MODx database... to ENCRYPT or ot ENCRYPT... THAT is the question!

Specifically, the table modx_web_users

Are the passwords written to this file encrypted? And if so, is there anyway that it can be made to write/use plain text passwords?

I’m trying to get MODx to link up with my credit card processor.

All the best,

They are hashed with the MD5 hash function. Plain-text passwords are a Very Bad Idea. You can match MODx passwords up with another system’s passwords by using the MD5 function on the other system’s passwords before making the comparison.
