# Import from PHPNuke

 * I have transferred the News from my PHPNuke website to WP 2.5.1 using a script
   I found on the forum, but I’m having a problem with users. At the moment, all
   posts in WP have “1” as the user and a blank space after “by” when viewed on 
   the site.
 * In nuke_stories there is a field “informant” which I was using to store the name
   of the author of a post. It appears from looking at the database that I have 
   to transfer these names to wp_users “display_name”.
 * What I need to know is: what are the minimum fields that need to be entered in
   wp_users. Also must there be a matching entry in wp_usermeta, and if so, what
   are the minimum fields there?
 * I have read the database description but did not get the answers I needed above.
 * Thanks,
    Peter

 * Since one can hardly find useful help here (except for “use the search form” 
   answers), this script might get some insight at what to do to migrate from phpnuke
   to wordpress. You may have to tweak it to your needs:

 * At least this question won’t go without an answer.
