Managing access to your Sitecore instance is essential, and sometimes you might need to reset the admin password. Here’s a quick guide to help you do that efficiently.

If you’ve forgotten the password, you can reset it directly through the Core database. Here’s the SQL query to reset the password for the sitecore\Admin user:

UPDATE [aspnet_Membership]
SET
    [Password] = 'qOvF8m8F2IcWMvfOBjJYHmfLABc=',
    [PasswordSalt] = 'OM5gu45RQuJ76itRvkSPFw==',
    [IsApproved] = '1',
    [IsLockedOut] = '0'
WHERE UserId IN (
    SELECT UserId FROM dbo.aspnet_Users WHERE UserName = 'sitecore\Admin'
);

After executing this query, you can log in using:

Sitecore has one of the greatest software communities that I’ve seen. There is a cool slack channel where you can ask and share your knowledge with the community (and also some cool memes 😂).

Also, the marketplace is where you can contribute new modules to extend the features of Sitecore so it gets better and better. What about Reddit? Yes, there is also a subreddit for Sitecore.

Moreover, the Sitecore User Groups, which are organized by members of the community, offer some effective ways to learn and do networking in the place you live. Usually, they are organized using meetups, check the upcoming user groups events in different zones of the world for the rest of the year.

After some feedback from some coworkers, there is an issue at the AddContentEditorExtensions.cs file. The problem is related to the renderContentEditorpipeline that is executed when Sitecore loads the Control Properties dialog.

The Issue-20 was created to track the problem. The issue is already fixed and new version v0.0.2.1 was released. It should be available in the Sitecore Marketplace in the next days.
