With this tutorial, we will show you how to add a WordPress user via the functions.php file. This how-to is pretty useful in case you can’t access your admin section of WordPress for whatever reason may be.
While you can always do a password reset, you can easily add a simply line of code within your functions.php file via an FTP software:
Adding a WordPress user via functions.php
function nomdevotrefuonction(){
/// Ici mettez votre nom utilisateur sans majuscules
$user = 'Username';
/// Ici mettez votre mot de passe
$pass = 'Password';
/// Ici mettez votre courriel
$email = 'email@domain.com';
/// Condition que utilisateur existe pas on le créé
if ( !username_exists( $user ) && !email_exists( $email ) ) {
$user_id = wp_create_user( $user, $pass, $email );
$user = new WP_User( $user_id );
$user->set_role( 'administrator' );
}
}
add_action('init','nomdevotrefuonction');Once you’ll save the changes in the functions.php file, the new user will be created thus allowing you to log back in.
