    If you are using vBSEO 3.5.x series, please follow these steps:


    * First you must locate your vbseo/resources/xml/config.xml file.


    * Download it to your PC, then open the file with a text editor and search for something similar to this:


    <setting>
    <name>VBSEO_ADMIN_PASSWORD</name>
    <value>e7ea6f5be6c2d2d64538c7a6qwe87weas</value>
    </setting>


    * Yours will be the same except for the random string (e7ea6f5be6c2d2d64538c7a6qwe87weas).


    * Remove that from the line so it now looks like this:


    <setting>
    <name>VBSEO_ADMIN_PASSWORD</name>
    <value></value>
    </setting>


    * Upload the file to the web server.


    * Open your vBSEO control panel. When you try to log in, you will see the option to add in your new password and confirm it.


    * Finally, CHMOD the file back to 644 when you are finished.






    If you are using vBSEO 3.3.x series, please follow these steps:


    * First you must locate your vB-root/includes/config_vbseo.php file.


    * Download it to your PC, then open the file with a text editor and search for something similar to this:


    // ****** CONFIG PANEL PASSWORD ******
    define('VBSEO_ADMIN_PASSWORD', 'e7ea6f5be6c2d2d64538c7a6qwe87weas');


    * Yours will be the same except for the random string (e7ea6f5be6c2d2d64538c7a6qwe87weas).


    * Remove that from the line so it now looks like this:


    // ****** CONFIG PANEL PASSWORD ******
    define('VBSEO_ADMIN_PASSWORD', '');


    * Upload the file to the web server.


    * Open your vBSEO control panel. When you try to log in, you will see the option to add in your new password and confirm it.


    * Finally, CHMOD the file back to 644 when you are finished.




    If you follow these steps correctly, you will be able to reset your password and login again to your vBSEO CP.

    Hi Emon,

    Yes, that's right. The above steps for vBSEO 3.5.x are still valid for 3.6.x+
