• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question password

Which password is that? The Plesk login password? The FTP password? The password of a CMS that is installed to manage your website? A password of a user account of the website itself?
 
How to reset a password of a software that is installed in your webspace depends on that software. What software is it?
 
You can either reset the Wordpress password by using the "Setup" link in the Wordpress toolkit. When you set new access credentials there, they will be set in Plesk for the Wordpress "login" button, but also in Wordpress for the regular wp-login.php login.

Or you can edit the password in the Wordpress users table in the database directly. There you can set a new password by choosing the "MD5" field conversion algorithm on the plain text entry that you do, e.g. in phpMyAdmin.

All kinds of options, the above mentioned included, are also explained here: Reset Your Password
