transfering members from phpbb3 to WP, members are being locked out of phpbb3!
this is not possible because phpBB users are transferred in Wordpress, with their phpBB password: until plugin active, their pass is recognized.
While it is not recognized when you uninstall the plugin. This is normal and can't be in different way. Because wordpress do not recognize phpBB hashed pass. Like phpBB do not recognize wp hashed pass.

When you uninstall the plugin, may wordpress users will have to reset their pass in order to login, because the phpBB pass isn't recognized (plugin hash pass in this way, like phpBB do) without the integration plugin.
A standalone plugin that workaround to this problem with a simple function, can be done in just few lines of code.
As it is on plugin code.

old WP transferred users into phpBB, since they are transferred in phpBB with their wp hashed password that phpBB do not recognize, yes have to reset pass to be able to login via phpBB side, do you mean this?

Since installing W3all on wordpress to integrate our PHPbb3 forum I have had members contacting me to say that passwords they have used for years are suddenly being rejected. Is this a known problem to you.
