Wordpress and Joomla hash and salt

I would like to know where the hash and salt are in Wordpress and Joomla hashes?

For example: In this wordpress hash
Code:
P$BTBCNLQpY5CWWQ6XC4WJ6IPJQ877s3

where the salt is?

In this Joomla hash
Code:
$2y$10$io60pn4npWCRWwg4308pB.4rLmfz.vFwzxzYmX6W48Ff7wTi7ZEMO

where the salt is?

For example (source wikipedia), the bcrypt shadow password record
Code:
$2a$10$N9qo8uLOickgx2ZMRZoMyeIjZAgcfl7p92ldGxad68LJZdL17lhWy

specifies a cost parameter of 10, indicating 210 key expansion rounds. The salt is
Code:
N9qo8uLOickgx2ZMRZoMye

and the resulting hash is
Code:
IjZAgcfl7p92ldGxad68LJZdL17lhWy

Thanks you.

Wordpress uses phpass, which handles salts internally and doesn't encode a separate salt in the output. I think the P$ just tells it what hash was used.
