    • What is proper CSV file format for uploading users?

    Posted by dthacker posts: 31 United States

    Platform Debian Sarge, Tikiwiki 1.9.2

    The mouseover says the format is
    user, password, email, groups

    These strings are failing:
    maa, mypassfoo, mymail at bluestrain.net, MarsDiv1

    "maa", "mypassfoo", "mymail@bluestrain.net","MarsDiv1"

    'maa','mypassfoo','mymail@bluestrain.net','MarsDiv1'

    According to my CSV documentation, these should be valid. What is the valid string format?

    Do you have a first line that contains
    user,password,email,groups
    This line is mandatory
    After this line, I think (at least for your 2 first examples) must go through

    Thank you sylvie. smile It works very well. Just one note for whoever stumbles across this. In 1.9.2, the header line will always show in the results as "rejected". For example,
    if I bulk load my file foo.txt:

    login, password, email, groups
    foo1, foopass, foo at bluestrain.net, masterfoo
    bar1, barpass, bar at bluestrain.net, novicefoo

    The bulk loader will show 2 records loaded sucessfully, 1 rejected.
