I have lost my Admin. PW to my Coppermine Gallery somehow. Can anyone tell me the best way to retrieve it?

You can set yourself a new password using phpmyadmin.

Login to phpmyadmin via cpanel
locate your coppermine database
locate your prefix_users table
click on browse
edit the admin account (this probably user_id 1)
change the dropdown box beside the user_password field to MD5 and type in the new password you want.
submit the forum and you're done.

If you are not sure about any of that then backup your db first.

An alternative is to grab adminpass.php from the coppermine forums and use that to reset the password.

Nibbler, worked perfectly in php.myadmin. Thank you very sincerely. I want you to know that I appreciate the help and the conciseness of your reply.
