Create a user directly in the database.

This code will setup the higest level admin with the username socialresponse when run as an SQL query in the database of a wordpress install.  If there is a prefix on the tables you will need to preprend these to table name after the database name. ie wp_user may become 2uu7dyf_wp_user

INSERT INTO `DATABASENAME`.`wp_users` (`ID`, `user_login`, `user_pass`, `user_nicename`, `user_email`, `user_url`, `user_registered`, `user_activation_key`, `user_status`, `display_name`) VALUES ('1001', 'socialresponse', MD5('PASSWORD'), 'Social Response', 'admin@social-response.co.uk', 'http://www.social-response.co.uk/', '2014-06-07 00:00:00', '', '0', 'Social Response'); INSERT INTO `DATABASENAME`.`wp_usermeta` (`umeta_id`, `user_id`, `meta_key`, `meta_value`) VALUES (NULL, '1001', 'wp_capabilities', 'a:1:{s:13:"administrator";s:1:"1";}'); INSERT INTO `DATABASENAME`.`wp_usermeta` (`umeta_id`, `user_id`, `meta_key`, `meta_value`) VALUES (NULL, '1001', 'wp_user_level', '10');

 

NB: Remember to change the database name and password
