Which version of UM are you using and which Export plugin?
The link issue is outdated because of a later fix to UM.

I am using Version 2.3.0. This is the plugin that i am using. https://wordpress.org/plugins/import-users-from-csv-with-meta/
All it does is pull the values from the database.
@kc9ryt
I have created a bunch of custom dropdown fields and noticed they store the users choice as a number instead of the actual value …
Multi-select dropdown values are stored as serialized arrays with the real values by UM.
Single-select dropdowns are stored by value by UM.
The Export plugin is using the serialized values as a string for multi-select dropdowns.
Solution would be to ask the Export plugin developer to export these values using a PHP implode after an unserialize of the array.
@missveronicatv
Is there no way to change how the data is stored? I know text entries are stored just as text not in an array from what it seems so i am curious if there is a way to either edit the plugin or to use some sort of hook to change how the data is stored?
@kc9ryt
Ask the Export plugin developer why they don’t export serialized arrays as imploded strings. Serialized arrays is a very common WP format and not only used by UM.
Hi @kc9ryt
Also, ask if there’s a filter hook to modify the data before exporting the users.
