Hi,

I’ve read and hopefully followed all the instructions for importing a csv file for multiple locations, but I still receive this:

4 / 4 item(s) could not be added due to blank/invalid address(city, region, country, latitude, longitude).
4 / 4 item(s) could not be added due to blank title/invalid post type/invalid characters used in data.

Could you show me where I have made a mistake? Attached is a test list to upload. There are several blank fields, but I don’t have that information yet.

Hi Andrew,

If you do not have the “Location Manager Addon” installed, you can only add listings in a single city/region/country. Here is what you can do, import some sample data/listings following this instruction https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/guide-to-setting-up-your-geodirectory-website/#install . Then export the listings and see how the listing information is added https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-export/ . Remove the sample data and reimport your listings. Let us know how it goes.

Thanks!

Hi,

Ok – I searched around the forum for more answers, but I’m not finding the right one. I have got it down to only one error now, after properly saving the csv and adding the multi-location add-on.

I now get only this one – so I’m making progress…

could not be added due to blank/invalid address(city, region, country, latitude, longitude)

I still know I am doing something incorrect. Any suggestions?

Hi,

post_address is mandatory. If you don’t have an address repeat the city name or anything else, but you can’t leave it black.

Thanks
