Can I use a custom user database?

[hasanmerkit]

Can I use a special database? If I can use this database, I am thinking of buying.

mydatabase = > users
password method: md5(real password + salt)

What exactly do you want to accomplish?

But I think the answer is no. Xenforo uses Bcrypt for user authentication.

You can use any authentication source, but you would have to develop your own authentication class - XenForo does not support this out of the box.

You can't use a different schema without extensive custom development.
