Hi,

I forgot my admin password and cannot login to the admin section. I found imagevue\config\users.php file on the server. $users['user_name']['password']='hashed password';

I tried replacing hashed password with md5 hashed password but it doesnot work.

How do I reset admin password?

If you read comment on top of the users file, it says there that Imagevue stores passwords as SHA1 hash.

You can use online SHA1 hasher at http://www.md5.br-design.co.uk/
which is listed in users.php file too.

Thats what I first tried. Did you test that link? That link does not work.

Sorry, try another one:

http://sha1-hash-online.waraxe.us/

Basically, just google for 'sha1 online hash calculator', we'll fix the link in Imagevue meanwhile.
