How Do I Add an Admin to WordPress FTP?

Adding an admin to a WordPress site using FTP can be a daunting task. However, with a little preparation and some know-how, it can be done in a matter of minutes.

First, create a user account for the admin. This user should have all the permissions the admin account will need. Next, log in to the FTP server and navigate to the wp-content directory.

Create a new directory called admin and set its permissions to 755. Now, create a file called wp-config.php and copy the following lines of code into it:.

define(‘DB_CONNECTION’, ‘mysql’); define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); define(‘DB_PORT’, ‘3306’); define(‘DB_DATABASE’, ‘WordPress’);

Next, create a file called db.php and paste the following code into it:

define(‘DB_USER’, ‘admin’); define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘password’); define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); define(‘DB_PORT’, ‘3306’); define(‘DB_DATABASE’, ‘WordPress’);

Finally, create a file called login.php and paste the following code into it:

change_password(array( ‘new_password’ => ‘new_password_here’ )); // Check if the user is already logged in if (isset($_SERVER[‘HTTP_AUTH_USER’])) { // If the user is logged in, redirect them to the login page $wp_local_user->logout(); exit; } // If the user is not logged in, redirect them to the create a new account page $wp_local_user->create_account(); exit; ?>

Finally, create a file called index.php and paste the following code into it:

set_current_user($wp_local_user); $wp_admin->login(); ?>
