Admin Login

Administration login

To access the administration back-end, you must login with admin username and password you created when you first installed the software.

The administration login does not have a "Forgot your password?" utility. If you lost or forgotten the admin login information you must create a new one. To create a new one follow this steps:

1. Empty the webid_adminusers table. You can do it from phpMyAdmin or from the MySQL monitor typing the following query: DELETE FROM webid_adminusers; (Note: change webid_ to whatever you set the prefix to when you installed the script in most cases it will remain as webid_)
2. Access the admin login page: since there are no admin users in the database, WeBid will ask you to create a new admin user (a blue login box is displayed).
3. When you submit the blue login box, you are redirected back to the login page but a green login box will appear.
4. You can now login using the username/password you just created.

You can have more than one admin user each one will have its own username and password. See Admin user management for more information.
