This morning HostGator has made everyone change their passwords to a strong password. This is no big deal until you go to access anything that uses your mysql database. Just a heads up, this can royally screw your blog access. Being the administrator for more than half a dozen blogs and bbs hosted on HostGator. To fix this problem you can do one of two things, but only one of them will probably get done today.
1) Cry to support for a fix.
2) Download your wp-congig.php manually change the password
To your new one then upload it overwriting the old file.
Have fun and enjoy the rest of your Memorial Day
