hello,
i have SMF version 1.1.9, and i recently tried to convert all my posts, users, and topics from phpbb3.
Upon doing so, everything went successfully, until.....
none of the converted users have their former password. none, not one. Every user has had their password changed. Why is this happening? How do i convert properly? Why did it say successfully converted users if the passwords weren't properly transferred? This even happened for my admin user, which i had to change from the DB.  >:(  >:(  >:(  >:(
best regards

You will need to install this package via SMF's Package Manager. This will fix the password hash when converting from phpBB.

Since phpBB has their own custom password hash, they will not work with SMF until you make this fix.
