If you know your username or the email account in your profile, you can use the “lost password” feature of WordPress.

• Go to your WordPress Login page (something like https://yoursite.com/wordpress/wp-admin
• Click on the “Lost your password?” link
• You will be taken to a page to enter some details. Enter your username or the email address on file for that account.
• Wait happily as your new password is emailed to you.
• Once you get your new password, login to your profile page and change this password to something you can remember.
