Andy Woods	Wednesday 18 May 2011 6:47:00 am Hi, Is it possible to import users from a csv file? I have searched the forum and found a few posts but I haven't found any that describe a simple process to do it. Thanks, Andy

Andy Woods	Wednesday 18 May 2011 7:58:54 am I've had a quick look at the extension but can't see any information that explains how to import users. Have you used it to import users? Is it a straightforward process? Is this the easiest way to import users? Thanks, Andy
Jérôme Vieilledent	Thursday 19 May 2011 1:05:53 am Hi Andy Users in eZ Publish are actually content objects with an ezuser attribute, so it is straightforward :). I already made an implementation of user import in my JanrainAuth extension (to connect user from social networks like Facebook). Take a look at the JanrainAuth class, in getUser() method. You also might want to read the SQLIImport fromString() Appendix to learn how to deal with ezuser datatype. Take also a look at the documentation because there is a set of classes to handle CSV files ;). Cheers !
