[Tutorial] How to merge Auth Database with Ipboard

So i found out what is messed up with ipboard and i wanted to share and with rest of you.

So when you use in ipboard External Database for login through in-game account base, you need to replace something

Path: \admin\sources\loginauth\external

File is called

auth.php

open it and search for case 'sha1'

old code replace with this one

case 'sha1':

return (sha1(strtolower($password)));

The reason we have to do this is ipb reads it normally, but in auth everything is upper.

Its a simple fix, and it will work 100% on 3.4.6 version of ipboard, for other versions i'm not really sure!
