You can't get the password but you can create a new one. Take a look on that article.

Note: On Elxis 4.x Nautilus user passwords can not be recovered from phpmyadmin. You need a special function to create any user password. Also the passwords are encrypted by using a hash key which is unique for each site. So you can not copy encrypted password from one site to an other or create in one site and use it on an other. In case you loose your admin password you need assistant by an Elxis Team member, or by a trained professional, to reset it.

Dear friends, I can't recall changing my password, however, somehow out of a sudden I can not log in (invalid password) to the administration. How do we go about it ? Thanking you in advance. Sam

Hello Sam,
You can change the password by following the next steps. Please take under consideration that this short tip is
addressed to the Elxis CMS 4.x series only.

Open template's index.php, and go to a visible spot. Write:

<?php
$elxis = eFactory::getElxis();
$encpass = $elxis->obj('crypt')->getEncryptedPassword('12345678');
echo 'pass: '.$encpass;
?>

Now, refresh the site and copy the value that will display. Go to phpmyadmin and db table elx_users.
Find the user you want and edit it. Set as password (pword) the one that you have copied. Now you can login
using as password 12345678 . Note that this password will only work in the current site as the encryption hash
differs from site to site.

What webgift wrote works for all you do something wrong. The standard why is to use the recover password feature.

Hmmm... 2 slashes in the URL I guess (because of the base 64 encoded string). Elxis Defender doesn't like that. I have changed this is the upcoming Elxis release. Temporary disable defender and re-click the activation link.

Open file configuration.php, to disable Elxis Defender set:

private $DEFENDER = '';
