I want to change the Community Builder (CB) profiles that are currently on our website to core Joomla profile so that we can take advantage of repeatable fields in subforms, and some other features in other apps. I would like to import specific fields directly into a subform. Can RO CSVI do this? I know your documentation states that this app is not compatible with CB. I can export the data from the CB profile table in the database as a CSV file if that helps.

Hello,
I would like to import specific fields directly into a subform. Can RO CSVI do this?

You can import to subform using RO CSVI in a specific format. If subform has two fields say text and textarea then the supported format to import to these fields would be fieldname#fieldvalue. Multiple fields are separated by |. Check the sample CSV. But May I ask why use subform? Any reason? You can directly import into user custom fields using Joomla user import template in RO CSVI.


"email";"username";"usergroup_name";"password";"subformfield"
"user1@test.com";"User1";"Public";"newpwd";"textfield#Text field value|textareafield#This is a test text."

Yes we do not support community builder. You can use Joomla user import template to import user profiles.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
Kind regards,

Thank you tharuna. I run a website for a dog club. Users sign up for classes, and many own multiple dogs. I want to use subforms because they can handle multiple dogs in one account. I'll dig into this a bit more.
thanks again.
