Combining multiple sites into one–and the user database

    This is two related questions. First, I am in the process of blending multiple websites together into one. One of the sites has a Woocommerce store. Another has a user forum. Both use the User data and need to be pulled into the new site with the user data still connected to related tables for the forum and online store. Both have added fields to the user data that are different from each other. What is the best way to do this?

    I already had two users entered into the new site–the authors of the blogs I’ve imported in. Then, last night, I attempted to import the forum users. They appear to have come into the user section of my WordPress site. But when I look at PhpMyAdmin for this site, only the original two users are there. Where would the others be stored?

    I also saw a note in the plugin documentation that said multiple imports of users could be done, but the subsequent ones had to have the same setup as the first one. Will the Woocommerce import work, now that I’ve already imported the forum users?

    Thanks for your help!

    @dcbongeg,

    I try to answer you inline:

    1st question
    Export them from both sites and them import them into the new one.

    2nd question
    If users are exported, they are into wp_users table. They have to be there.

    Note on the documentation
    Ignore it, this is old. I have to remove this note.
