John Moritz	Saturday 11 July 2009 5:08:18 am I have added some attributes to the user class. One is a Date atribute which will represent the users birthday, one is a field for the user gender and many more. I imported users in Exponential from an existing community, but with missing those attributes which still exist in my old sql table "members". Now i need a little script where i can update all Exponential users. I added the contentobject_id to my "members" table in sql. So i know how to make the loop, i still dont know how i can update the userattributes on Exponential. So i only need this short snippet, pls.

Hi John,

you may searching for something like this?

//get the Object
$object = eZContentObject::fetch( your id );

//get the data map from this object
$dataMap = $object->attribute('data_map');

//set attribute "birthday"
$dataMap['birthday']->setAttribute( "data_int", $ts );
//store attribute "birthday"!
$dataMap['birthday']->store();

//store the object!
$object->store();

//clear the view cache for this object 
eZContentCacheManager::clearObjectViewCache( $object->attribute('id') );

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Best regards

Max Keil
