How to find your Login Credentials
This article will walk you through locating your sFTP details, WP Admin and your site’s database credentials.
You will need:
- your Pendeo username and password
- access to an sFTP client (click here for a list of FTP & sFTP clients for download)
There are two parts to locating your login credentials. The first part will be gaining access to your site files through a FTP client and the second will be retrieving your Pendeo database password.
Part 1: Configuring your FTP client
-
- Step 1 – Login in to your Pendeo control panel, locate your product you want to work with and Click “Manage”
- Step 2 – Scroll to sFTP and click “Reset sFTP Password”.
- Step 3 – Configure your FTP account with your sFTP details.
Remain logged into your FTP client as you will need it to retrieve your Database password.
Part 2: Locating your Pendeo database password
To login to your Pendeo database you need to find your password which will be located in your wp-config.php file. We provide your username and the link to your database in your Pendeo control panel.
- Step 1 – In your FTP client, click the root directory “WordPress” and scroll to the file “wp-config.php”. Click to open (edit) this file.
- Step 2 – In your wp-config.php file, three lines down from the top it states: define (‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘THIS_IS_YOUR_PASSWORD’); Copy your password and store it safely in a password vault.
- Step 3 – Go back to your Pendeo control panel, click the “Admin URL” link in the MySQL section to open your Pendeo database. Enter your login credentials.
- Step 4 – That’s it! You should have signed in to the Adminer with your username listed and the password retrieved from your wp-config.php file.
