I thought I had successfully given myself a login and password for XCloner but when I went on my site a couple of weeks later to start a backup I couldn't get past the authentication area. It tells me incorrect username or password.
I would try resetting the password but I have no idea what paragraph 2 means. I'm not a programmer and have no idea where I would find cloner.config.php or how to access it. And when I do, do I need to include the quote marks?
2. If you've forgot your password, to reset it you need to add
this code:
$_CONFIG["jcpass"] = md5("my_new_pass");
at the end of the config file cloner.config.php just
before line ?>
Don't forget to replace my_new_pass with the actual password

Simon,
You'll need it as is: $_CONFIG["jcpass"] = md5("my_new_pass");
All you replace is the word my_new_pass
To replace the code, locate cloner.config.php in wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/

Sorry just realised this in the Joomla support:
administrator/components/XCloner3.1/cloner.config.php

Thanks for getting in touch Stuart.
I can't locate this file path. I typed in the directory as you suggested and got a 404 error. When I go into components xcloner-backup-and-restore I get options but everyone I click just gives me the Authentification area form
/administrator/index.php?option=com_xcloner-backupandrestore

Well I just tried entering the default login and password and got in, so possibly I didn't save my detsils when I first set this up. I'd still like to get to grips with how to access this cloner.config.php file. I guess I probably can now that I've actually used the correct login and password! I'll look at that later. Got to try and transfer this site asap.
Thanks Stuart
