Ok, I ran the phpBB hack... and at first I told it to generate new passwords and email them to the users... I got an error saying unable to email!

So, I pressed "back" and did it all over again, however, this time I told it to keep the user's password... everything worked great!

The post count is good, everything, however, the only problem is that none of my users can login. How can I give them their old password, or email everyone a new password?

Again, everything is working fine, except the users can't login.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

I just looked, and I have duplicates of all the users, but like I said... the threads and everything else is good

ok, so if I wanted to start all over, what is the hack that I have to put on the boards so everyone can keep their password?

Hi Andrew,

Good to see you took the plunge. It'll be worth it. :)

I suggest posting this in the Troubleshooting forum as you will get support there. Good luck.

Actually the phpBB importer is purely a hack; so as such support has to be given by the hack author in this forum. We'll help out if we can though :)
