Hello everyone! I'm hoping I am at the right place to get some help. It would be awesome if someone has some ideas.
We ran a Woltlab Burning Board 3 forum for some considerable amount of time and just recently decided to switch to MyBB for a higher sense of security and such.
We used the merge function of MyBB to "transfer" our WBB3 installation to MyBB. This initially worked quite well, everything transferred without errors. Upon finishing the merge, there was a plugin active that said something like "Automatically converts WBB3 passwords to MyBB when needed".
Long story short, due to some "Thread could not be found" issues and a quick google search, we ended up backing up the database at this point, reinstalling MyBB and re-importing the database back in. This fixed all "Thread could not be found" errors, but obviously removed the plugin that converts WBB3 passwords to MyBB.
I have received three "My password isn't working?!" contact mails from people who haven't logged in while the converting-password-plugin was active.
Now the questions are:
Cheers

Now the questions are:
- Can I send a mass-mail resetting everyone's password? If so, how?
- Can I activate this plugin manually? If so, how?
