Website hacked [password encryption]
Some t**t has hacked my site, so i went to phpmyadmin, deleted his account, but the f*****g t**t has deleted all other admin accounts, except the original god account. so i went to log into that one and my password wouldnt work, i am 99% sure its the right password. so i looked into the table to find one way encrpytion. so now im stuck. can i enter an unencrypted password into the pwd field and it will encrypt it for me? so that i can login? if not what else can i do?
cheers
ps. i used search already
Just delete the entry in the nuke_authors table and go to the admin.php and it will let you recreate the god admin account.
ah, cheers. but i had already sorted it mate. i just found an md5 encryptor via google, encrypted a new password and swapped it for the unknown one, prob solved. but thanks anyways
Alternativly we have one pre done in the Common Problems one, we have "Password" in its MD5 form so you can do exactly as you say and insert it into the code. I generaly find it easier to explain the method in my previous post especialy if the user is not very good with phpMyAdmin
Glad your sorted though
