Anybody tried already some solutions?

#343795: User Import 6 with Content Profile
Comment #7
garbo commentedI have a solution for importing both users and their content-profile using this module (node import).
1 first import the users through node import
2 import the content-profiles and here comes the magic part: at step 4 of the importing process (where you map the columns to their CCK fields) under "author information" you need to reference the author with their e-mail adress. This way the created profile is matched with the correct user!
I tried it and it works!!!
I hope this is usefull to anybody. Would love to see any reactions from people who tried it.

garbo commentedoh, btw:
I'm using this method and not the user-import module because I need node-reference fields and taxonoy-fields to be filled. This is not possible through the user-import module.

How do I import users through node import? Shouldn't that be through user import? Very confusing....

grasmash commented@mahnster
He's referring to the User Import module, which has Content Profile support.
the Node Import module, despite its name, does support importing users. Just select "Users" in Step 1.
Comment #11
ronanrbrwhen users are created in de 1st step, the content-profiles will be created automatically, then before you import content-profile you will need erase all profiles created by de 1st step

MrRedPants commentedI've been reading on this thread, and this one
https://www.drupal.org/node/633358#comment-2707016 and this one
https://www.drupal.org/node/653524
I have users set up ( I believe using content profile). There are standard user fields, but I also have selectable fields from taxonomy.
I was testing out user import module and it works very well for the basics and I like it.
I can map certain fields in csv document to the taxonomy options, but, it doesn't "take"
In reading, there seems to be some combination needed of importing using node profile, content profile and / or user profile.
I have figured out importing through user profile and node profile, but, seemingly a missing element, importing content profile I can't figure out.
Can anyone lay this out more specifically on exactly HOW to accomplish this? By this I mean
Create a CSV file with user information, including first name, etc etc - basic fields, but ALSO fields that map to taxonomy choices for that user (in our environment the taxonomy choices are location, department, job title, etc).
Thank you!
