But even if I input admin password, it returns "invalid password."</p> <p>I assume the problem is at encryption method.</p> <p>I've tried MD5, SHA1 and none of them are working.</p> <p>I don't know what to write in Other encryption field if trying to connect to other wordpress installation.</p> <p>If you have any experience connecting two wordpress database using this plugin, please advise.</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/external-database-authentication/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/external-database-authentication/</a> </p>
