I have heard that convector do not convert passwords and all members need to reset their password by themself. Is it true ?

I believe that is true when converting Invision, this is due to a password storage issue, havent done one of those in a while.

ImpEx doesn't convert password.

Thats a bad news. It will be a huge loss of existing members if converted this way. Every single member needs to reset their password.

It's necessary to maintain a good level of security, if you have something to offer people won't mind taking that extra minute to reset their password.

Is there anyway i can send password reset in bulk to all existing members ? I have a community having around 30000 members.

How will you lose members? Valuable members won't mind spending a minute of their time to reset their password.

There are lots of sites offering bollywood entertainment. My finding says that only 10% members are active in my kind of forums and most of them will not bother to use forget password. But i am sick of IPB's limited support , modules & modification. I love my Vbulletin forums. I just have a IPB forum and i am thinking to turn it to Vbulletin. Discussion here will make me strong enough to courage this move. Just making sure how will everything go afterthat so i can give support to my members on this move.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
