Upgrading dx_auth to tank_auth - El Forum - 07-22-2012
[eluser]webnology[/eluser]
Hi everyone,
I'm upgrading our application to CI2. We have been using dx_auth in the old version, and I would like to switch to tank_auth, as t is based on dx_auth. IS there some guidance to do that? Did anyone try this before,and has some tips to make it go smoothly?
All help appreciated,
Michel

I don't think it is as easy as you think. I would like to migrate from freakauth which was one of the first to tank_auth or another new auth system. I have looked into the code and it may be a little difficult.
The encryption methods and the tables/fields make it harder to simply upgrade.
Maybe time to bite the bullet and freelance this job.

So it might be an idea to ask our existing users to change their email address, after we've imported the users table from dx to Tank? We don't have so many users yet, so it won't be a big issue I guess.

If you do not have many users, swap out the auth system for the one you want. So what if a few users have to register again.
Why are you switching, any key reasons?
