Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When exporting your user settings for migration, currently the Collectives are not included. We should see if that is possible.

The files are already exported (or, can be), and they would be in the Collective folder, but I suppose without the Teams setup it won't work. I also don't know what happens to any metadata and settings?

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing how user_migration exports settings and how Collectives data is stored in the Collective folder, then check the Teams dependency and existing metadata or settings handling. Done means a migration preserves the supported Collective content, metadata, and settings, or clearly documents what cannot be migrated.
