I need help, I forgot password

[2008paul]

I've created a forum witch is using SMF. I've forgot what password I made for my account and I can't seem to find any way to find what I set my password as.

(I forgot my password) is not working for some reason and I ain't getting a e-mail so I can reset password.

I'm on full hosting so I can access all the files. So what I need to know is, how can I find out my password I made?

Thanks
Paul

Did you check your Spam box? I don't think you can do anything other than that...

Yes.
No email what so ever.

Is they no way I can look at the tabs in phpmyadmin to look what the password is set as or something?

I believe you should be able to look in the database and find it, never done it but I'm sure there are some tuts for it.

edit: here is a tutorial I found for it:

Log in cPanel and click on 'phpMyAdmin' from the Databases box.
On the top left box select the database of your SMF. Then click the edit button for the 'smf_members' table --> Find the administrator user and click the pencil button to edit it --> On the field 'passwd' where something like this will stand 'e6053eb8d35e02ae40beeeacef203c1a' change it with the one below. Then click the 'OK' button.

Now your password is changed to sg123 and you can use it to log in. Then change your password to a new one.
