I want to create a user accounts in the GDN_User table using SQL insert queries. So far, test accounts I've created this way are unable to login. I'm assuming that's due to password hashing, but what's the proper method for disabling hashing?

    You need to hash the password properly before inserting it into the database table. There is no way to disable hashing, and attempting it is a scary, horrible idea.
