    Hello people,
    I am a software developer and I’m new here.

    I hope this is the right place to post this. If not what would be the better place, for this kind of query, and this objective?

    I am missing the possibility to update an existing list of users with some new users. In other words, I need to add new users (basically new “email addresses”) to an existing list.

    Be it on the command line (that i can ‘cron’), or an with an API (but it seems you don’t have any). The source format doesn’t matter. It could be a CSV file, or another table of (the same) database.

    If there is no recommended and standard way to do it, then I would have to write a few SQL queries to put the new data directly into the phplist users database. But for that, I need to know which tables are involving, to write the proper queries so that they stay in sync.

    How do I get started? What do you recommend?
    Do I have to hack the import*.php files?
    Or did someone already started a clean plugin to do that?

    Best regards from France,
    Johny

    • Hey, great to meet you” Probably the developers email list is the best place to discuss this. It’s linked on the Development page above 🙂

    • Why not simply import your new users to your list within phpList? I would suggest a better place to ask questions like this is to join the forums and post your query there, you are more likely to get a solution there than here.
