Can't login

So, I logged out of my live site xoops 2.5.6 to see what anonymous could see and now I can't log in again

it won't accept my password

I used the lost password function and it says that email does not belong to a user

I went into the mysql and I am there are user 1, the email is correct

I tried to change the password there, and it didn't work

HELP!!!

I can't recall right now how XOOPS stores it's passwords - have you saved the hash that you changed?

What modules are active?

Re: Can

Is your user auth_method still set to xoops?

SELECT FROM 'yourprefix_config' WHERE 'conf_name' 'auth_method';

The conf_value should be 'xoops'

I was asking this because the profile module can change some registration things.
