I have a CSV file but this plugin didn’t work.

This plugin does NOT support EVERY type of CSV file. File structure must match with the sample one.

Some strange characters are displayed in group name and/or group description after i import file, why?

Change your CSV file encoding to utf-8 and retry.

I’m getting `request timeout` messages while trying to import CSV file. What should i do?

Split your CSV file into two or more and retry. If it still continues, contact your hosting support.

I’m currently using BuddyPress `Group Forums` component, is it still possible to auto create forums?

No. BuddyPress officially suggests NOT to use this component. Instead you should use bbPress.

Is it free to use on several sites and/or domains?

Yes, if you follow licence guidelines.

Is it free to sell to 3rd parties?

Yes, if you follow licence guidelines.

May i translate into my language?

Yes please, i’d be very pleased.

Are you planing to add more features?

Yes, may be, i dont know…
