如何将用户从旧数据库导入新的Joomla MySQL数据库？

Question

So I have this old list of usernames and email addresses supplied by a client containing the fields Business Type Name Date registered Telephone and Email

I have posted an html version of the php file that contains the php code here http://www.localdirectoryltd.co.uk/admini/business-list.html . If you inspect the code you will see the lines of php.

I have recreated the website that uses this list of users using Joomla and SobiPro. I now need to recreate the user accounts on the new site as normal Joomla registered users.

I know how to locate the user table in the new Joomla MySQL database using PHPmyAdmin.

I have no idea where to start or how I would go about moving the usernames, names and email addresses to the new database. Can anyone with MySQL and Joomla experience please help and send me in the right direction?

Many thanks

There's a component for this. It's called userport and you can find it in the Joomla Extensions Directory: http://extensions.joomla.org/search?q=userport .

You'll have to make a csv file or something in the like, but it should be pretty straightforward.
