Migrating login data to PW

[thomas]

Hello,

I need to migrate a bunch of users from an old symfony site to the brand new PW one. Symfony saves the passwords as md5 hashes in the DB but  I can't figure out how to configure PW for this. I set 

$config->userAuthHashType = 'md5';
$config->userAuthSalt = '';

and pasted the hash into the field_pass DB table of a working user. No success.

What else is there to do??

Thanks,

thomas

Thomas, I don't think you can use pw password field in this. Create new field for legacy pass and save the md5 hash there. Then hook into login to check for that also. And remember to remove the legacy pass when user change his password.
