 * Hi,
    I just succedded to import my csv file with my users. But if I don’t have
   problems with the buddypress, the user_name and email fields, for the others 
   defaul WP fields, it doesn’t work. I read the documentation tab, and all the 
   forum, and, I didn’t find the key : for user_nicename, display_name, nickname,
   last_name, first_name, I named the colomns with the name of the fields but only
   last_name, first_name worked, but still, at certain positions. Sometimes if I
   change, doesn’t work. So, the first two colomns are the user_nam and the user_email,
   then I have all my buddypres fields. Where do I have to put the default WP fields
   columns and with what sorting ?
 * Thanks…
 * Laurent

 * [@laudag](https://wordpress.org/support/users/laudag/),
 * Except of first two fields, the sorting is not important.
 * For the rest of the field you have to use the keys of each one as the name of
   the column.
 * I did the integration into BuddyPress some time ago, and now I am not sure where
   you can find it.

 * Well… I found the answer.
    Fist and 2nd position : username and email 3e : password(
   or user_pass) then : Buddypress fieds then : all Wp default meta user datas as
   first_name, last_name, user_nicename, display_name, nickname, etc.
 * Thanks !
