usersearchindexattributes and akID on import

Permalink
Hi guys,

I imported a bunch of users from one site to another by exporting and importing all the DB tables that start with 'user'.
After I updated the salt in config.php, everything worked fine, only the custom attribute values from the old site didn't show up, though the custom attribute keys did. The attributes were there in the DB just in the "Search Users" area of the dashboard they were empty.

Figuring that the akIDs just didn't match, I then imported the old attributekeys table as well, but that didn't help.

Then I undid everything, created the attributes manually in the new site afresh with identical handles, made sure the akIDs were identical to the old site, and redid the import. Still, no love.

Both installs are 5.5.2.1.
