Passwords and custom user fields left as they are after anonymizing an account?

I anonymized 1772 users, all of whom kept their import_pass custom fields. Also import_id, but I care less about them.

Thanks for adding these details

These fields come from Migrated password hashes support.

So it’s not directly related to Discourse. The plugin can be safely uninstalled a while after a migration, when most members have logged in at least once. I don’t know if uninstalling the plugin keeps these fields or not. My guess is it shouldn’t keep them, but if it does, you could empty them from the rails console.

Regarding the password: You are right, the hash was changed. I didn’t take notice of that. Maybe you can add this information to the first post/the docs?

Sure, I’ll do that soon.
