Limited Support
Our team is currently on holiday, so support will be limited during this period. Response times may be slower than usual, and some inquiries may be delayed.
We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we’ll resume our usual support by the end of August.
Hi. I migrate forum from Kunena to wpForo, but see problem with members passwords. As I see in this topic, https://wpforo.com/community/phpbb/member-passwords/ if I migrate from non-wordpress forum plugins (such as Joomla's Kunena in mu case), passwords not save, right? And users need to reset their passwords?
Yes, @silent2000, the passwords cannot be saved if you migrate from stand-alone forum softwares like phpBB, SMF or MyBB as far as the password hashing/encrypting algorithms are totally different and they don’t match to WordPress.
You should add a small note/message to forum users and put the reset password link in that message on top of your forum home page using the Admin Note tool in Dashboard > Forums > Tools > Misc admin page.
Here is already explained that: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/migrate-to-wpforo/#does-this-tool-preserve-user-password
In case you want to say thank you 😊
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
