Migration from Zen Cart no passwords, user names
« on: May 17, 2016, 08:08:53 AM »
The migration tool from 1.2.7 worked great. Now looking at the imported data I've noticed that customers were imported but a generic login name has been generated, like gen_d9c53c1a398dba5ec99e630e6c3e1753. The password was not imported ether and is showing blank in the dashboard customer info. Can this info be imported correctly? BTW, zen cart used the email address as the login name.

AbanteCart allows email address as login by setting. Please check admin->settings->checkout "Require login name" switch. To use email as login you should to set it to OFF.
Otherwise unique login name will be generated automatically during migration.
Regarding passwords. Most of carts have unilateral encryption (only encrypt, but not decrypt) and  different approach for it.
so at this point to import passwords is not possible.
If you know the correct way to decrypt, please let us know.

OK, changed settings but the migration was already done. So I think I have to roll back and do it again. No problem, just evaluating at the moment. As to the decryption, I'll try and find out if it is possible.
