It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/aeiou_a8cad9.svg) # AEIOU By [tosend.it](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tosendit/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/aeiou.0.7.zip) * [Details](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/aeiou/#description) * [Reviews](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/aeiou/#reviews) * [Installation](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/aeiou/#installation) * [Development](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/aeiou/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/aeiou/) ## Description AEIOU is a powerfull plugin that export all WordPress users info into an XML file including user settings and options and allow you to import the same data file into a new WordPress keeping all user informations about the users including the Buddypress XProfile data of each user. #### Dependencies AEIOU requires SimpleXML PHP library to import data. Nothing more than wordpress is required for the export. ## Installation 1. Install AEIOU either via the WordPress.org plugin directory, or by uploading the files to your server 2. That’s it. You’re ready to export/import users! ## FAQ It’s too simple to do what the plugin does… However, have you got a question? Please ask us on forum. Why my imported XProfile fields becomes all of text type? This is because the importer does not keep any information about the field except than Field Name, Field Group and Field Value. Any other information is left behind. So the better way to make an import that grant the exact structure for xprofile field is to create the XProfile Fields on the new WordPress instance before the import is done then make the import. Why the user are unable to login after I done the Import? If you have imported the password field too then It was changed and you have to ensure that the same secret key is used in both old and new wordpress. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “AEIOU” is open source software.
