title: How can I find the phpmyadmin SQL password encryption type?
body: <p>I am very sorry if this has been answered before, but I have searched for 2 days and cannot find the answer.  I have 2 databases and I need to import users from the current database to a new one.  The new database is for a chat system that has recently bee installed and I would like all users to be added to it.</p>
  
  <p>So I thought I would simply manually add the users in the new database using information from phpmyadmin.  But the encryption for the password is a different format and will not work.</p>
  
  <p>For example in the first database the encryption is:
  z70I9QINffX2Hh7FxQ==</p>
  
  <p>In the second database the format is:
  3eb5c61f784aa3c2e11d879382387d420f7c4ebf</p>
  
  <p>Neither seem to be MD5 and I can't find out which type it is.  </p>
  
  <p>I know this is a stretch but does anyone know of a way to detect the type of encryption and how I can take a password, such as 'password' and encrypt it using the correct encryption type?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you</p>
