I want to encrypt the admin/members passwords, but I don't know if the MD5 is still strong for that, or became weak.
And what is the strong alternatives for encrypting the passwords like MD5 in the past.

1No, it is not. Use [`password_hash`](http://php.net/password_hash) with BCRYPT. – mario Oct 02 '15 at 19:58

1MD5 isn't encryption, it's hashing. And no it is not strong enough. It was *never* strong enough. – Boann Oct 02 '15 at 20:00
