Magento does not allow resetting password of an existing user using the command prompt CLI.
But it allows creating new admin users via CLI.
Login to the command line and change directory to your magento 2 root directory.
e.g. cd /var/www/magento2
Enter the below command and press enter.
php bin/magento admin:user:create
The CLI will prompt for username, password, email address, first name and last name for the user being created.
As online platforms and publishers look to grab bigger shares of digital commerce budgets, the number and variety of paid and organic formats available to marketers to promote their e-businesses have taken off in the last few years, including shoppable media options. Below is a list of current options.
These are feed-based sponsored product ads that started on Google Shopping and have proliferated across nearly every channel, including Snapchat, Microsoft Advertising, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, Amazon, Pinterest and other marketplace and retailer sites. These ads feature a single product.
As shopping ads have gained popularity, platforms have been iterating on the format. Google Showcase Shopping ads feature multiple related products and typically show on broader category queries. Facebook and Instagram offer multi-product, swipeable Carousel ads as well as the newer Collection ads which combine brand and direct-response elements. Snapchat’s Collection ads are full-screen ads featuring a set of products. Users can tap each product image to surface more product details in the ad.
These can be effective, but also need to be managed well. Dynamic product ads are the ones users often complain about seeing after they’ve already purchased a product. The ads automatically show users the exact or similar products they recently viewed on an advertiser’s website or app. Many platforms, vendors and publishers support this type of advertising, including (but not limited to)
Amazon, Google, Facebook and Instagram, Snapchat, Verizon Media, AdRoll and Criteo.
Brands know influencers (celebrities and creators) can drive sales from their social posts and videos. Social platforms have been testing formats that let users click to shop right from influencers’ posts. Instagram and TikTok are among those experimenting with this type of format for influencers on their platforms.
These are similar to standard Product Shopping Ads, but aren’t associated with search. Amazon’s version is now called Sponsored Display. The ads feature a single product and can be targeted on and off Amazon to audiences based on relevant Amazon shopping activities
These are organic (unpaid) posts on social networks that can be used to promote and link to products. Examples include Pinterest product pins, Instagram shoppable posts, and the new Amazon Posts, currently in beta.
Shop the Look: A variation of Shoppable Posts, Pinterest was the first to offer an organic, interactive Shop the Look format with clickable hotspots on products featured in images. Fashion and home decor marketers can tag products shown in their images (items in an outfit or furniture shown in a living room, for example) manually or work with Pinterest Marketing Partners Olapic or Curalate. Google has tested a paid version called Shoppable Image Ads in Image Search. Publishers are also testing Shoppable Media solutions that can help brands shorten the gap between product discovery and purchase. Verizon Media’s Touchpoints ads, for example, are full-screen interactive mobile ads that enable users to tap on products to learn more and click to shop from the retailer’s website. POPSUGAR publisher Group Nine is testing shoppable ads for brands that feature the products they sell on Amazon and Walmart.
These ads let users take buying actions right from a video on their devices, including TVs. In addition to YouTube and social platforms, over-the-top OTT (or advanced TV) vendors are making television content and ads shoppable as well.
Turn content your customers are creating into authentic and effective marketing content. Marketers can do this themselves or use a vendor such as Olapic or TINT to re-purpose UGC content into shoppable, sales-generating social posts.
Shoppable Story Ads
Snapchat’s Shoppable Story ads can run in Discover and between stories. Instagram’s version lets marketers add Product Stickers to their Stories that users can click on to see more product details and a link to the company’s website.
Yep, you can use comments to sell products on Facebook and Instagram posts directly to commenters. CommentSold, Soldsie, PopItUp and Shoppe are among the vendors in this space.

To extract the GZ archive to the current directory, use below command.
$ gunzip archive.gz
.gz files are compressed with gzip compression algorithm. To extract .gz files we use gunzip command is used in Linux.
if the operation is successful, nothing is shown and linux command prompt is given back to the user
if you want to see what happens during the unzip operation , you can user the -v parameter with the command.
# gunzip -v file_name.gz
-v stands for verbose, which shows a log of actions happening while the archive is decompressed.
Also note, after decompressing using gubzip , the GZ extention is removed from the file. so , your compressed archive is no longer available but the extracted file.
if you want to keep the archive as well, please use the -k parameter with the command as below.
# gunzip -k file_name.gz
View information about a GZ archive file
To view information about the compressive GZ gzip file, you can use the gunzip command like below, it does not uncompress the archive but give you vital information about the archive.
gunzip -l file_name.gz
Compress a file to a GZIP archive with GZ extension

gzip file_name.txt

Task scheduling is an important part of many web applications.
Here are several examples:
Laravel makes it super easy and intuitive to use linux CRON scheduler to perform automated tasks for your web application.
Usually web applications achieve task scheduling by creating several cron jobs in Linux that execute the required controller methods in the web application. Downside of this approach is that you need to create one cron job for each task. So if there are 10 tasks , you have to create 10 cron jobs in Linux making it hard to manage.
Laravel adds a layer of programmable logic between the operating system and your web application that you can program your tasks with specified time interval to run them and use a single CRON job .
So once you create general cron job that invokes the laravel scheduler, you are free to programmatically add any number of tasks to run on various time intervals. There are many commonly used time intervals which can be accessed via easy to remember method names such as ->everyMinute(); which obviously runs a given task every minute.
TO be continued. Please provide your feedback below.
The PHP programming language that powers most of the Internet based appications. It is used in the popular content management systems like WordPress, Joomla and Drupal, so it’s a big issue whenever someone identify a security vulnerability within it.
A few days a ago, Emil ‘Neex’ Lerner, a Russian security expert, published a remote-code execution vulnerability in PHP version 7.
With this vulnerability, an attacker could force a remote web server to execute their own random code just by entering a crafted URL. The attacker only needs to add “?a=” to the website address, followed by their code payload.
This attack makes it very easy to start hacking a website, so that even a non-technical user could abuse it.
Fortunately, the vulnerability only affects servers using the NGINX web server with the PHP-FPM extension. PHP-FPM is a modded version of FastCGI, with a several additional features intended for websites with high traffic.
Due to the availability of public sample ( POC) code and the extreme simplicity of exploiting this bug, website owners are advised to check server settings and update PHP as soon as possible if they run the vulnerable configuration.
