[Bug 731647] Re: Ignore duplicates in CSV upload

 

Additionally, the error message that gets displayed to the user contains
some "br" tags that get printed directly. That needs to be cleaned up as
well:

Line 2 of the file specifies the email address "fake@xxxxxxxxxxx" that
is already taken by another user.<br> Line 2 of the file specifies a
remote username "fake" that is already taken by the user "".<br> Line 2
of the file specifies the username "paula" that already exists.<br> Line
3 of the file specifies the email address "fake@xxxxxxxxxxx" that is
already taken by another user.<br> Line 3 of the file specifies a remote
username "petra" that is already taken by the user "".<br> Line 3 of the
file specifies the username "petra" that already exists.<br> Line 4 of
the file specifies the email address "fake@xxxxxxxxxxx" that is already
taken by another user.<br> Line 4 of the file specifies a remote
username "Polly" that is already taken by the user "".<br> Line 4 of the
file specifies the username "polly" that already exists.

Title:
  Ignore duplicates in CSV upload

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When an institution wants to upload their users via a csv file, but
  some of their users already have a Mahara account, i.e. the email
  address already exists in Mahara, an error message is returned and no
  new user accounts are created.

  Instead, only these duplicates should be ignored and all other
  accounts should be created. Thus, when a csv file is uploaded and
  existing accounts / email addresses are encountered, convert the error
  message into a warning that is printed to the screen and keep going
  with the account creation.
