So, you're "admin" and you forgot your password. Yeah, we've all been there.

1. Fire up PHPMyAdmin or get into your db somehow.

2. Go into the _users table. This is usually mos_users, but there's the option to make your own prefix on the db tables, so you may have changed it.

3. Look at all the users. Find the admin one and update the password to the following, which equals "admin":

21232f297a57a5a743894a0e4a801fc3

4. Your password should now be:

admin
