Cakephp 3.7.4 Auth hash password Not working - cakephp

Question

I am trying to implement auth login and register cakephp 3.7.4
I have used following code for UsersController add method
public function add()
{
$this->viewBuilder()->setLayout('login');
$user = $this->Users->newEntity();
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$post = $this->request->getData();
$post['created'] = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$post['modified'] = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$user = $this->Users->patchEntity($user, $post);
if ($this->Users->save($user)) {
$this->Flash->success(__('The user has been saved.'));
return $this->redirect(['action' => 'login']);
}
$this->Flash->error(__('Unable to add the user.'));
}
$this->set('user', $user);
}
But it can't save password in Hash Format
I have also create entity and used this function but it also not helped me
class User extends Entity
{
protected $_accessible = [
'email' => true,
'password' => true
];
protected $_hidden = [
'password'
];
protected function _setPassword($password){
return(new DefaultPasswordHasher)->hash($password);
}
}

Answer 1

I installed a fresh Cake 3.7.4 installation, baked a users table, users controller and users table/entity. The following code for the User Class successfully hashed the password before it is written to the database. Please compare it with your code.
namespace App\Model\Entity;
use Cake\Auth\DefaultPasswordHasher;
use Cake\ORM\Entity;
class User extends Entity
{
protected $_accessible = [
'email' => true,
'password' => true,
'modified' => true,
'created' => true
];
protected $_hidden = [
'password'
];
protected function _setPassword($password)
{
return (new DefaultPasswordHasher())->hash($password);
}
}

Just use parenthesis around DefaultPasswordHaser():
return(new DefaultPasswordHasher())->hash($password);
