    Hi,

    I am unable to import data from csv because it has empty latitude, longitude. But I want to import without latitude, longitude and set them manually later. How can I fix this? Need urgent reply.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    add 2 random coordinates for all listings and fix them later. They can’t be empty.

    They are mandatory fields: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-export/#mandatory

    Remember that you can get lists of coorindates from a list of addresses with a tool like this: http://www.findlatitudeandlongitude.com/batch-geocode/

    Thanks

    Thanks you paolo,

    That tool worked great.

    Another question. If I remove a not required column from csv for which I am not interested for current data set, or I re-order the columns, Will import still work successfully.

    Thanks

    No, you need all the columns and they cannot be re-ordered. You can leave non-mandatory columns empty.
