Choose your Username and Password during Installation.

You’ll find new features as soon as you start! In early version, when you first install WordPress, you are assigned a default username of admin, and a randomly generated password.

WordPress 2.8.4 Security Patch is out now!

by Muhammad Furqan Abid
written by Muhammad Furqan Abid

Another heads up for all WordPress users. The WordPress dev team just released another security update WordPress 2.8.4 to fix a vulnerability discovered yesterday.

Yesterday a vulnerability was discovered: a specially crafted URL could be requested that would allow an attacker to bypass a security check to verify a user requested a password reset. As a result, the first account without a key in the database (usually the admin account) would have its password reset and a new password would be emailed to the account owner. This doesn’t allow remote access, but it is very annoying.

I strongly advice to upgrade your WordPress ASAP. Doing the upgrade will only take a few minutes of your time and in case you’re still new to WordPress and are not familiar with the process, the WordPress Codex has a dedicated page that contains a detailed process on how to upgrade WordPress.
