How to Reset Your WordPress Password

Wordpress user

Need to reset your WordPress password? No problem.

Start by logging into your dashboard. If you have a WordPress website, your administrative login URL is usually yourdomain.com/wp-admin, but it could also be a custom login URL, like yourdomain.com/login.

Once you’ve logged in, you can go to your profile. If you see the toolbar at the top, you can hover over your name, then click “Edit Profile”.

If you can’t find this, you can just go to “Users” in the dashboard on the sidebar, then find your user and click on “Edit”.

Once you are on your user profile, scroll down to the “Account Management” section and click “Set New Password”.

Once you’ve hit “Set New Password”, you can enter your new password. WordPress will rate your password strength—the higher a rating you get, the more secure your password will be.
