If you happen to forget your admin password (you know, the one that you made so complex no one including yourself can remember it?) never fear! PrestaShop has an easy way to reset it so you can access your admin dashboard once again. <\/p>\n

How to reset your admin password<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Visit your PrestaShop admin dashboard login screen. This is typically something like https:\/\/example.com\/admin123<\/em>.\n
    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \"\"<\/a>\n
    <\/div>\n

    Click on the link that reads Forgot Password<\/strong><\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \"\"<\/a>\n
    <\/div>\n

    You are presented with a screen to enter your admin email address. Enter that and then click Send<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  4. \"\"<\/a>\n
    <\/div>\n

    An email will be sent to that email address along with a brand new password. You can now log into the admin dashboard and then change the password from there if you wish.<\/p>\n
