I have a table 'Signatories' and when I add a person to that table I email them with the details to log in. I have encrypted passwords and would like to insert into the login_users table the encrypted password and send them the username/password so that they can login.
How do I do encrypt something like $firstname$lastname using php

Hi,
on the security page , registrations and password button ,

there you can define if you save the password encrypted.

For the user you can activate "remind password page", sending existing password to user.
If you want to do it all manually, search in the internet for for ex. : php crypt()

How's about using the built-in password hashing option?

Thank you for the reply, I want to be able to encrypt a password on the fly without using a form. I would like to use PHP to do it, does the password hashing option allow this and if yes, could you please give me some guidance?
