I am completely stuck. I have built a new site using WordPress 4.7.2 . So far, everything is fine – moving old posts, articles\/pages, plugins, etc. The trouble I am having seems to be the same trouble many have – an easy way to export all current users and user data\/passwords and then import them into the new site. I have zero idea why this process is so elusive. It SHOULD be standard. I have about 27k users. I have tried to export the users via PHPMy Admin, and through the use of many (mostly cumbersome and not working) plugins like Cimy, Export WP users, etc. none have worked. A few things:<\/p>\n
1. The users in the old site had special fields pertaining to the LMS that was in place. The new site is stock – meaning those fields don’t exist. Not sure if that matters though.<\/p>\n
2. The old site was a much earlier version of MySQL and WordPress. not sure if that matters either. <\/p>\n
At the end of the day, I have spent hours upon hours trying pretty much everything I know to try- and reading every blog\/how-to I can find. It should be as simple as exporting the old users database and importing the new one. No such luck. I’ll do anything to get this accomplished. please – please-please help me. I’m lost! Thank you so very much in advance!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-8823923","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/8823923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/8823923\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8823923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
