🧠 Notes & Recommendations

Always back up your databases before performing imports.
The import process reads data directly from the existing plugin’s database or data files.
Make sure the source plugin’s data files or database are still accessible when running the command.
Imported balances will overwrite any existing player data for the specified currency.
The plugin automatically maps player UUIDs and usernames during import.
Depending on the data size, imports may take a few seconds to complete.
