Adding a WordPress admin account to the database

I recently had a situation where the admin account on a WordPress installed site got removed or merged into another user account. Obviously WordPress doesn’t allow you to create new admin accounts outside the CMS so I was stuck and locked out from doing anything. Thankfully after much searching I found this great blog post which gave a clear step-by-step instructions on how to resolve the issue using phpMyAdmin. Thankfully the issue was resolved in less than 5 minutes and with no hassle. Well worth bookmarking the article as you may need it one day.

The following time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I mean, I know it was my option to learn, but I really thought youd have one thing fascinating to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you can fix for those who werent too busy on the lookout for attention. Bye! http://bestforexsystemblog.com.
