For a manual installation via FTP:

1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in your WordPress admin area
1. Upload your XML file in the 'Users' menu, under 'Import From XML'


To upload the plugin through WordPress, instead of FTP:

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How to use? =

Click on the 'Import From XML' link in the 'Users' menu, choose your XML file, choose if you want to send a notification email to new users and if you want the password nag to be displayed when they login, then click 'Import'.

Each element in your XML file should represent a user.
If a column name matches a field in the user table, data from this column is imported in that field; if not, data is imported in a user meta field with the name of the column.
