Decrypt the string

Recommended Posts

The PHP crypt() function uses a one-way encryption algorithm. If you crypt the password with this function you could brute force it but I dought anyone would take that route for forgotten passwords.
Although you cannot un-encrypt the password you can easily generate them a new password and send them the new password via email, or you could even set up a temporary password they can login with. Once they login they can simply change there password.
Hope this helps!
