Import sha1 (with salt) to mybb - 7community - 2019-05-25
I really love mybb, it's the best forum software.
But I have a problem and I have been searching all day for a possible solution.
I have 2 sites. One uses sha1 with salt (and is a bit old). But it has thousands of accounts and has worked great for years.
Now I have a new mybb site and my goal is to:
1. Import users from site 1 (so they don't have to register/login, etc.)
2. Create an auto-login feature so if the users are logged into site 1 and they go to site 2 (mybb) they are automatically logged in using a session ID.
3. Disable login
4. On site 1 make it so that any new registered user is also automatically registered on site 2.
Problems I am facing: sha1 with salt on site 1 to md5 on site 2 mybb. I cannot find a way to import these old users to the new md5 encryption method.
The rest seems to be doable. But I can't get past the first issue.
Is there any plugin, sha1 to md5 conversion tool or anything like that? Trust me I have search and I can't find anything.
Both sites are on the same dedicated server.
Please if you can help let me know. I am willing to offer as much advice and contribute as I learn the system, but for now I'm climbing the learning curve..
Thank you
