WP Password Grok

Contributor(s): CS Powell Tags: password, hash, salt, bcrypt, blowfish, pluggable, security Requires at least WordPress: 4.0 Tested up to WordPress: 4.5.2 Stable tag: 1.0.0 License: GPLv2 or later License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html

Description

  1. wp-blowfish is a WordPress plugin that permits WordPress to reset all User passwords using a Blowfish cipher.

  2. Default Settings: Replaces WordPress' outdated and insecure MD5-based password hashing encryption with the up-to-date and secure Bcrypt blowfish hashing encryption.

  3. This plugin requires PHP 5.5.0 or greater

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.

  2. Next, activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress.

Manual installation as a must-use plugin

  1. If not utilizing Composer, you may manually copy the plug-in folder directly into WordPress' /wp-content/plugins/mu-plugins/ directory.

  2. Do not recommend using this as a normal (non-mu) plugin because this makes it too easy to disable or remove the plugin from WordPress.
