My password (which I have written down will not work once more. I am in "wt_user" at "password" isn't there a word to enter and then go to the program and change your password? Or can I enter a new password directly in wt_user?

If your email is set up correctly, then you can hopefully just click the "I forgot my password" link, and a new password will be sent to you.

Otherwise, if you want to update the database, set the "password" column to this - which is the encrypted version of "password".

After you've logged in, you can change the password.

I set the data base password to the code you supplied. I opened up webtrees and inserted the Username and the Encrypted password you supplied. (cut and Paste). Still says wrong password.

Not quite. You should put "$1$OhXPSaXo$dPoqIjEM5H18dibHdfVJI0" in the database, and then log in with "password".
