    Some of my sites were hacked this morning, so I'm changing all my hosting account passwords, but now that I did, I'm having trouble with one that has aMember installed. I can't get into aMember admin:
    Cannot connect to MySQL: Access denied for user 'xxxxxxx'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
    I don't know where to go to update the information.

    I would really, really appreciate a helping hand so the site can be up and running properly. Thanks!

    To reset admin password go to http://manual.amember.com/FAQ#Reset_Admin_Password and follow instructions there.

    To change the sql username and passwords download 'config.inc.php' change the username and passwords there to the new ones and you should be back working ok.
