AnonymousDev Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 Hey everyone, Just wondering the best way to get in and change my password as I've been locked out due to an apparent password change. I'm not really sure how this happened but I'm guessing some kind of hack? I am currently logged in to my forum I just can't get into the Admin CP. I haven't had to deal with this in a long long time. Should I be going into my db and updating my password in there? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks :)
AnonymousDev Posted February 25, 2019 Author Posted February 25, 2019 It seems a simple password reset got me back in, pretty scary that my password can be changed though.
opentype Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 Check the profile page in the ACP. You can see if the password was changed in the “Account Activity” and you can check IP addresses and devices, which accessed this account. This should tell you if your ACP was compromised.
