<p dir="auto">I removed the DDG suggestion from both the code and also the docs. I don't know how wise it is to send raw password to search engine...</p>

<p dir="auto">Thanks. I got some failed pipeline email. I've no idea what that means (but I guess it might explain why my suggestions are not yet on <a href="https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/jirafeau/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/jirafeau/</a> )</p>

<p dir="auto"><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/loudlemur" aria-label="Profile: LoudLemur">@<bdi>LoudLemur</bdi></a> basically, what you need to do is:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p dir="auto">Chose a new password</p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto">Create a sha256 hash of your new password.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto">There are a couple of ways to do this.</p>
<p dir="auto">You can either use the web terminal (or any terminal) and do:</p>
<p dir="auto"><code>echo -n "newpassword" | sha256sum</code></p>
<p dir="auto">OR you could use e.g. DuckDuckGo search like this:</p>
<p dir="auto"><a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=sha256+newpassword" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">https://duckduckgo.com/?q=sha256+newpassword</a></p>
<ol start="3">
<li>Then, you use the File Manager to edit line 9 in <code>custom.php</code> and change the sha256 hash of changeme123 that is there to the sha256 hash of your new password that you generated in 2.</li>
</ol>
<pre><code>$cfg['admin_password'] = '&lt;new sha256 hash of your new password goes here&gt;';
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">Update: <a class="plugin-mentions-group plugin-mentions-a" href="/groups/staff" aria-label="Profile: staff">@<bdi>staff</bdi></a> I've added a merge request to add these instructions to the docs <a href="https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/docs/-/merge_requests/42" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/docs/-/merge_requests/42</a> <img src="https://forum.cloudron.io/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f642.png?v=fed68e33a46" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--slightly_smiling_face" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":)" alt="🙂" /></p>

The string as in  <code>494a715f7e9b4071aca61bac42ca858a309524e5864f0920030862a4ae7589be</code> is the password <code>changme123</code> only hashed as described in the other lines of that file.</p>
