Fed up with Ning?
We heard you! Introducing the WPMU DEV fully supported powerful user import tool that just works!
This plugin is designed to fully import all of a Ning network’s users, their custom profile fields, and avatars to BuddyPress.
Ning to BuddyPress User Importer plugin
Following the simple install, you just activate the Ning to BuddyPress User Importer plugin and use your new “Ning Importer” menu item under the BuddyPress menu to easily import all of your Ning network members.
BuddyPress > Ning Importer page
While members are being imported the plugin displays a user-friendly status page with a nifty list of user avatars, details, and current progress as the import page refreshes and processes the import file in batches of 5 members.
Members being imported
All imported members receive a fully customizable introduction email with their login link, username and password.

And on the off-chance you have a very large Ning member list that’s too big to upload via the plugin, you can alternatively use FTP to upload the file and import all of your Ning network members.
Neato heh? No more pesky Ning — now you can have a fully functional BuddyPress social network where you control the content!
