How to Change Your WordPress Administrator Password Using WP Toolkit Print

WP Toolkit can change the administrator credentials associated with a WordPress installation.

  1. Open WP Toolkit: cPanel → Domains → WP Toolkit or Plesk → WordPress.
  2. Find the WordPress website.
  3. Open Setup or the administrator-account settings shown on the site card.
  4. Enter a strong, unique administrator password.
  5. Save the change.

Afterward, you can normally sign in directly at https://example.com/wp-admin/.

Your WordPress administrator password is separate from your hosting-panel password (cPanel or Plesk), email password, client-area password, and WordPress database password. Changing one does not automatically change the others.

If WP Toolkit was attached to a manually installed or migrated site, updating the administrator information can also help WP Toolkit regain normal management access when its stored credentials are no longer current.

Panel navigation and availability: cPanel WP Toolkit feature guidance; Plesk WP Toolkit guide.
