Adding multiple roles

    Hello,
    I’m trying to import users with multiple roles…specifically a WordPress role of Subscriber and BBPress role of Participant.

    Both of these work if I do them individually with a header of ‘role’ and the correct value. If I try to add multiple using value1::value2 as the values under ‘role’, neither works.

    Is there a way to import a list of roles? What should the header be when importing multiple roles? Still ‘role’?

    Thanks very much for your help.

    I think I may have figured it out. I changed my delimeter to a pipe “|” and then separate the roles by a comma. That allowed me to add both roles on import.

    Let me know if that is the solution or if the “::” is supposed to work when using comma separated. It would be a lot easier since Excel saves as CSV.

    Thanks!

    @psenechal,

    Yes in the role case the correct format is: role-slug-1, role-slug-2…

    I do not use Microsoft Office (only free software as LibreOffice) and with LibreOffice or OpenOffice this is not a problem.

    I have to improve it to avoid problems like yours.
