PHP salt and hash SHA256 for login password

I've made encrypting of the password in my register script and they are stored in the database, and I have to use them to login, so I would want to use the unencrypted ones to login. I've read some of the threads in here but nothing is helping me. How can I add it in my login.php? The salt is also stored in the database.

This is my register.php script for encrypting

$hash = hash('sha256', $password1);

function createSalt()
{
    $text = md5(uniqid(rand(), TRUE));
    return substr($text, 0, 3);
}

$salt = createSalt();
$password = hash('sha256', $salt . $hash);

and this is my login.php with season

//Create query
$qry="SELECT * FROM member WHERE username='$username' AND password='$password'";
$result=mysql_query($qry);

//Check whether the query was successful or not
if($result) {
    if(mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
        //Login Successful
        session_regenerate_id();
        $member = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
        $_SESSION['SESS_MEMBER_ID'] = $member['id'];
        $_SESSION['SESS_FIRST_NAME'] = $member['username'];
        $_SESSION['SESS_LAST_NAME'] = $member['password'];
        session_write_close();
        header("location: profile.php");
        exit();
    }
    else {
        //Login failed
        //error message 
    }
else {
    die("Query failed");
}

These examples are from php.net. Thanks to you, I also just learned about the new php hashing functions.

Read the php documentation to find out about the possibilities and best practices: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.password-hash.php

Save a password hash:

$options = [
    'cost' => 11,
];
// Get the password from post
$passwordFromPost = $_POST['password'];

$hash = password_hash($passwordFromPost, PASSWORD_BCRYPT, $options);

// Now insert it (with login or whatever) into your database, use mysqli or pdo!

Get the password hash:

// Get the password from the database and compare it to a variable (for example post)
$passwordFromPost = $_POST['password'];
$hashedPasswordFromDB = ...;

if (password_verify($passwordFromPost, $hashedPasswordFromDB)) {
    echo 'Password is valid!';
} else {
    echo 'Invalid password.';
}

According to php.net the Salt option has been deprecated as of PHP 7.0.0, so you should use the salt that is generated by default and is far more simpler

Example for store the password:

$hashPassword = password_hash("password", PASSWORD_BCRYPT);

Example to verify the password:

$passwordCorrect = password_verify("password", $hashPassword);

You couldn't login because you did't get proper solt text at login time. There are two options, first is define static salt, second is if you want create dynamic salt than you have to store the salt somewhere (means in database) with associate with user. Than you concatenate user solt+password_hash string now with this you fire query with username in your database table.

array hash_algos(void)

echo hash('sha384', 'Message to be hashed'.'salt');

Here is a link to reference http://php.net/manual/en/function.hash.php

I think @Flo254 chained $salt to $password1and stored them to $hashed variable. $hashed variable goes inside INSERT query with $salt.

You can't do that because you can not know the salt at a precise time. Below, a code who works in theory (not tested for the syntaxe)

<?php
$password1 = $_POST['password'];
$salt      = 'hello_1m_@_SaLT';
$hashed    = hash('sha256', $password1 . $salt);
?>

When you insert :

$qry="INSERT INTO member VALUES('$username', '$hashed')";

And for retrieving user :

$qry="SELECT * FROM member WHERE username='$username' AND password='$hashed'";
