    Hi Paolo,

    Are you saying that to upload custom fields you add them to the file after images and then those fields will be uploaded and generated in GeoDirectory. OR do we need to set up custom field in GD first and then match the html variable name?
    I’ve tried both and had little success.
    Is there a special type of delimiter we need to use depending on the field type?

    Thanks,
    CK

    Hi,

    You need to set up the custom fields in GD first and then match the html variable name in the CSV after images.

    If you have phpmyadmin access, you can create a custom field and check how the system creates in the DB.

    Than copy the same thing in the CSV file.

    Hi Paolo,

    That makes sense but the custom fields still don’t populate. Any chance you can take a quick look at this file and tell me what I might be missing?

    thanks

    Hi,

    I’ve split this topic so that you can send me wp admin credentials in a private reply.

    I need to have a look at your back end and test the file to let you know for sure.

    Let me know,

    Thx

    Hi,

    the problem is quite simple, but being so tiny, it can be overlooked.

    Your html variable are

    geodir_cusine
    geodir_goodforfeatures

    But if you hit f2 on the the cells containing them, you will notice that you cpied them with a space at the end.

    which in a database would look like this.

    geodir_cusine 
    geodir_goodforfeatures 

    Not finding that in the db, it didn’t add them.

    Just remove the space from after the html variable name and it will work.

    Thx
