myBB 1.2.8 import?

[Oras]

Hi,
how can I import myBB 1.2.8 using impex please? It supports importing 1.2.2 and I tried it and received errors in importing threads/forums/private messages for users.
Please I need this urgently :(
Thank you

Will need more than "errors" to diagnose what is going on and to update ImpEx.

I recognized the problem.
I restored my DB from shell ... that caused arabic language to appear as rubbish ... so I removed it and import it again using phpMyAdmin and everything imported great.
I have another problem now ... after importing, no user can log! error in password ... does vB use md5 or another encryption? I even updated the passwords manually from old db to the new one ... same problem .. can log.
Any solution for this please?
Thank you

Please stick to your own thread.

here is a solution for the passwords :

For the MyBB importer, ImpEx expects the source passwords to be MD5 and unsalted.
