In case of forgotten password this snippet can be used to create new user from WordPress backend. Insert code to functions.php of the used theme.
function custom_create_admin_user() {
$username = 'user';
$password = 'password';
$email = 'user@example.com';
if ( ! username_exists( $username ) && ! email_exists( $email ) ) {
$user_id = wp_create_user( $username, $password, $email );
if ( ! is_wp_error( $user_id ) ) {
$user = get_user_by( 'id', $user_id );
$user->remove_role( 'subscriber' ); // New users default to 'subscriber'
$user->add_role( 'administrator' ); // Set the new user role to 'administrator'
}
}
}
add_action( 'init', 'custom_create_admin_user' );
But be careful to choose strong password and correct email.
You are doing it on your own risk and responsibility.
