You can use this hook to detect a password change and then store the hashes for the last X versions.

thanks for the reply..

Question:: should i make another table in my DB for password??..do you already done this kind of scenario?..

I’ve never done this. Were I to do so, I’d probably use wp_usermeta to store the old password hashes.

Hi Steve Stern,

No Password stored at wp_usermeta..how how it works?..

Right. You’d have to store it there with some meta key. This is custom programming you’d have to do.

Do you have any idea on how get in on it??..

Yes, but it would be a couple of hours of coding which goes beyond what I can do here. This plugin is out-of-date, but you could take it as an example of one way to do it. https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/prevent-password-reuse/

I already saw this plugins..and also the code..i am finding where to start first:)
