    You need to manually delete the value in the config file, save, and then re-visit vbseocp.php and you will be prompted to save a new one.

    3.3.x directions:

    3.5 is the same concept, only it's in vbseo/resources/xml/config.xml and an xml value pair instead of a definition directive.

    I was confused because of the new filetype, so thanks for the thread OP, and thanks, MARCO!

    Um.....which variable should I edit the password out? I mean, looking at the config file - holy variables batman!

    EDIT: Okay, I found it: Its all the way at the bottom under "VBSEO_ADMIN_PASSWORD" for your information.
