Sucesso Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) I converted from vBulletin 4.x yesterday (went really well!), and I'm testing various functions (email, spam settings, etc.). Do users need to reset their passwords? Or are they imported? I ask because I thought I read somewhere that they were. However, when I try to log in with my test account, the password I have doesn't work. (Yes, I searched.) Thanks! Edit: I believe I fixed this by disabling the Varnish plugin that my host (Cloudways) uses. Edited October 22, 2021 by Sucesso
Ryan Ashbrook Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 Yes, their passwords should continue to work.
Sucesso Posted October 21, 2021 Author Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Thanks! That was my understanding. But… I did a test with a test account, and the password didn't work. And users are saying their passwords aren't working. (I also see almost no members online when I would normally have 30–100.) I'm going to guess that if they didn't transfer over during the conversion that there's no way to get them back (except for doing the conversion again). Is that right? Edit: I'm also getting another error; maybe this is why passwords aren't working. I'll troubleshoot the other error. Edited October 21, 2021 by Sucesso
Marc Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 Just to note, you must ensure your converters remain installed, and that the converter login method remains enabled. Could I confirm you have not removed any of those 2? If so, and you are still having issues, please let us know

I checked: 'Login & Registration' > Converter, and I see 'Enabled'. Conversion > Manage Conversions > and I still see my conversion. I was getting an htaccess error when the converter finished (in the Invision ACP), but I can't find that error now.
Marc Posted October 25, 2021 Posted October 25, 2021 I have just created you a ticket. Please respond to that with an example user and password we can take a look at
Solution Sucesso Posted October 25, 2021 Author Solution Posted October 25, 2021 Hi there, Marc. I believe I've resolved it by disabling Varnish in Cloudways. I did update my original post in case anyone finds this thread. Thanks for the help! Marc 1
Marc Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 That excellent to hear. Glad you managed to get things working as expected
