Hi,

as we have 110 000 users in our database, how long will it take to reset all these passwords?
Number of users to process per cycle is default to 100. What does this do? Can we set it to 110 000?


Many thanks!
 
In addition:

Password Reset
Found under "Maintenance" in the AdminCP menu for this mod
Resets all users' password to a random number
Emails user detailing the password was reset for security reasons
Contains username included in the email in case they forgot
Contains direct link to the Change Password form in the UserCP

-> Where can we modify the content of the emails that are sent to the users?

Many thanks!

Impossible to say, but you can just leave it running and it'll complete on its own.

Exactly what it says on the tin, it processed 100 users per page. This is to avoid PHP timeouts.
Can we set it to 110 000?
Doing so would make the password reset fail due to timeouts.
Where can we modify the content of the emails that are sent to the users?
Change the dbtech_vbsecurity_resetpw phrases :)
 
I gave you the phrase variable name, did you try searching for it?

If you search for that varname in the Phrase Manager, you'll find "Email Subject" and "Email Body" phrases. It should be clear which phrase to change from there :)
 
Hi

the application stopped all of a sudden? Processing 258xxx while we have 100000 members in our database?
Is everything done? Or do we need to restart from 258xxx and deliver the rest?

How does this work?
Please contact me on +32(0)473965730 to discuss.

Many thanks!
 
We do not offer phone support, sorry.

You should restart the process from the point of failure.
 
How do I restart from the point of failure?
All information I can give is that it stopped at processing: 258xxx

Please advice!
 
Could you please create and PM me with a temporary FTP and AdminCP account?

For security reasons, we recommend you create a new FTP account only for DBTech support, then disable or delete it after we have both confirmed the issue has been solved and there are no further issues.

The same applies to AdminCP accounts; they should ideally be temporary accounts created for us only. If we have created an account on your site already, you can optionally boost that account to Administrator and then de-admin this account once the issue has been solved.

If you use a .htaccess password protection for your AdminCP directory, it is recommended that you create a new authorised user for DBTech and remove this user once the issue has been solved.

Please test any temporary accounts you create to ensure that the FTP account has access to the forum files, and that the AdminCP account can access the administrative controls for the product we are assisting you with.

Ensuring this is all in order before submitting the information will significantly speed up the process of assisting you. We will alert you via PM if there's any issues with the login information you have provided.

When sending the PM, for your security you should also un-tick the "Save a copy in my Sent Items folder" checkbox. When the access details have been received, we will delete the PM from our inbox. Ensuring you have not kept a copy of the PM reduces the risk of security breaches.

Thank you for helping us debug our products and allowing us to assist you, we appreciate it :D
 
vBSecurity's IP verification is preventing me from accessing the AdminCP using that account.
