Password Hash is a WordpPress plugin that improves the WordPress password hashing security by using the builtin
password_hash
and
password_verify
functions.
If the installed PHP version doesn't support those methods, it falls back to the standard PHPass method.
This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.
Normal plugin
- Upload the plugin files to the
/wp-content/plugins/whrd-password-hash
directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
- Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress
Must-use plugin
- Upload the
whrd-password-hash.php
file into /wp-content/mu-plugins
folder.
