    Someone asked me to install a new wordpress(2.6) and to use member data in one of old version.

    The old one can't be update,because it have been made some modification..

    I read the document,and it says that password is double hashed..,and it's not md5(md5(pass))... what algorithm does it use?

    how can I convert the password to apply new version?

    Don't know. But you could maybe extract the password fields from the old database and insert them into the relevant places on your new database.

    I just found that the password which only is treated md5 would be convert automatically to a new version..
