Is the Account Import function working?
6mon 4d ago by lemmy.world/u/ThreeStarDave in friendicaworld
I exported from my old Friendica site wist@my-place.social (via https://my-place.social/settings/userexport)and ended with a wist.account file downloaded.
I went to https://friendica.world/user/import,pointed to the wist.account file, and clicked the [Import] button. It pauses a moment, then comes back with the import screen again -- no error, no confirmation.
But as far as I can tell, wist@friendica.world has not been created. Or, if it has, I can't figure out how to sign in or reset the password.
Am I missing something obvious here?
Lacking any other answer, I will have to assume the function is broken -- which is a shame in having to manually re-contact subscribers after I start things up here, but apparently that's the way it goes.
Could you file an issue at https://github.com/friendica/friendica/issuesabout this? There are a few open issues about account import, but e.g. https://github.com/friendica/friendica/issues/15314seems to be different from what you are seeing. Provide as much details as possible like exact versions for the instances you are importing from and to and so forth.
