    Hey everyone,

    So I'm trying to integrate aMember with WordPress. I've installed the WordPress plugin, and it seems to be working correctly.

    The problem I have is syncing the WordPress users we currently have (~300) with users in the aMember database.

    How is this done? What are we doing wrong?

    You have existing members in wordpress?
    The way the plugin works is it copies over members from amember to wordpress- not vice versa.

    You might have to work some CSV export/import magic there... which is always a bitch (pardon my French).

    yes, we've had our forum running for a while now we're moving towards aMember for site management.

    So if we need to move the users over to aMember could I just bring in the usernames and autogenerate passwords which could then be emailed?
