Update Password field directly from outside vBulleting using PHP

[looknow12]

Hi,

I am building a web application which needs to register the same username and password into the forum also. However, while creating I need to check that whether the user does already exists or not. If the user already exists then I need to synchronize the password of forum with my web application login. In other words forum login password will be changed to the password selected in my web application while registering.

Can anyone help me in this?

Regards,
Krunal

Using PHP, you can just query the database and fetch/update the password. (However, the recommended method is by using the data manager, but it would be a bit bulky in this case.) Remember that password are hashed in this way:

PHP Code:

md5(md5($password) . $salt))
