My site has been checked for malware and there is nothing.

Someone told me that WordPress actually uses a custom function to hash the passwords and not MD5.

… true?

See, this is what I get in my user_pass field: https://i.imgur.com/b9Hk1oh.png

When I change it to MD5, the password gets changed back to the other string… I dont know what encryption it is lol.

So overall issue, my passwords are not automatically being stored in MD5… but instead PHPASS. And I dont know how to fix it.

When I do what was shown, under ‘function’ its blank. Like MD5 isn’t set.

I noticed that all my user’s passes start off as: $P$B followed by a string of characters. For example: $P$BNspiv.Z2IQtM/n8wnRcIepQkSiEyF1

When I actually click MD5 for function for one account, my password changed to a string like similar: a5c20f3a62d53b3f81e25d9e847002d6 without the $P$B in front.

So that string is MD5… the other one isn’t.

But for some reason… my passwords are being stored in phpass instead of MD5 and I don’t know why. This is why when I use IPB external login handler, it doesn’t recognize the password since its phpass.

Anyone have an idea how to?

For some reason then, when I try to use IPB’s external database login handler, and set the password to MD5, it’s not read in the database.

I was told WordPress uses phpass

You live site doesn’t show a birthday checker option when registering.

Sorry to post here… but I noticed when I choose the Birth Date field, then go to my Register page, the popup appears but it seems that I can’t choose a date. I’m stuck on the month “April” and year “2015”. I can’t choose anything else.

Oh yes! It seems for some reason I had a widget in that section… I don’t know why but I did haha. Thanks a lot for your help!

Hello,

Okay, hopefully I got it correct. Check this: https://pastebin.com/aAhJ5E3C

Hi there,

I don’t know what the response tab is? Doesn’t show in my browser. Also, your screencast link is dead so I cant view it.

Hi Tom,

I get this:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found): https://www.google.com/uds/?file=ads&v=3&packages=search&async=2

Then when it shows the loading screen I inspected again:
