a "friend" of mine was not a very smart person and decided to run 7b3 on a live (new) site. Now about 10-15 people have signed up. When the final is realeased, will "he" be able to copy over the hashes so that the users can keep their current passwords?

Also, if extra smilies and avatars were added, will the includes be transferrable?

ps. i swear it's not me

you never know what will change to the final......if bruce finds a different way to encrypt or whatever it could change.

Assuming that the Username field remains intact, just get each User to request their forgotten password on the login page. A new one is automatically generated and emailed back to them. Once logged in, they can change it back to their preference.

With just a handfull of Users it shouldn't cause a riot

Hope this helps
Nigel
