    After I rollback, my password doesn’t work and I have to reset it to the same one it was before.

    Is that intentional?

    This is happening because WP 6.8 now encrypts passwords with bcrypt when you log into 6.8. Consequently switching between WP 6.8 and any previous version will require a password reset.

    Hi Andy, okay, good to know and thanks for the explanation.

    It might be worth updating the plugin description to warn people that this will happen.

    We can mark this as complete. I appreciate your help.
