wordpress Reset Admin Password in Database

by in , 0

Forget your admin password and don't have access to the email account it's under? If you can get access to phpMyAdmin (or anything you can run mySQL commands), you can update it there.

UPDATE `wp_users` SET `user_pass` = MD5( 'new_password_here' ) WHERE `wp_users`.`user_login` = "admin_username";

Just replace new_password_here with the new password and admin_username with the real admin accounts usename.

wordpress Remove Whitespace from Function Output

by in , 0

In WordPress, there are many functions which output things for you. For example, wp_list_pages() outputs a list of all your published pages. The HTML markup it spits out is pretty nicely formatted (meaning: has line breaks and indenting).

There are some circumstances where all that "whitespace" in the formatting is undesirable. Like 1) it's all the more characters to deliver and 2) closing "the gap" in older versions of IE.

If the function supports a way to return a string (rather than immediately echo it), you can use a regex to remove the space:

<?php
   echo preg_replace('/>\s+</m', '><', wp_list_pages('echo=0'));
?>

wordpress Remove the 28px Push Down from the Admin Bar

by in , 0

For your functions.php file:

  add_action('get_header', 'my_filter_head');

  function my_filter_head() {
    remove_action('wp_head', '_admin_bar_bump_cb');
  }

By default, if you are seeing the admin bar as a logged in WordPress user, CSS like this will be output in your head (output in the wp_head() function):

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
	html { margin-top: 28px !important; }
	* html body { margin-top: 28px !important; }
</style>

This is normally a good thing, as it doesn't cover parts of your site then with its fixed-position-ness. But it can also be weird if you use absolute positioning for things. As they will be different depending on if the bar is there or not. Using the code above to remove the bump CSS will make the bar cover the top bit of your site, but at least the positioning will be consistent.
