Concerned browser(s) : Mozilla Firefox
Who the problem concerns : Yourself

Description of problem

And so I cannot log in / do anything.

History: I deleted my forum, regretted it, brought it back. But in the course of being attacked (which led to deleting it just to deny attackers access), I changed the founder password to something so random and lengthy it could never be guessed! Not even by me unfortunately.

So when I regretted deleting, and managed to make it reappear, that's great, but without the founder account, it just says it's locked. Members can post. But no moderation is possible.

And the founder's account is unreachable.

I need to access the founder account. Change the password to one I can use. Is this possible?

If you restore a forum, it reset the password and username to the date you created the forum.
