DO NOT give out any FTP passwords to anyone! There is no reason to do so! If you need help badly enough, create a temporary FTP account that is restricted to only the files that you need help with and give the information for that. Giving out FTP information can be very dangerous!

Then either EM isn't installed or you're not in the right place.ExarVaughn wrote:Use the > icon to get to the page with the EM_password field on it <-- No EM_anything found
Re: Easymod's password ?
OK, the advice given was never going to work.
Go into the MySQL database.
Find the table phpbb_config
Then find the entry "EM_password"
It will contain an encrypted version of the password.
Edit it, and replace the encryption with:
This changes the password to a blank password (just press enter).
Then you can just change the password to something that you will remember, in the EasyMOD Settings in the ACP.

I didn't take my time to install and understand phpMyAdmin.
My advice for beginners like me: re-install EasyMod following these instructions.
It's easy and quickly done.
Re: Easymod's password ?
Well if you didn't take the time to install phpMyAdmin, then there would be no installed phpBB, or EM for that matter.
I assume you just don't have access to phpMyAdmin.
