Joomla Admin - Create Super User - PHP Script

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

The email address is always set to 'no-reply(at)example.com' - this can be changed afterward in user management if the user is not intended for temporary use only.
Changes to the variables in the downloaded PHP script are of course no problem either.

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

  1. Generate the script with the desired data.
  2. Download the script (a random number between 1-99 will be appended to the filename).
  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 through 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.
