The [Application Settings](reference-app-settings.md#wordpress) for MySQL database credentials are used by WordPress to connect to the MySQL database. To change the MySQL database password, see [update admin password](/azure/mysql/single-server/how-to-create-manage-server-portal#update-admin-password). Whenever the MySQL database credentials are changed, the [Application Settings](reference-app-settings.md#wordpress) also need to be updated. The [Application Settings for MySQL database](reference-app-settings.md#wordpress) begin with the **DATABASE_** prefix. For more information on updating MySQL passwords, see [WordPress on App Service](https://azure.github.io/AppService/2022/02/23/WordPress-on-App-Service-Public-Preview.html#known-limitations).

To change the WordPress admin password, see [resetting your password](https://wordpress.org/support/article/resetting-your-password/#to-change-your-password). The [Application Settings for WordPress admin credentials](reference-app-settings.md#wordpress) begin with the **WORDPRESS_ADMIN_** prefix.
