I'd like to dump some of my VB account into phpBB3 for testing. When a new user gets added to the database I know they go into the user table and user_group. Are there any more?
Cheers.

Yes in configs newest_username gets the last members nname that joined and num_users increases by 1

Re: Bulk Adding users
Uhh...don't just manually add users directly to the database. Use the user_add() function in includes/functions_user.php

Best idea is to create a script to import directly from your vB users database, then insert them using the add_users() as penguin noted.
See the Olympuswiki article for more information on this function.

Many thanks on this. The docs are very helpful.
