How are users identified?
-
Hi,
I am wondering how the pkugin identifies whether users in word-press are already in phpbb? Or how phpbb users, navigating to WordPress already have an account?
Is it by username or email, or a combination?I have WordPress users and I have phpbb users, they have different usernames but the same email addresses.

Yes you can do this:
Change email to the user B in WP. Logout the user.
Login with the phpBB user A into WP, that will be added, as no same email found.
Now delete user B in WP, and retain posts assigning to A.Now you should have what you need: an unique user, with all his posts on both phpBB and WP.
This is very useful topic i think: so will be done a little how to/hint and will be added to documentation, based on this.
