Has XOOPS got any modules that does such a thing?
all it needs to do is select group(ie:registered) and then save groups members username password and email address' to a .csv
so i can import it to a new site
i would be grateful of any information
thanks

eejut:

Go to your database...
Select users then Browse

It is possible that the stored encrypted passwords will work for your purposes. (I believe you can export to cvs)

Good luck...
I was 'teasing' you anyway.

Have you tried phpMyAdmin to do this?

There is a module called the membership module that may do what you are looking for.

OK, this leaves the answer simple: no, there isn't a module that does this.

And there's a reason for that as well: user data is private data and therefore subject to privacy laws. Then there's the security aspect to take into account: all passwords are stored as MD5 hashes (encrypted values), and cannot be decrypted. This ensures that only the owner has the password to the account. Experting passwords to a csv file isn't secure or decent in privacy terms.

So these features block your request. You can get a lot of data by making a dump of the users table in your database, and importing that into excel and take it from there. But the passwords, you will not be able to get.
