Importing members including customized fields

Hi,

I am rebuilding a website that was formerly created in WordPress. Thanks to the custom fields I was able to follow the same data structure that's being used on the old site.

But now I need to import all users from the old database into the new one.

Can this be done via CSV import?

If CSV import is not the way to go, could I then savely simply read the old table via JDBC, and write it in the user table for "Membership Pro"?

Thanks!

Hi

You can simply use CSV import to import old subscribers. Just created all the necessary custom fields in Membeship Pro (the name of the custom fields must be placed in the header - first row- of the csv file).

The CSV import feature will allows you to import data of any custom fields/
