Trouble importing custom user meta from CSV

    I’m trying to upload users from a CSV file with the following headers…

    Username
    Email
    First Name
    Last Name
    Password
    Pharmacy Name (custom field)
    AVID (custom field)

    Apart from the username & email, none of the other data seems to be uploading. I’ve tried using wordpress’s default profile data for First Name (first_name) & Last Name (last_name), but neither of those seem to work either. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

    @evanjmdavies,

    Those fields:

    Pharmacy Name (custom field)
    AVID (custom field)

    Are not standard so you have to use the meta key that corresponds to them.

    How have you created it?

    Hi Javier,
    I’m importing a CSV file with fields:
    user_login user_email last_name role
    GarbageGuru [email protected] Bage Paid

    I’m also setting the default role to “Paid”. This import completes successfully but does not update the role field. I’ve tried username as the first field name without success.

    Column role must contain the role slug.

    Slug have no uppercase for example so surely it will be “paid” instead “Paid”.
