I tried copying my current members to a local test install. Any member with a Stripe ID was not imported.

I assume it is because my local Ghost install is not set up with Stripe. Is that correct? If I had Stripe set up on the local site (or another site), would all members import correctly, with their correct Stripe information?

I don’t see a way to manually enter the Stripe ID. So, if my paying customers are not imported, what do I do?
