Before I get too involved with using this module, I have a couple of questions:

1. I already have several core profile fields set up. Is there a way to migrate those fields to the Bio module?

2. What is the plan for drupal version 6? I read the dicussion about joining forces with nodeprofile. Just wondering if there will be a migration path to whatever will be implemented in v6.

3. If I allow Bio to take over the user page, will that get rid of what other modules stick there, like subscriptions?

Thanks!

Hi Nikkol,

This is an old one, but I'll answer anyway:

1. There's no real upgrade path, but it's a fairly simple database query or a small PHP script. The cost/benefit on doing this (or hiring someone) depends on how many fields and how many nodes.

2. Content Profile is the recommended D6 upgrade path. Your profile information lives in nodes of a particular type, and these modules follow along and create a relationship between those nodes and users. What I'm saying is that your profile-as-node module selection is fairly interchangeable, since those modules mostly just provide a display layer and views support.

3. Yup!
