encryption fields.ini file directive

The encryption directive is meant to be used on password fields only. It specifies that a certain type of encryption is to be used in the storing of values in this field. For example, many PHP/MySQL applications use MD5 encryption to store their passwords. If you want your Xataface application to be able to use the same users tables, then you'll need to specify the encryption directive for the password field.

Possible Values

Value Meaning Version
md5 MD5 encryption 0.6
sha1 SHA1 encryption 1.0
encrypt MySQL encrypt function 1.0
password MySQL password encryption 1.0

E.g. in the users table fields.ini file

[password]
   encryption=md5
