    Open up config_vbseo.php and find where it says "define('VBSEO_ADMIN_PASSWORD',".

    Next to that, should be an MD5 of your existing password. Now all you need to do is delete that and paste the MD5 of your NEW password. If you don't know it, type your password in here and click "MD5 Encode".

    Instead of that, simply delete it (make it blank).

    The next time you load up vBSEO's CP, it will ask for your new password automatically.

    Where the file should be? Have only vbseo_sitemap_config.php found

    vbseo/resources/xml/config.xml

    about 10 lines up from the bottom you will find the name and value pairs for the md5 hash on your password. Blank out the value tags, save the file, and then visit vbseocp.php and it will prompt you to save a new password.

    I have 3.6 and have tried this method to reset my password and it still will not let me in the CP. Any help as to what I may be doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.
