&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;* Added more data mappings:&lt;br /&gt;
** maildigest&lt;br /&gt;
** autosubscribe&lt;br /&gt;
** trackforums&lt;br /&gt;
** password&lt;br /&gt;
* Implemented the cron method.&lt;br /&gt;
* Added unlimited execution time for auth/db/auth_db_sync_users.php&lt;br /&gt;
* New settings when Password format is set to internal:&lt;br /&gt;
** Create Unique Password: If the password type is set to internal then this setting determines if a unique password is created and emailed to the user&amp;#039;s email address in the external datbase.&lt;br /&gt;
** Only Change this Password: Adding a value to this field causes moodle to only create a password for those users that have their password set to the value. For example changeme will cause all users with the password changeme to have a unique password created and emailed to them. Leave this blank if you want to change all users password when their acocunt is first created.&lt;br /&gt;
** Force Password Change: If the password type is set to internal then this setting determines if the user is forced to change their password on their first login&lt;br /&gt;
* Performance improvements:&lt;br /&gt;
** With original code, attempted to create 100,000 users and execution was terminated after waiting for a long time (hour or more).&lt;br /&gt;
** With the new code, created 20,000 users in 36 seconds and 100,000 users in 188 seconds.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
