p45433 Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Hello all. I am building a store for a charitable org. and would like to be able to import all our 700 members into the customer table. the reason for this is to already have them in the database when they arrive (an encouragement to visit the new site) and to use the Newsletter function to let them know to do so,etc. Is there an easy way to import 700 customers and their basic data; name, address, phone, email Additionally, I'd like to change the field "Company" to "Chapter" and give them a dropdown list to select from (to keep the various chapter names uniform). THanks in advance for all help. PEte
Guest Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 @@p45433 You COULD import their basic information but you CANNOT create a password for them, so it would be of no benefit to add the basic information for them. You could send out a newsletter asking them to create an account, this would most likely be the best idea. You can change the "Company' text field by altering the /includes/languages/english/create_account.php file. However adding a drop down will require edits to the aforementioned file, and also the /create_account.php file as well as the database and most likely the /includes/functions/general.php file depending as well as some files in the admin side depending on how you want the list to propagate.
