Paul,

I have a large forum that currently uses sha256 hashes for passwords.

I am converting to vBulletin but don't want to ask a few thousand members to use the 'lost password' feature.

I simply need SHA256 and if vBulletin are gonna nullify my support because I need this then so be it (Although it REALLY SHOULD be supported ANYWAY!!)

What vBulletin have to realise is that there are other boards out there with different hashing algo's. They support loads of boards via Impex, yet don't support other boards password algo's..... seems a very needlessly (dare I say lazy...) overlooked point.

Why only go half way?

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