How can I use Bcrypt in my .php files?
I have looked over the info at the following link. How do you use bcrypt for hashing passwords in PHP?
If I understand this correctly I would take the function list and place that into a .php file. Then on my main program I would use something like: $isGood = $bcrypt->verify('password', $hash); Which my encrypted password is now a variable of $isGood.
$isGood is what I want to store into the database? correct?
What is my field type? Do I just leave it blank? or label it as text? How do I set up the DataBase to store this type of passwor? I know I wouldn't use md5 or sha1 as the field type, because that will just encrypted it even more, or do I?
According to the example provided $isGood would be either true or false, not the password. As for your database, you should use binary(60) for the field type
Basically what you're trying to accomplish is storing the password encrypted in the database. Since the same string will always hash to the same value(be careful of newlines) you can then check the hash of the user input against what is in you database. This is what the verify() method is doing in your example. Then if verify return true you can proceed, otherwise the password is wrong.
I just recently set something like this up PM is you have anymore questions.
EDIT
After reading this again I think I should remind you to always follow these guidelines when asking a question Specifically please post actual examples of code in the future as this will help make your question more relevant to other people. Aloha.
