Re: Locked out of my website
First of all, change your admin directory name immediately.
Then AFTER you do that, start with https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/troub...ng/cant_login/ and go on to https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/troub...dmin_password/ if you need to.

Zen Cart 1.3.7 ? :ohmy: This might even be caused by an unsupported php version...
The docs don't really cover it because it's a dinosaur version, but it's pretty much the same using phpMyAdmin:
Code:
DELETE FROM admin WHERE admin_name = 'Admin';
INSERT INTO admin (admin_name, admin_email, admin_pass)
VALUES ('Admin', 'admin@localhost', '351683ea4e19efe34874b501fdbf9792:9b');
After you manage to reset your password, make sure you put an upgrade to the top of your priorities because 1.3.7 is not even a dinosaur anymore, it's already turned into oil...

Good catch. I keep forgetting to look at the top of the thread. Either that or it got lost in the lines on my bifocals.:P

It's quite alarming how many ZC websites I come across that have not been upgraded for years. Such sites are excellent fodder for hackers and cyber-criminals. Aside from a site not functioning, the risk to one's business is considerable.
Re: Locked out of my website
I just completely destroyed my website and reinstalled zencart so my webpage now just has the generic zencart page.
But I still cant log in to the admin panel and it wont even let me try and reset a new password through the forgotten password function. Note that a message pops up saying "Connection not secure" so it might have something to do with that but I cant even overide that message. Any ideas?
Re: Locked out of my website
You reinstalled v1.3.7, or a modern version?
Re: Locked out of my website
Unless you changed the settings when you ran zc_install, the settings should be https:// and you should be accessing them using https and have an SSL in place for the site.
