How to recover admin password for WordPress

March 19th, 2009

In the beginning of this week, when I tried to log into my wordpress, I came to know my password has been modified. Then immediately as I opened my website, it was redirected to some other url. When I contacted my ISP, I came to know the server has been hit by brute force attack. Then this is what I have done:

- Copied index.php again from word press to my website so that it stops redirecting itself.

- In order to recover my admin password for my word press, I googled and came across this url: http://www.zappersoftware.com/Help/md5.php which helps generating password in MD5 format. I copied the MD5 password and connected to my word press database and modified my admin password. This time I included special characters as well :) for more protection.

Modify the View Sorting Order

September 14th, 2008

After creating a list, we may create views on it. Different views give us the desired look and feel we want. You may encounter a problem as listed below:

Problem

You click on your list and select a view to open up. You edit an item and when you return back either by clicking OK or Cancel, you will be navigated to a default view instead of the view you were in. This issue arises primarily when you access your sharepoint site out of the network i.e., through internet.

Solution

The solution is that you modify the sorting order of views in the drop down list. In order for that, you need to select your view as default view. By doing so, your view will be listed first in the drop down. The order will be modified.

In order to make your view default, goto Site Settings, then select your list and click on your view that you wanted to mark as default. In your view, you will see a checkbox saying “select this view as default”. Check that option and you are done.

What’s in the Blog ?

September 8th, 2008

Hi Folks,

Welcome to my blog. You will find solution to problems that have given me a tough time :) I would like to share these problems with you so that it may ease someone’s pain. Now a days I have been working on MOSS and it really sucks. The bad thing is that too less support from Microsoft is available for MOSS and good thing is that too much support is available from the professionals working out there on MOSS.

 

Cheers …
