Hi there
I am making a application and i am using login system in my application.
to check if user is filling correct information i need to check database if user and password match. I know how to connect to database and how to get data from database. I need to know how MYBB validate user input for username and password. i check and there is one line

$db->escape_string(my_strtolower($username));

is there anything else which mybb check before sending to database

thanks

Looks like the password starts line 166 of inc/datahandlers.user.php and the username is on line 64. Could be way off but that looks like where it's handled.
