if you see a blank page then you have some typos in the addon I mentioned. make sure that you have used it correctly.

I provide you with anoter addon, this will change username and password alltogheter.
to avoid typos I will put it on my site. dload it and copy the file into the addon folder
this is the code

Code:

&lt;?php
if ($_GET['changepass'] =="yes")
{
	$new_user = 'meadmin';
	$new_pass = 'temp';
	$new_pass = md5($new_pass );
	$update = sql_query("update ".$pixelpost_db_prefix."config set admin='".$new_user."', password='$new_pass' where admin='".$cfgrow['admin']."'");
	}
?>

it will set username as meadmin and password as temp

I runned the new script and the blog 'came back' but still cannot log into the admin area...

I get this:

Database error:
Updating the new password failed.

and

The username you have mentioned is not the same as the admin user of Pixelpost.

It is not actually my blog, I'm doing this for a friend, this is his address
http://montanez.co.uk/pablo/www/index.php

if you'd like to check it yourself (if you are so kind and have time) I can give you the server username and password by email

Thx

yes. I would be happy if you could help.

I tried the address and I wanted to translate it into English using google and it prompt me

Code:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/montanez/public_html/pablo/www/index.php on line 720

I should look into the admin/index.php
did you make any changes/modification?

I didn't underestand how, but the password is changed in the way I told you. I logged on into the admin page of yours (your friend's) and changed the password. and logged out and logged in again and all was safe. I don't have your email thus I'll put this message here in case you want to contact me to have the new password

I think your servers was doing something like maintenance that prevents updates and not the server is free to do things...

please PM me as soon as possible. (push the PM ME button below this message!)

UPDATE:
there is an extra '>' in side your template or index.php that is shown in the main photoblog page!

the problem was:
After changing the password with the above code I provided you tried to change password with password recovery thing instead of doing that in the admin panel / option section. The password recovery has a bug that will be corrected in the official release. but since then it won't work and you should read this forum if you want to correct it.

That's just simple as replacing a line in admin/index.php with a correct one.
