WordPressデータベースにMySQL経由で管理ユーザーを追加する方法

家の鍵を忘れてしまい、外に出られなくなったことはありませんか?WordPressサイトからロックアウトされると、そんな気分になることがあります。特にハッカーに管理者アカウントを削除された場合は、とてもイライラします。でもご心配なく。

あなたのサイトを秘密の裏口のある家のように考えてみてください。その裏口とはサイトのデータベースで、通常はMySQLコードを使用してアクセスします。MySQLコードというと複雑に聞こえるかもしれませんが、裏側でサイトに変更を加えるための指示書のようなものです。

この投稿では、MySQLを使用して、あなたのサイトに新しい管理者アカウントを作成する方法を紹介する。これで、ハッカーを締め出し、コントロールを取り戻すことができます。

How to Add an Admin User to the WordPress Database via MySQL

なぜMySQL経由でWordPressデータベースに管理ユーザーを追加するのか?

あるユーザーのサイトがハッキングされ、そのユーザーの管理者アカウントがデータベースから削除されるという問題に遭遇したことがあります。これにより、WordPressサイトからロックアウトされました。

私たちは、WordPressサイトに直接新しい管理ユーザーを作成することで、彼らのウェブサイトにアクセスできるようにすることができました。これは、ウェブブラウザを使ってMySQLデータベースを管理できるウェブベースのツール、phpMyAdminを使って行いました。

ハッカーや単にパスワードを忘れてしまったためにWordPressの管理エリアからロックアウトされてしまった場合。

ただし、MySQLの編集を行う前に、必ずデータベースのバックアップを取る必要があります。その後、サイトにログインできるようになったら、ハッキングされた WordPress サイトを修正するための初心者ガイドに従ってください。

ということで、MySQLを使ってWordPressのデータベースに管理ユーザーを追加する方法を見てみよう。

phpMyAdminでWordPressデータベースに管理ユーザーを追加する

phpMyAdminは、ほとんどのトップWordPressホスティングサービス会社にプリインストールされています。ホスティングアカウントのcPanelダッシュボードのデータベースセクションで見つけることができます。

Bluehostのコントロールパネルのスクリーンショットです:

Selecting phpMyAdmin on cPanel

アイコンをクリックすると、phpMyAdminインターフェースが開きます。左のカラムからWordPressデータベースを選択する必要があります。

その後、phpMyAdminはWordPressデータベースのすべてのテーブルを表示します。wp_usersテーブルとwp_usermetaテーブルに変更を加えることになります。

You Will Be Making Changes to the wp_users and wp_usermeta Tables

wp_usersテーブルへのユーザーの追加

まず、wp_usersテーブルを見つけてクリックする。これにより、現在テーブルにリストされているユーザーが表示されます。

下のスクリーンショットで、デモサイトのテーブルにはユーザーIDが1と2の2つあることに注目してください。デモサイトに新規ユーザーを作成する場合、このIDは一意である必要があるので、数字の3を入力します。

画面上部の’Insert’タブをクリックし、新規管理ユーザーの情報を挿入する必要があります。

Click the Insert Tab

インサーターフォームのフィールドに以下の情報を追加する:

  • ID:ユニークな番号を選ぶ(この例では3を使う)
  • user_login: ログイン時に使用するユーザー名。
  • user_pass:パスワードを追加し、機能メニューでMD5を選択してください(以下のスクリーンショットを参照)。
  • user_nicename: ユーザーのフルネームまたはニックネーム
  • user_email: ユーザーのメール・アドレス
  • user_url: あなたのサイトのアドレス
  • user_registered: カレンダーでユーザーが登録された日時を選択
  • user_activation_key: 空白のまま
  • user_status: 0に設定する。
  • display_name: ユーザーのフルネームまたは表示名
Fill In the Fields for the New User

完了したら、必ず「Go」ボタンをクリックして新規ユーザーを保存してください。

wp_usermetaテーブルにユーザーを追加する

ここで、wp_usermetaテーブルを見つけてクリックする必要がある。その後、前のステップと同じように「挿入」タブをクリックしてください。

次に、以下の情報をインサーターフォームに追加する必要がある:

  • unmeta_id: 空白のまま(自動生成されます)
  • user_id: 前のステップで使用したユーザーID
  • meta_key: これはwp_capabilitiesでなければならない。
  • meta_value: insert this:a:1:{s:13: "administrator";s:1: "1";}.
Fill In the Fields for the New User

その後、下にスクロールすると、2行目のフィールドが見つかるはずです。以下の情報を追加する必要がある:

  • unmeta_id: 空白のまま(自動生成されます)
  • user_id: 前のステップで使用したユーザーID
  • meta_key:wp_user_levelを入力する必要があります。
  • メタ値: 10
Fill In the Fields for the New User

フィールドに情報を入力し終えたら、「Go」ボタンをクリックしてください。おめでとうございます、これで新しい管理者ユーザー名が作成されました!

これで、このユーザーに指定したユーザー名とパスワードを使ってWordPress管理エリアにログインできるはずです。

ログインしたらすぐに、ユーザー ” すべてのユーザーに移動し、作成したばかりのユーザー名をクリックする必要があります。

Navigate to Users » All Users and Edit the New User

ここで、何も変更せずにページを一番下までスクロールし、「保存」ボタンをクリックする。

これにより、WordPressは作成したユーザーをクリーンアップし、必要な追加情報を追加します。

SQLクエリーを使ったWordPressデータベースへの管理ユーザー追加

もしあなたが開発者なら、コードを使ってプロセスをスピードアップすることができる。

このSQLクエリーをデータベースにドロップするだけです:

INSERT INTO `databasename`.`wp_users` (`ID`, `user_login`, `user_pass`, `user_nicename`, `user_email`, `user_url`, `user_registered`, `user_activation_key`, `user_status`, `display_name`) VALUES ('3', 'demo', MD5('demo'), 'Your Name', 'test@example.com', 'http://www.example.com/', '2022-09-01 00:00:00', '', '0', 'Your Name');
 
 
INSERT INTO `databasename`.`wp_usermeta` (`umeta_id`, `user_id`, `meta_key`, `meta_value`) VALUES (NULL, '3', 'wp_capabilities', 'a:1:{s:13:"administrator";s:1:"1";}');
 
 
INSERT INTO `databasename`.`wp_usermeta` (`umeta_id`, `user_id`, `meta_key`, `meta_value`) VALUES (NULL, '3', 'wp_user_level', '10');

databasename’を使用するデータベースに変更することを本当に〜してもよいですか?

また、最初の方法で説明したように、他の値を新規ユーザーに必要な値に変更することも忘れないでください。

  4. Mary Janis

    This info is outdated cause HG format has all changed. Where the heck is wp_user?

  5. Susan Marshall VA

    Thank you so much for this. Just had a client that locked herself out of her site and I was able to get her back in with these instructions.

  6. Kumar Mritunjay

    I’ve used this on my websites. Works like a charm…very easy to follow!

    Thank you for this amazing time saver technique.

  7. sara asadiha

    i did everything u said, but it did not work :( what else should i do?

  8. Peter Gough

  10. Ayesi

    Really good, everything works perfect, thanks a million!!

  11. Stella

    Thanks a lot! This saved my day. Whew!

  12. Nilo Velez

    I don’t now if it is an update to WordPress data structure, but I’ve just encounter a site in which I’ve had to enter the wp_options meta_key values as:

    [table_prefix]capabilities instead of wp_capabilities
    [table_prefix]user_level instead of wp_user_level

    I leave this here as it might be of help.

    • Takis Pan

      You sir are awesome!

      I guess it uses the database prefix but in case the site has been moved, or someone changed the prefix from “wp_” to something else, capabilities and user_level should be changed accordingly.

    • Abraham Quilca

      Thanks, this comment helped a lot.

      I had to double-check and get the exact table_prefix value from our wp-config.php file. Ours meta_key values were correct except for capitalization. I believe some hosting companies with single-click wordpress installs will set their own table_prefixes, so be sure to check for that as well.

    • Cheryl

      this worked for me too, thank you Abraham

  13. Loren Helgeson

    I’ve used this on three different websites so far. Works like a charm!

    Thank you for this amazing time saver.

  14. Steve Day

    BRILLIANT!!!
    Thank you – saved my day :-)

  15. Kirst

    It looks like there’s been a database change in the most recent version of WP, so this post may need to be updated.

    I’s been an awesome resource, thank you!

    • Loren Helgeson

      I can’t verify this with previous versions of Wordpress, but I just tested this with the latest version of Wordpress, and it worked fine for me. Can anyone also confirm if this was a fluke?

  16. Abid

    I have done same sql quires to make admin user. User created and logged but showing Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page error. Please help me about this.

  17. Jade

    THANK YOU SO MUCH! I had an issue with WooCommerce Product Vendors, where I have applied as a vendor while logged in as admin. From that point on I couldn’t log in and I was receiving a message”You will be notified once your account has been approved” O_o

    Previously I had to re-install WP because of this!!! Now I found your post and it was such a help!!! Thank you so much for sharing this :) x

  18. Ben

    Didn’t work at all for me. I get a “ERROR: Incorrect username or password.”

    Yeah yeah, I’ve check it. Password and user are correct.

    So what now? I used to have admin access but now only have a lower basic level that doesn’t show the user settings.

  19. Loren Helgeson

    This worked perfectly on the past two sites I’ve had to use it on.

  20. SHAILENDRA RAJAVARAM

    Awesome….saved me tons of hardship like for other issues. I saw that for some reason all the administrators in my site became something else…

    GREAT HELP !!

    The guys who discussed about wp_prefixes…..perfect….

    Ah !!!

  21. Werner Ullrich

    For me it is a great helpful post. I have modified this SQL script and re-animated my door to the administrator entry of my wordpress homepage. Thanks.

    Okay this YouTube video is much enhanced than last one, this one has pleasant picture feature as well as audio.

  23. Jerry L

    I wanted to change several “Nicename” entries to other values than that user’s Login ID. From within PhpMyAdmin, I exported the “wp_users” table.

    Then I made the necessary changes in my code editor.

    Then after saving a backup of the original users table and the entire database, I “Import”ed just the “wp_users” table back into the database using PhpMyAdmin.

    Worked fine for me.

  24. Brad

    Worked like a charm! Thanks!

  25. kali

    I followed this and was able to login but cannot go to the dashboard. I get this error: You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.

    • Oleg

      I have the same issue.

      • Eileen

        I had the same problem but in wp_usermeta where we are told to write:
        meta_value – insert this: a:1:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;}

        I changed the value to:
        a:1:{s:13:”administrator”;b:1;}

        and it worked. I found this value in the corresponding value further up in the table for the original administrator account. Check your table and see if there are any other previous administrators, and copy the same value (just in case it differs to my value).

        • Mark P

          This worked for me thank you!

  26. Ardestani

    It works , thank you , really thank you

  27. Jason Coleman

    This didn’t work for me :(

    • Daniel Payne

      For this to work with the latest WordPress 4.4.2 I had to update the meta_key names because my WordPress install was using a table prefix of wp_brnq_ instead of the typical wp_ prefix.

      • Rose

        What do you mean? This is no working for me either.

  28. Robert Drummond

    Thank you for this! It saved me from an errant plugin that over-wrote my admin record in the users table!

  29. Nadia

    I am currently fixing the website of my mom for her own company and I am a kind of wordpress-dummy. I couldn’t properly log in because she sent me the wrong password. After three failed attempts it said I should look in the data. Message: ‘Username or password are not correct. Please check your data.’
    I followed these steps here and I followed all of these steps very precisely, but still, with my new username and password, I am unable to log in. My prefix was different than wp_ what this article stated, so I changed the prefix as well – but can’t come through. Now I am locked out until tomorrow.

    What happened, can someone maybe help me / explain me what I did wrong and how can I fix this. I really promised my mom to build her website, and it needs to be updated really soon! :(

  30. Joe Harkins

    you were doing a great job of step by step until you got to

    “meta_key – this should be wp_capabilities”

    What does “should be” mean in this context? Does it mean that it should already say that that in that field, perhaps generated from something prior? If is not there what is required?

    There’s a drop down field to the right of meta_key. That file name “wp_capabilities” does not exist as a selection. There’s a blank field to the right of that. Do I paste wp_capabilities into it? Is there a value of that name somewhere that I should be putting in that field?

    And I see more trouble ahead. You say “insert another row.”

    I take the word insert as a verb. Where and how do I do that? I am already on the Insert page. There is nothing on it says “Insert new row.”

    Looking further down – all the way at thre bottom – skipping over the next section (which I an told to do) I see a field that says “Insert as a new row.”

    But “insert a new row” and being told to go to a field that contains the phrase “Inert as a new row” are not all the same thing.

    and there is a checked box that says “ignore” right above it. What’s the point of going further if that box is still checked ignore – and is “insert a new row” the same as “insert a new row?”

    And I see the same “should be” confusion ahead again in the next set of instructions.

    But I’m stuck back the first “should” because I am literal minded. Please clarify?

    • Jeff

      Hi Joe,

      “meta_key – this should be wp_capabilities” means that the meta_key value (the textbox in phpmyadmin) should be wp_capabilities

      When he refers to inserting a new row, you can do so by clicking insert from the navigation at the top of phpmyadmin this tutorial assumes you have already done the first insert and are on the browse tab.

  31. Rich

    I had a multiple site setup. After doing this I can access both sites, however I have no Network Admin capability and not Plugin management… Under “My Sites” I see my two sites, but no “Network” option. On the vertical menu area for my site I seem to have everything other than “Plugins.”

    Seems I do not have Administration over my WP Network for multiple sites?

  32. sapere aude

    that was awesome! :) thanks.

  33. Bouasone

    Many thank it very helpful

  34. Russ

    Thanks for the great tutorial! I was able to successfully log in.

  35. Arpan Das

    Thanks a lot. Working fine…

  36. Rodolfo

    This saved my life today – thank you!

  37. Phil

    This worked for me with the following modification: the wp_capabilities value had to be taken from another admin users row because it had additional permissions or whatever those are. copy the values in that case from an existing user if necessary

  38. Reid Walley

    If you’ve gone through all of the steps and you’re STILL getting the “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page” error message when trying to log in…

    I had to replace the first example meta_key (wp_capabilities) with my own prefix: change wp_capabilities to whateveryourprefixis_capabilities

    Same with the second meta_key example (wp_user_level). I changed it to my specific prefix: change wp_user_level to whateveryourprefixis_user_level

    • Yoana

      Thanks, that fixed it :-)

  39. Terry Hale

    Such a helpful article. Perfectly done, easy to understand. Thanks for the time you spent putting it together. :)

  40. Andre

    This has been very helpful for me on several occasions. Thank you for putting this together!!!

  41. 2046

    for those who still got the You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.
    you might want to check that the wp_capabilities adn stuff follows your db prefix name..
    like if your normally wp_usersmeta has blab787_usersmeta the wp_capabilities will be blab787_capabilities etc.

    • Lydia B

      Thank you, your solution to the “you do not have sufficient permissions” error message worked perfectly for me.

    • Terry Hale

      Thanks for posting! I ran into that problem, and you solved it. :)

    • Cristian Deraco

      Thank you !!! it worked for me yeah!

  42. Rony

    I can not see the table with user infomations, have any idea?

  43. Denny

    Fantastic walk-through. This is spot on with multiple versions of phpmyadmin so ignore the differences in the screenshots. Thanks for the write-up!

    -D

    • Denny

      WordPress 3.6.1. I will test this with 4 and confirm as well.

  44. Ludwik C. Siadlak

    Same here, in September 2015 I get “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” error after using the SQL code provided. Which is strange, since this article is only 6 months old!

  45. Harm

    I followed your instructions to the letter but something went wrong (don’t know what) and now I don’t have access to my website. I get the message: database error.
    Can I undo the changes I made? Please help.

  46. Kiel

    all I had to do was revert the meta data back to admin and it worked great. Thanks for the article.

  47. Matthew Galvin

    Pretty much useless in > version 3. Nice start tho.

  48. Chris Hewlett

    Hello, I dug a little deeper into the problem and found that existing entries in the “usermeta” table had a prefix that was unique to my site. My wordpress tables all begin with ar_, and once I edited those 2 rows to reflect that, my login was complete, with all priveleges.

    Regards,

    Chris

  49. Chris Hewlett

    Hello, and thank you for the above write-up on this subject. I have been locked out of my local site (XAMPP) and other articles I have read deal with changing the existing admin user password using phpMyAdmin. I did not have success with those methods.

    I followed your instructions above and the login screen did accept the credentials.

    Unfortunately I was redirected to domain//wp-admin/profile.php and the phrase “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page”.

    From the front end of the site, I can see I am logged in but when I click on Dashboard, the same phrase appears.

    Do you have any suggestions that would allow me access?

    Thanks in advance,

    Chris

  50. Abishai

    Hi, tried the fix by following it to the “T” yet when I try logging in: url/wp-admin takes me to a url/25/ page as before. Wonder what I did wrong. Please advice. Thanks in advance.
