I have been unable to get my password recognized within the Admin log-in. I have edited my password.php as per the support page.
I am using a GoDaddy Linux host with Safe mode OFF.
My password.php is as follows (password changed of course and removed tags)
-----------------------------------------------------------
// Instructions on setting passwords here: www.photo.gallery/support/passwords/
// To enable your admin password, remove the double slash in the second line below and change the password.
$data['guest'] = 'guest';
$data['not_my_password'] = '*';
-----------------------------------------------------------
I have tried changing the * to admin but it doesn't work either.
What am I missing?
Thank you for your time!

I think its quite simple. I think you just misinterpreted what the documentation is trying to say. Let me try to clarify things for you:
//$data['admin_password_here'] = '*';
Simply set your own unique password where it says admin_password_here, and remove the double slash // to enable it. Example:
$data['bubblegum321'] = '*';
The //$data...etc... just means that this code isn't being implemented, its like a comment tag. For you to implement your admin password you need to deleted the // to make it no longer a "comment" code, and actually a password determining code.
Lets use your example:
$data['guest'] = 'guest';
$data['not_my_password'] = '*';
In this case, your admin password is: not_my_password
The * represents the level of access, in this case, admin-leveled access.
If the user types in guest for password, then they will have a guest-leveld access.
$data['password goes here'] = 'guest';
$data['password goes here'] = '*';
Maybe that will clarify things.
The * just determines the level of access, for e.g. if you
//$data['admin_password_here'] = '*';
