# How to change Wordpress admin password

## There are few ways to change password

### Via Wordpress admin panel

If you have access to the admin panel, log in and click on **"Update Profile"**

### Without access to the admin panel

The password-reset page is generally located at:

[http://domain.tld/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword](http://domain.tld/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword)

where “domain.tld” is the location of your WordPress installation.

Once you request a new password, an email is sent to the email account with which you registered. In that email is a link to reset your password, which is finally sent back to your email account. 

### Changing Wordpress password via phpMyadmin

1. Log in your control panel

2. Go to **phpMyadmin**

3. Browse the database created for your Wordpress and find the “**wp\\\_users**” table

4. Click on the user you want to edit

5. Go to **"user\\\_pass"** and under Function chose **MD5**

6. Enter your new pass and click **"Go"**
