Right Guy's

On my forum it is saying that everyone's password has expired we have changed nothing in the admin Cp , It is propting every account to enter a new password but when this is completed it loggs in and says the same message agagin , or it says it will post a new password to our email we put that in and the loop starts again .

This is very confusing as we can not even get into the main Admin account.

Any help will be very much appricated

possibly the force password change has been set to a very low number?

If you can't log in you'll have to do it via php my admin

I reinstalled for them. Works now.

All the settings were fine, it turned out to be something changed by the hosts that did something to the mysql db...

I'm actually pretty sure I know what the issue is and am looking now at a way to fix it for 1.1.6

The password hash works on an IF statement. If your host changes it later, then the IF statement will use a different hash method, causing every password to fail. Or so I think. Still looking into it. Thanks for letting us know about the problem, though.
