Question:

I want to import my members. What is the minimum information that I need to populate in the database?

Answer:

* group_id - the ID number for the member group this user belongs to
* username
* screen_name - can be identical to the username
* password - can be MD5 or SHA1
* unique_id - a random 32 character string, used for session cookies.
* ip_address
* join_date - Unix time stamp correlated to GMT time.
* email

There are two additional tables that must contain a row for each member, correlated with the member_id of the member:

* exp_member_data
* exp_member_homepage
