How can I insert multiple new members into the users database? I have it all pretty much figured out myself with the MySql, except for the salt/password part, to get that part correct. Can someone tell me how to get that part correct, with an example password? I know I can add a new member via the admin panel but I have lots of new members from an old forum and I'd just like to import the data with minor tweaks to it.

I believe you can leave the salt empty and enter a plain-text password.

Thanks so much! That worked! Once I did that, it changed to be the same format as the format when you installed (and made the "admin" or whatever you called it account). I really appreciate it -- this will make everything so much easier!
