Recentemente, uno dei nostri utenti ci ha chiesto come resettare la password di amministrazione di WordPress su localhost? Se si utilizza WordPress su localhost e si dimentica la password, non è possibile resettarla via e-mail. In questo articolo, vi mostreremo come reimpostare la password di amministrazione di WordPress su localhost.
Perché la reimpostazione della password non funziona su localhost?
Il termine localhost viene utilizzato per descrivere un server locale non disponibile al pubblico. Ad esempio, il vostro computer personale.
Molti utenti di WordPress installano WordPress su localhost (nel proprio computer) per testare le modifiche, progettare siti web, provare nuovi plugin e persino imparare WordPress.
Se non avete ancora provato, consultate il nostro tutorial su come installare WordPress sul vostro computer Windows utilizzando WAMP.
Gli utenti Mac possono seguire le istruzioni del nostro tutorial su come installare WordPress in locale su Mac utilizzando MAMP.
Ecco il problema che alcuni principianti potrebbero incontrare.
Se dimenticate la password di amministrazione di WordPress mentre lavorate su localhost, NON sarete in grado di reimpostarla utilizzando la normale opzione di reimpostazione della password di WordPress.
L’opzione di reimpostazione della password invia per e-mail un link per reimpostare la password di WordPress. Per inviare le e-mail, il vostro server deve abilitare la funzione di posta.
Questa funzione è disattivata per impostazione predefinita sui server locali, il che significa che WordPress non sarà in grado di inviare l’e-mail di reimpostazione della password.
Ma non preoccupatevi, c’è un modo per reimpostare la password di WordPress su localhost.
Siete pronti? Iniziamo.

Reimpostare la password di amministrazione di WordPress su localhost
Utilizzeremo phpMyAdmin per reimpostare la password su localhost. Basta visitare il pannello di controllo phpMyAdmin digitando questo URL nella barra degli indirizzi del browser:
http://localhost/phpmyadmin/
Vi verrà chiesto di fornire il nome utente e la password di MySQL. In genere, il nome utente è root senza password.
Una volta effettuato l’accesso, è necessario selezionare il database di WordPress.
Una volta selezionato il database, verrà visualizzato un elenco di tabelle del database di WordPress. Fate clic sul link Sfoglia accanto alla tabella degli utenti di WordPress.
Ora verrà visualizzato l’elenco delle voci della tabella utenti. Il numero di righe dipende dal numero di utenti registrati sul vostro sito WordPress.
Successivamente, è necessario fare clic sul link Modifica accanto al nome utente dell’utente amministratore.
Si aprirà un modulo in cui è possibile modificare le informazioni memorizzate nel database di WordPress per quell’utente.
Scorrete fino al campo user_pass e digitate una nuova password nella colonna “value”. Successivamente è necessario selezionare MD5 nella colonna “function”.
Non dimenticate di fare clic sul pulsante Vai in basso per salvare le modifiche.
È tutto, ora potete accedere al vostro sito WordPress su localhost utilizzando la nuova password.
Se per qualche motivo avete difficoltà a seguire il metodo phpMyAdmin, consultate la nostra guida su come creare un utente amministratore di WordPress utilizzando il file functions.php. Aprite semplicemente il file functions.php del vostro tema e incollate il codice riportato nell’articolo qui sopra e sarete a posto.
Speriamo che questo articolo vi abbia aiutato a capire come resettare la password di amministrazione di WordPress su localhost. Potreste anche voler consultare la nostra guida su come spostare WordPress dal server locale al sito live.

WPBeginner Support says
The most common issue would be if you did not set the function to MD5 or click go to apply the changes, you would want to ensure you have done that correctly.

Hi…
I am so thankful for such great information you provide. I have bookmarked your site a while back.
I have been working on a site in wordpress using xampp on the Apache local server. Just recently, I am not able to login on the admin page. I have managed to create a user name and password that works on about 95% of all sites requiring me to register. I also created a file that lists all my login info for everywhere I need to login, including the WP admin login page, IF I ever forget that info.
I have read this page (https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-reset-wordpress-admin-password-on-localhost/) and watched the video, also. The only problem is that when I click on the wp_users in phpMyadmin, I get this error- ‘#1932 – Table ‘bitnami_wordpress.wp_users’ doesn’t exist in engine.’
Am I reduced to re-installing WordPress, or is there another way around it?
I have tried restoring my computer (using system restore) to various past restore points, but with no luck. Can you help me with this?
I would be so thankful!!! I have put months of work into designing a site to launch, and I HAVE exported everything to a file quite a few times using WordPress import plugin (something like that).
Could you provide a solution?
Thank you so much…
Anthony
