Im moving members from one database to a new one. I used to use PostNUKE but I am now using vBulletin.
I re-register all members using the vBulletin registration form. I have reset all passwords for all members, requiering that all users go to the lost password page and enter their email address. However, in the eamil sent to memebers, only the username is sent and not the password.


Username = docmann
Password =

Don't forget that they are case sensitive!



I have tested the user account by logging in with the username and password, all works fine.

Any help would be appriciated.

You should go through all the users, and reset their usergroup to "users awaiting email confirmation"...

Then you should go through and email their activation codes to them...

It does not help. Sure users can log in when they activate their account, but they cant get their password. The email sent out still shows an empty field.

I have also tested my admin account, the password sent is also blank for that account in email.

Im using the original email_lostpw template

Here are your login details for the bulletin board at $bburl/ .

Username = $username
Password = $password

Don't forget that they are case sensitive!

To edit your profile, go to this page:
$bburl/member.php?action=editprofile

Yours,
