Title: skipped rows feedback? Last modified: August 6, 2020 --- # skipped rows feedback? * Resolved [markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/) * (@markbildner) * [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/skipped-rows-feedback/) * The plugin is very flexible, but can you tell me is there a way to see which rows are skipped in the import? If we add a bunch of new users, it’s likely that someone is going to have a username that conflicts with an existing user. We can see what is added, but this requires the user to go back and compare the output row by row to find any missed users. * I tried to find the answer here and in the documentation. Sorry if I missed the obvious!

The skipped users (duplicate userID) don’t show up. This particular output is from the front end page, but I got the same result from the admin console. There is a button to see the results, but that is just the user screen. Am I missing a setting or perhaps looking in the wrong place? * In case it was not clear, I am NOT updating existing users. - This reply was modified 5 years, 11 months ago by [markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/). * Plugin Author [Javier Carazo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/carazo/) * (@carazo) * [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/skipped-rows-feedback/#post-13218569) * [@markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/), * What you see is what we show now. * Duplicate user ids should have some kind of title like “This user was called before like: “User already exists as:” * Thread Starter [markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/) * (@markbildner) * [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/skipped-rows-feedback/#post-13218781) * Any reason this message is not showing? * I just did a default install of WordPress 5.4.2.

It does not import (because exists) nor update (because you set it to no udpate). * I don’t know which error are you trying to find. * Thread Starter [markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/) * (@markbildner) * [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/skipped-rows-feedback/#post-13222389) * If you are importing new users, and some of the list is rejected because the username already exists, there is no notification. The only way to find the people that you missed is to manually compare the file with the screen output. I would think this should show up as an error: “username already exists” or “email address already exists”. * Plugin Author [Javier Carazo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/carazo/) * (@carazo) * [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/skipped-rows-feedback/#post-13222967) * [@markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/), * No because most of users, use this plugin to update periodically their users so if we show a message always, it has no sense for them. * Thread Starter [markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/) * (@markbildner) * [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/skipped-rows-feedback/#post-13269795) * Yes it should be conditional on whether you are updating existing users. But nevertheless it makes sense to be there. it is difficult to check to see if a new username is going to collide with an existing one! * Plugin Author [Javier Carazo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/carazo/) * (@carazo) * [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/skipped-rows-feedback/#post-13273086) * [@markbildner](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markbildner/), * We can create an option to show always if an user exists. * We have to prepare a new UX so now it is complicated to include it but in the future we will do. * Thanks for the idea.
