How do we import members without emails? Wordpress does not require an email: This appears to be an artificial restriction of the s2 import. |

It’s the first time I see the email could be optional. When you register an account in your WordPress, without s2Member, using the default registration form, can you do it without an email address? I’ll ask Jason about this, too. |

I am confused by your question. What does the default registration form have to do with the s2member import function? If we wanted the default functionality, we would not be trying out your premium software. We need to import users without email addresses. It is clear that WordPress add_user allows it, as we have done it. It is also clear that others want to do this too. Can do we do it with your import function? If not now, would you consider making it an option or adding a hook? |

If you examine the code a little more, you will find that there is a hook ‘user_profile_update_errors’ which allows you to add or REMOVE error messages with a few simple lines of code. This can be applied to almost everything but username & password – the only 2 items that are actually required. I have 2 sites running WordPress that do not require email addresses for users. There are other plugins, some free in the directory and some premium, which allow this option. I already understand we can hack “imports.inc.php”, but we would prefer you consider this as an option in dashboard or an api hook similar to the way WordPress does it the future. This would be better for our many clients that we are considering s2 for. |

We’ll consider it. Added it to the feature requests. Thanks for the feedback! |
