How do I go about cracking a Wordpress hash (the salted kind) if I have the salt that's given to me from the config file? Been lurking but could not find the answer to this.

Wordpress is -m 400.
Is your hash different ?

If you truly have a Wordpress hash (that starts with $P$), the salt is embedded in the hash. You don't have to look elsewhere for it.
