As you have probably seen by my somewhat regular postings, I am a newbie to EE.
The company that I work has all of their web sites using EE and some of the sites have not been updated or worked on for years.
Version 2.3.1
I have been asked to update an entry on one particular web site but the credentials for logging into the domain.com/system are not working.
I have access to the db and I have tried to duplicate the member with admin group id = 1, followed by going through the forgot password steps, except this time, it should be going to my email address.
I am not receiving any emails at all from EE to reset
I have made the duplicate entry with the exception of the email address within the table exp_members
Is there somewhere else in the tables that I alter to make this possible?
Is there a way that I can use the salt, crypt_key and password to retrieve the password set by the former admin?
As usual, thanks in advance
