Hi @Ariev_Archerys,

OJS 2.x used either SHA1 or MD5 hashing. OJS 3.x uses a more secure hashing method, but also supports the older OJS 2.x hashes, so that as users log in their hashes will automatically get updated to the new style. That’s what you’re seeing here – the short hashes are OJS 2.x style hashes, and the longer one is OJS 3.x style.

Make sure that your OJS 3.x installation uses the same encryption setting in config.inc.php that OJS 2.x did.

Hi @Ariev_Archerys,

That’s not related to this thread. I’d suggest searching the forum for that message; if you’re not able to resolve it using the instructions already posted, then create a new topic and provide as much detail as possible.
