OK well i tried searching the forums but the keyword gives me many topics..
my question is.. after i import all users ect ect form ipb..
users have problems to log in like their password don't work i currently run a board with over 80 thousand members and well is going to be a lil hassle to activate and change all those passwords with lazy people or people who don't know
how can i activate all those accounts so that when i import the user can login with his current password?
Depends on what version of IPB.
If its 1.3 the passwords should be fine as long as the usergroup has been sorted.
If its 2.x then passwords aren't imported and this is the option :

There is no option to do this in vB. This requires modifying the code. We cannot officially support code modifications or forums running modified code, however you can try searching or asking for help with this over at www.vbulletin.org.
