Password Recover Mail of SMF

[Emiliano_Zapata]

Hi,

I have a yandex email account. I could not enter my forum and I thought password is old, i tried to send a link to my email to change my password but mail was not sent.

Do you have a solution for this problem?

Change your email address in the smf_members database table


OR Try this
I accidentally deleted my admin account. Now what do I do?

[Emiliano_Zapata]

Both did not solve my problem. I tried a gmail but it was not solved.

So because of a small problem, do i have to build this forum again?

I hope admin see this problem because it may be a end for SMF.

You can just register new account on the forum then change membergroup to 1 in the database in the smf_members table as well.

My forum is admin approval and I could not find how to approve it in phpMyAdmin. I hope there will not be end of SMF because of a small problem

Read https://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Administration_-_I_accidentally_lost_my_admin_account!_What_can_I_do
The section called I Need Admin to Activate the New Account before I Can Log i

[Kindred]

in phpmyadmin
in the smf_members table
set is_activated = 1 for the user that you want to activate.

(It's almost like it was written to make sense!)


oh, look, it was even listed in the FAQ that you were linked to earlier....

I solved my problem with createadmin.php. Thank you for help SMF crew!
