Reset password directly in the database

Permalink
Hi,

I am looking for a way to reset a users password directly in the database. I cant use the email facility because for whatever reason its stopped working (and the only user needs to login to check the email settings).

I have found lots of other posts that reffer to finding config/site.php, but I am running 5.7 and this file does not exist.

Any thoughts would be useful.

Thanks

Its for 5.6, but similar tricks can work in 5.7

Hi,

I have just tried this, but I am finding that the "Logs" table has no rows in it even after using the password reset link.

I am getting this:

select * from Logs;
Empty set (0.00 sec)
