I'm curious, because I'm working on an API for my forum but it's not for the public so you have to post your username and password in order to verify it.

I need to know the hashing so I can check the hashed username and password in the database.

Thanks a lot!

(By the way, I looked in the source documents and couldn't find it. So I did search around.)

MD5, salted.

See ./inc/functions_user.php for the functions used.

Thanks a lot! I assumed that's what it was, but I wanted to make sure. Smile
