Importing members from Ghost

Using Jamroom

Hi Clay

1) The importer module does check for duplicate email addresses and will not import a new user with the same address.

2) No. What I suggest is that you temporarily clone the quota(s) that you want to import profiles to and instead import them to the clone quota. You can then send emails just to that quota using another module (jrNewsletter I think - need to check that). At some point later you can then move all imported profiles from their clone quota to the original.

As the Importer and Exporter modules are still in beta, can I suggest that when you have created the CSV file you first send it to me so that I can run it on one of my test sites to see if things work ok, before trying it on your live site?

Thanks

Hi Clay, this is what you need to do...

1) Install both the jrExporter and jrImporter modules from the marketplace beta channel.

2) In the Exporter module's plugins/CSV/samples folder there is a sample_members file. Use this to create a csv file with all the exported Ghost members.

3) Configure the Exporter module selecting the CSV plugin and pointing it to your file.

4) Run the Exporter. This will create 'intermediate' JSON files for the Importer module to use.

5) Run the Importer module. This will use the intermedite JSON files to import your members as Jamroom Profiles and Users into your Jamroom site.

There are two modules that can be used in conjunction that will likely achieve what you want, jrExporter and jrImporter. They are still in beta so not in the regular Marketplace.
Its a long time since I developed and used them so I'll refamilerise myself with them and get back later with how they might be able to help.

Here's the documentation for the iFrame module - https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/2924/iframe-control

I think its fairly simple to set up and use - Let us know.

No problem.

I was offering just to try it, to see if the module is still functional with latest Jamroom. We wouldn't charge for that. If it does look as though its ok, we'd then give you the cost of the whole job.

Here is the link to our Import services - https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/serviceshop

Please note that whilst we did this a lot a few years ago when Jamroom5 first came out, we have not done it now for a long time and there have since been many releases of Jamroom5+ that may have introduced issues with the Import module.

What I suggest you do is raise a support ticket with us giving the location of the sites, their admin logins and FTP access (so that I can install the modules). I can then assess as to whether the process still works with the latest Jamroom.

Thanks
