Adding drupal users with pre-existing civiCRM records
January 19, 2009, 12:19:12 pm
I learned belatedly that the synch goes from drupal to civicrm and adds records to civicrm but not users to drupal. Nwo I need to added drupal users (we have a lot of supporters who have never created a user on our site).

I want to make sure I don't send them a welcome email everytime I add someone. Can I do this safely using the drupal admin user management tools? and after I add drupal users and synch them with civicrm, do they remain synched? ie - if someone logs into the site as a user and updates their email that will be reflected in the drupal user and the civicrm record?

Thanks

yes u can add drupal user using drupal admin tools and/or the user_import module. Once synched, an email change in Drupal is propagated to CiviCRM and vice versa
