Jordan Miller Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Hey there, quick question. I want to import a list of members from Wordpress to IPB. The list has their username and email address that they registered to my Wordpress site. What happens if there are duplicate usernames/email addresses? What does IPB do? Does it not add them, change their username? Just curious what happens before I pull the trigger. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If the email address already exist then the Wordpress and IPS users will be merged into one account. If the username already exist, then a timestamp will be appended at the end of the Wordpress username. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the emails merge, but there are two different usernames for the same email address, which does it use?

From there they could always go in and change their username. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
