Is there an easy way to reset my Admin password? Recently the forum prompted me to change the password, which I did. Now I cannot login.
I have used the Forget Password feature to try and recover my password, but the plot thickens. When I purchased this forum, I got it to replace another popular ASP forum. I used a script to import the users and posts from the previous forum. It so happens that the previous admin from the old forum came in as imported_Admin. Because I tried to maintain the same email address with the admin account, when I try to reset my password, it sends the userID and PW as imported_Admin and [email protected] etc.
The imported_admin does not have admin privileges so I cannot even delete a post when I am logged into it.
What is the easiest way I can retrieve my admin password?
Lastly, is there a way to prevent the forum from forcing people to change their passwords ever so often? There must be, as I havenot used this forum for some time, but when I return, my same password works fine.
Thank you
