    Hi All,

    I am newbie to this aMember, I am using aMember Trail for testing.

    I have installed aMember in Moodle 1.9.5, but the users from Moodle database are not migrated to aMember, How can i achieve this.

    For clarity I say I have hundreds of users in my Moodle Database, once after installing aMember plugin how the users from Moodle tables will be copied to aMember tables.

    * If I go for purchase this aMember product can I have same features or will I have any extra features are added to it?
    * The code is encrypted with ioncube and zend encoders, will this be same in the aMember Pro also or I can edit the code?

    Thank you

    1) The way the aMember integration works is that the users originate in aMember and are propagated to 3rd party applications (like Moodle) for single signon and protection.

    In your scenario you would need to export your existing Moodle users to csv, import them into aMember, mass reset all of the passwords (can be randomized) and email the users their new passwords. This is a one time activity since moving forward all users will originate in aMember, not Moodle.

    2) No, the pro version is not encrypted, you can fully edit the code.

    Yes. The only file that is still encrypted is the file that manages the licensing of aMember. Everything else is open.
