FUDforum does not store plain-text versions of user passwords, instead is stored the 32 character long (hexadecimal) md5 checksum of the password. As long as this value is placed correctly into passwd field for each user, old logins will work.


We've run into a couple of snags transferring the user data. We converted the passwords to md5 and that worked just fine, but when one attempts to log in using one of the imported usernames and passwords, an "Invalid URL" error is generated. Any suggestions for getting around this?

Also, FUD forum seems to have automatically deleted all the imported users with a message count of 0. We changed those message counts to 1 to get around this, but is there an option to auto-delete or "prune" inactive users? I have not seen such an option in the admin CP where I might be able to turn it off.
