Joomla Admin - create super user - PHP script

Using this practical script, a new Joomla Super User (admin) can be created in the database quickly and conveniently.

The email address is always "no-reply(at)example.com" - this can be changed later in the user administration if the user is not intended to be used only temporarily.
Changes to the variables in the downloaded PHP script are of course no problem either.

Instructions - Create Joomla Super User (Admin) in the database

  1. Generate the script with the desired data.
  2. Download the script (a random number between 1 and 99 is appended to the file name).
  3. Upload the script to the root directory of the Joomla installation (where the configuration.php is also located).
    This can be done via (s)FTP access or via a webspace explorer provided by the hosting provider.
  4. Run the script by opening it in your web browser:
    https: //example.com/j-createuser-xx.php
  5. The super user has been created in the database and the script has been automatically deleted from the server.
