I need some help with my WordPress site. I’ve forgotten my wp-admin login password and, unfortunately, I no longer have access to the email that was used for the account. I’m working on this site locally using the Local app. Can anyone guide me on how to change the admin password directly from the database or any other method to regain access to my WordPress dashboard? Any step-by-step instructions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your assistance!
