Why don't fields names match wp_user?

    Javier,

    Good morning! I ready to import users to my WP site but an concerned about some discrepancies in your documentation.

    Your example (and test file) notes the following field names (Username, Email, Password, Address, City, State, Zip code & Country) … but the wp_user file notes the following field names (ID, user_login, user_pass, user_nicename, user_email, user_url, user_registered, user_activation_key, user_status & display_name).

    Why don’t these field names match each other? Bottom line, can I use the wp_user field names to upload data?

    Thanks,
    Mark

    twoagc,

    This plugin was not created to include wp_users directly, anyway you can use almost all of them as you can read in the documentation.

    Respect to metadata, every metadata is different for each plugin or theme, so you can use the one of WooCommerce for example, or whatever you want.

    I, also, have fields “First Name” and “Last Name” and it’s not importing into those fields–creating META. Is this not an option?

    The best way to import those fields is directly using those headers:

    • first_name: The user’s first name.
    • last_name: The user’s last name.

    As you can read in the documentation tab.

    Did you read it?

    Hello,

    Where is the documentation tab? I do not see it with the others.

    Thank you.

    Which version are you using? You have to use the last version and you will see it.
