On one of my websites, I have been using EasyProfile for a long time. It is the only website not yet converted to Joomla 4.

EasyProfile is not coming back with any potential date that they might have a resolution for Joomla 4. The whole community is upset due to this lack of communication.

Is there a way that I can replace EasyProfile with Community Builder without too much of an issue converting the user data? Have about 600 users on the training site. EasyProfile does not sync with Joomla or custom fields and they do not know when they will be J4 compatible.

Your assistance would be appreciated.

I don't know the database structure of EasyProfile, but in theory yes it should be relatively easy to move the data over using SQL entirely. First re-create whatever fields you're using in EasyProfile within CB > Field Management. Next you'll need to review the database structure of EasyProfile compared to CBs _comprofiler table.

You should just need to do a INSERT SELECT query to move the data over. Only things that could be a problem are likely image fields as where the image is stored compared to where CB stores images will be different so you'll probably need to move some files around as well.

That should at least cover field data, but there's other concerns like privacy controls that you'd need to figure out how to migrate to CB Privacy as well.

Thanks, Kyle. I thought it would be something like that. That will be a major project. Thanks for your feedback.

If you can provide an example of the profile data database structure (e.g. its column structure or describe the structure of field storage) I can try to provide you an example to help you get started.

I only need a database description of how user data is stored in the database. So just a structure export (don't need to export the actual data, just structure) of the database table where user data is stored will be sufficient. I should be able to provide an example with that.
