Field name for importing users info
-
Hi,
I am trying to import a bunch of users using this plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/import-users-from-csv/
Its working fine except I need to add them to a specific group as set up by the Groups plugin. What is the field title I need to use to include that data?
I have tried various – groups_member, groups, group, group_ID, none of these work.
Thanks if you can help.

Hi,
Groups uses data structures that go beyond user metadata to determine the group memberships of a site’s users. The plugin you mention states:
It will add users with basic information as well as meta fields and user role
But it does not seem to support the additional data that Groups uses. If you would like to have a solution based on that import plugin, you might want to reach out to its developers to see if they would be able to add support for Groups.
As an alternative and what would be the recommended way to import users with support for Groups, you could use the official Groups Import Export premium extension.
