Warning: Major Changes of the synchronization workflow between FluxBB and Piwigo accounts! This version of the plugin is only compatible with Piwigo 2.5.
* There is no more migration account function. Only synchronization between Piwigo and FluxBB user tables are necessary. Synchronization action performs a mass operation (applies to all users of the gallery) while the audit allows to treat the each case seperatly.
* Due to the difference of passwords hash between Piwigo and FluxBB, they are no longer synchronized through the plugin interface. After a synchronization of accounts by an admin, affected users must change their password on the gallery to be valid on the linked forum. To do this, they will be automatically redirected to their profile page and a message will encourage them to make the renewal of their password. That will initiate the password sync with the forum and allow them to connect.
So far, the existing accounts on a FluxBB forum but not in the Piwigo gallery are not synchronized to Piwigo. The audit did propose only their removal. You can keep these accounts in the state pending a further programmed evolution of the plugin.
