Thanks for your help. Litle details,
the license key is goldQ3T8-1QRD-5QBI-9F22 and it is stored in database already encrypted. License key is not saved in database with clear text. It is already encrypted. I am not sure what is this hash column for? License key => def50200962018b6bbed50fc53abca6bb076eb2947fc379e69bd38dcea9f8fbe29eedd43f1148e721d5f6657d8d0152356f5a7ba566dde545a9a354c7b42af88fe4ea7775a4e2ee1a26d8b8f7e3272cf5a8bbe38197fdf19e1726d5e2d769bae408cd511706388abad5a75 hash => 25138e045e9f50022331340a26d0eecbd0d7ca6bfefee0275749025c4f56c3a8 see screenshot: http://prntscr.com/qnhz8h I thought the "hash" column was the key to encrypt or decrypt the license stored in column "license_key". So I run your code for testing with appropriate licese key: Python Code: 1 2 3 4 5 6 from hashlib import md5, sha256, sha512 key = 'goldQ3T8-1QRD-5QBI-9F22' for hash_func in (md5, sha256, sha512): print(hash_func(key.encode()).hexdigest()) and it give this outpu: Output: ecc58b55c33fe6dfe3b49d6d63aad65b f67e701240fbd964aa9a0eb81e2f549b8e3dd97e1aa3b1f5796fd12cd9b14005 8288f635fbab6d6511fc5aa63caf153fa434b3d351612cdf48dcf6abea4275cde5f0d6fffda2e7c6fd42350483603cf6959dd62c946eea2b75eca9f60a5cf5b7 Process finished with exit code 0 As you can see, here the code doesn't give same result than database. ======================================= Regarding wordpress login, I didn't find any python library which can can handle this authentification process. I contacted the developper, and he replied me this message: #################### Hello @formationgrowthhacking, thank you for your message and for using my plugin. For license key hashing, I implemented the PHP native method hash_hmac(), using the sha256 algorithm. You can check out the class which is responsible for encryption, decryption, and hashing here: https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/license-manager-for-woocommerce/trunk/includes/Crypto.php Let me know if this helped! ########### But he may not know python. I need help of python expert. Does this update help for better understanding my issue? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
