Unfortunately, WordPress doesn't provide built-in functionality for exporting user data. The only way to do it is using an import and export user plugin.

But that's fine. Don't waste your time on essential functionality, just keep adding more features and gimmicks to your Gartenzwerg editor.

Always good if you got your priorities right.

    I wrote a browser automation script recently to enter hundreds of texts into wordpress in a few minutes because this useless pos doesn't provide any import functionality
    Manually doing it would have taken days/weeks

    WordPress is a content management system for simple websites and blogs. You don't need advanced user management for that, but you do need a powerful content editor.

    If you're using WordPress for something where you need to import / export users, sincerely, fuck you and your abomination of a website.

    @Demolishun why keep it to yourself?

    But I see what you mean.

    Some people just share their project's (mu-)plugins as gists so they don't have to waste the time for formalities.
