Plone 2.5.5 system.

I have a site that I had set up a while back configured with membrane/remember. It has been working just fine. I now want to add some additional member fields to the plone defaults, such as phone number. I thought I might be able to just create a sampleremember product and add it to the site. I created a product successfully and tested it by creating a new site and adding users. Worked just fine, and my new phone field was searchable & addable.

OK, so now I tried to add it to the existing site, and it is not working as I had hoped. The problem is that the existing users are not being offered the option to add the new phone field. New sampleremember members seem to work OK, but I have been unable to migrate the existing users.

yup. when you change the default member type, it doesn't automatically migrate all of the existing members. i'm afraid there's no out-of-box support for this at all.

Any suggestions?

it's not that hard to write a content migration script. i'd recommend making use of the contentmigration product, which provides a number of useful base classes that are very helpful:
