    I’m also getting emails every 5 minutes after the user is created. Is there something I do not understand? I’ve turned off that activation, but I still have the logout and need to reset the password.

    In the interim, I am manually sending sign-ups through, but I’d like to know if you’ve run into anything like this and if you have any ideas for potential solutions.

    I love your plugin Javier because it seems likely to allow me to use typeforms to sign up users for my website. which is great for conversions. I’ve used WP sheet editor and it doesn’t cron CSVs as easily as yours, and right now.

    I’m sorry but I don’t quite understand the problem. Regarding the login problems I understand that they are caused because you change their passwords, is it possible? Read the documentation to prevent passwords from being changed.

    Regarding the emails, what emails do you receive, are they from this plugin?

    The problem as I understand it, is every time a recurring import is run, users are forcibly logged out, and cannot log back in. The only reason anybody changes their password, is so they can log in again, which they can… until the next cron job logs them out, and they are unable to log in again. The issue cycles. I have included the “Password” column and left it both blank or filled, and emails are sent regardless.

    The emails were coming through wordpress SMTP mail at the exact interval of the reccuring import cron (5, then 15 minutes when I changed the interval to test), which leads me to believe this is coming from Import and export users and customers, but I cannot begin to understand why.

    When I turn of periodic import and recurring cron, the user can stay logged in, but then nobody from the csv is being imported.

    I can manually cron users in as the sheet fills, but I’d prefer to use the recurring cron as an automated solution if possible.

    In the CSV do you have a column with the password filled in? If you have it the plugin will update the password, even if it is the same (for security it does not know it) and then of course it will log out. But this is something of any system that has an authentication with username and password.
