Hello, So im trying to login into the admin CP for my, MyBB forum and its saying invaldid username or password even though i opened the config.php and checked what is was. Turns out i put the correct stuff but its still not working
Anyone have a fix?  Undecided
Admin username and password aren't in the config file, they are in the database: it's an user account belonging to Administrator group.
The only thing you can have in the config file is $config['super_admins'] which gives the super admins uid.

also how do i find my secret pin
Your login is your login in mybb, just check the #1 user login.
If your browser auto-fill your form: remove the record from your browser or try with another browser.

The secret pin is in inc/config.php.

ok guys it worked but do you guys know which folder i put a .xml file in
which xml ? Why do you want to upload an xml file in MyBB folders ?
A similar issue has arisen, but the INC file lacks a config. 3 class files and an index and 3 function file
 I did however see a secret pin  ! ' 'with a character after the ! but i have forgotten what it was
