When setting up a new WordPress site or onboarding a client, creating a dedicated admin account is an essential task for ensuring streamlined access and control. While the WordPress dashboard makes this possible, it can sometimes be quicker and more efficient to handle this via phpMyAdmin, especially during development or troubleshooting.

That’s where this SQL Generator Tool comes in. With just a few details, you can generate the SQL query needed to create a new administrator account directly in your WordPress database. No manual edits, no guesswork – just a simple, efficient solution.

    • Password: The account password (encrypted for security).
    • Display Name: The public name displayed on posts and pages.

Why Use SQL for Admin Account Creation?

Sometimes, using SQL is more convenient than the dashboard, especially in scenarios like:

  • Lost Access: If all admin accounts are inaccessible.
  • Development Setup: Quickly adding accounts to dev environments.
  • Batch Creation: Adding multiple accounts efficiently.
