    Hello.
    Can you tell me if gravity answer to these needs, before i buy the add-on user registration.

    - we have a csv file of members with different labels : name, number of something, address, etc etc (some personalized labels)
    - can gravity define same labels on the user registration ?
    - is there any way to import this csv so that gravity has the same database ,a nd then we just have to define a login and password ?
    > if these are possible, fine ! :-)

    and another one functionality more. If possible > wonderful ! :)
    when someone tries to register via gravity, is there a way to check on a label (e-mail for example), if his information are already on gravity database ? so that he does not have to answer to fill everything; we will say. "ok we know you, your informations are already in the database, just provide a username and hten you will receive password via e-mail"

    thanks for help

  2. Gravity Forms does not offer a way to import existing CSV data and create entries. There is a mass import plugin available, but I am unsure if it works to create users as well: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-mass-import/

    You can use the user registration add-on to bypass registration for anyone already in your database.

  4. With the user registration add-on, if the user already has an account and has logged in, then you have access to all their information already, since you know about them. If they are not logged in, you would have to check their email address to see if it is already registered, before sending them along. It would require a bit of PHP code to check to see if they are registered, and if so, to access their information.
