Hi Melissa,

Are you running Multisite? I have not upgraded the plugin to be compatible with WP 3.1 Multisite. You may be able to make it work be looking in the import-from-ning.php file for references to ‘admin_menu’ and changing them to ‘network_admin_menu’.

Hi, I installed the plugin. Uploaded the Ning Files into my directory as instructed, but the Ning Import link is not showing up under my Buddypress dashboard? I am thinking perhaps it is because I am running Buddypress on a secondary blog instead of my main website? Would you have any solutions for fixing this? I would really appreciate any advice you can offer. Thanks so much for providing the free plugin!

Hi the importer is a great tool!
Where can I change the link in the notification e-mail to the users.
Now it says http://www.domain.nl/wp-login.php
But I want them to go to http://www.domain.nl/

Tony – Splitting the CSV into multiple uploads is about the best advice I can give for now. Make sure that you maintain the header row, or the plugin import won’t work. Otherwise you might check out the plugin from wpmudev.org, which costs money but allows you to use a file that you’ve uploaded via FTP, bypassing some PHP memory limit problems.

As for the email users thing: that’s a WordPress thing. It’s possible to make a checkbox, but that would require additional development. In a future version, I may add such a feature, but it’s unlikely that I’ll update the plugin in the near future, as I don’t have a lot of time to do pro bono work at the moment.

Any recommendations on the import timing out in a shared hosting environment? I’ve brought in about 156 users out of 738, but now have to split the CSV file. Also, the whole email users thing should be a choice, not forced. You should have a check box to email users or not. I want to get all my users in and make sure everyone’s in the system, before I notify. Are you planning on updating the plugin so the notification is a choice?
