users importing issue
Hello

I am trying to import a users database I have that was created using the e-mail address only into my current users table..

The problem that the import requires the username and password to be specific..

I have over 1100 users to import and I do not wanna create the user name and password for each one of them cus that will take for ever...



Is there a way to do this so LINKS SQL will auto generate all other field and I will just import the e-mail address?
Regards

Hello!
  1. Get Import to enter the Email into Username
  2. Let it generate a random password during the import.
  3. In all other fields, let the value could be NULL equal to Yes, or if required, enter a default value of that field also.
