I am wondering if it is possible to import users from mambo since i have 100+ users. i am migrating over to XOOPS and would not like to make all my members re-regisiter.

What I would do is do a SQL dump of the User tables from both CMS and compair tables. Make a plan to convert your existing tables for Mambo to the structure of the XOOPS User Table.

I do not know of an actual script to do this, someone else may, so it will need to be manually done.

HTH.

At least I'll move my single and last (forever last, I hope) site from mambo to XOOPS with users and content, and I'll have something for this task... Don't ask "when" - I can can't recall (and find) where is XOOPS users table and have to refresh my head

Well if you do LazyBadger it will be a great tool for Mambo users migrating to Xoops. Good Luck to you on it.

User migration tools is certainly a must-have .. .specially if we try to make XOOPS more popular to users of other systems :)

hopefully, someone can really develop this mambo to XOOPS conversion script (at least just for the user migration part).

this will be beneficial for XOOPS and mambo too..

The XOOPS user table is:

_users
