Thread:Extension talk:WPMW/Importing old MW users into WP?/reply (2)

Thanks for your detailed reply.

Not sure how I will handle the transition...

I noticed another issue: if I enable WPMW the old wiki users can't login with their MW password - probably because there is no WP account for them...

Is it possible to use the MW password instead of the WP password for login?

I checked my phpMyadmin and it seems the passwords are hashed - so I will have to set new passwords for everybody or they will have to register a WP account and choose their old password? I saw that there are WP plugins with which a user can choose the password during registration.

However, using the old MW password would make things easier I think...
