category manager

Post by fibrolan »

Hi, I have been using category manager to categorize my contacts. I see under the other tab when editing a contact that there is a different category fields which are MFFAB categories is there a way to copy the categoriies form each contact to match in the MFFAB categories. I would like to be safe in case the addon category manage ris not updated and will not work in future updates.

I hope this makes sense what I want to do. I have 4000 contacts and I do not want to do this manually.

Robert

I thought CatMan has its own export function which exports the CATEGORY field and the CATEGORIES field.

The CATEGORY field is for MFFAB.

The CATEGORIES field is for CatMan.
