MySQL Encryption

[wesleyss22]

Hi guys

Just a curious question, I have created a site for the company I work for, I have no PHP experience, just got into it, the site is functional, able to create and view posts by calling pages using submit button which calls pages with the actual code in them. But to the point, I currently only encrypt the password of registered users using md5, but I want to encrypt their posts as well, is there a way I can do this, I know md5 only allows one way encryption and validates a password by comparing md5 strings. So is there a way?

Thanks in advance for any response at all.

hi there,


I found this on another site. I hope it helps

Code: Select all

   $key = 'password';
   $string = ' string to be encrypted ';
   
   echo $encrypted = base64_encode(mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, md5($key), $string, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, md5(md5($key))));
   
   echo $decrypted = rtrim(mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, md5($key), base64_decode($encrypted), MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, md5(md5($key))), "\0");
