    Hi there, we have a ‘closed’ site where we create users then inform them of the logins. When doing this in bulk is it possible to have Users Passwords Not Encrypted in Export CSV? We want to be able to export the users password to be able to manually copy/paste it an email to the user for initial login?

    Hi @kevin-fouche,

    Sorry to let you know that the original password of the users cannot be exported to the CSV. The user password is stored in an encrypted format in the database and our plugin just exports the data from the database to the CSV file as it is.

    Hi @kevin-fouche,

    If you are migrating the users between 2 WordPress sites then the password will also be migrated and the users can use the same old password on the new site to log in. There is no need to send the passwords to the users for logging in.

    Hi @kevin-fouche,

    Sorry to let you know that the plugin does not support exporting the actual password to the CSV file.
