I haven’t an ready to use solution. However I think you should enhance the query, so that you have the field of the users inside this. I think the follow example demonstrate it more. The two filter hooks are necessary and get an result for the query like this: SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wpbeta_posts.ID FROM wpbeta_posts JOIN … Read more
WordPress used MD5 for password hash in the past, but had since moved on to more secure phpass.

By using this you can get your result in ascending order for sort_order custom field $users = get_users( array( ‘meta_key’=> ‘sort_order’, ‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value_num’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ ) ); foreach( $users as $user ) { echo ‘<h4>’ . $user_info-> user_firstname . ‘ ‘ . $user_info-> user_lastname . ‘</h4>’; }
Parts of WordPress use (s)FTP to transfer files. Updates, for example, use (s)FTP. Media uploads do not, at least not unless something has changed in 3.7.
