Converter SMF to MemHT
#post13126
Is there someone who can make a converter from SMF to MemHT?
I still have some site which uses SMF 1.1.4 (Simple Machine Forums) and would convert them to MemHT Portal 4.0.0

I have tried to put the content over to memht but the biggest problem is the coding of the passwords.

I think it will be nice to have a converter from SMF to MemHT, and i think that more users are happy to have such a converter.
It is impossible to explain CampZone, you have to make it trouch

If passwords are stored in a different format than md5 (for example "salted" md5) than there is no way to port them

SMF uses sha1 with a salt of the lowercase username.


here you even have the password script:
code
sha1(strtolower($username) . $password);

this is what i know from my work neighbor Smile!

that means it will be a very very hard work!
(I don't say impossible because with php nearly everything is possible Smile)

Then porting those passwords is impossible (you could try to crack each of them with a brute force hehe)

hello

i would recommend two solutions:

1- creat random new password and email the users with the new password

2- change the password encoding system in Memht to the one used in your previous forum
