 * Start Importing button is missing in the “Import users from CSV” page. Version
   is 1.8.1. Buttons are available in Cron and Mail Template pages.
 * Help.

 * I haven’t tried the import yet. I will try the importing process as soon as I
   have a Duplicator backup downloaded.. and No errors on the “Import users from
   CSV” page of Import users from CSV with meta plugin.
 * Thanks Javier

 * Ok, I have to find another way to do this. It seems like BuddyPress loads in 
   a different way than other plugins and not all BP is loaded when I call some 
   functions (although I have used the bp_init hook).
 * This weekend I won’t be able to work on it but next week I solve it!

 * I have installed your plugin in a mock up site for testing. But I haven’t tried
   it yet. So far no errors in the wordpress Dashboard.
 * Can you please help me with
 * 1. The meta names as column name as I am not very familiar with all of them.
   
   2. Also can I export the users table from phpmyadmin and maybe use the column
   name for the csv file ? 3. Would the password field remain unchanged even if 
   I modify the csv file exported from phpmyadmin for the wordpress user table. 
   and re-save it in excel ? 4. I just need to know that if I changed the 1st and
   2nd column to suit username in the 1st column and email for the 2nd column, the
   passwords would still be recognized by wordpress in the migrating target site
   for the users.
 * Thanks
    Paul

 * PumaOnHolyJade,
 * Please try and tell me.

 * You have to use meta name as they are registered.
 * > 2. Also can I export the users table from phpmyadmin and maybe use the column

 * Yes but you have to use the correct format.
 * > 3. Would the password field remain unchanged even if I modify the csv file 
   > exported from phpmyadmin for the wordpress user table. and re-save it in excel?
 * Delete the password column. You cannot use password directly from database.
 * > 4. I just need to know that if I changed the 1st and 2nd column to suit username

 * You have to use the correct format, you cannot change the column order.

 * I think the problem is solved in version 1.8.3.
 * If not open a new thread.
 * Thanks.
