I managed to upload almost a thousand places with the first release of GD just using a .csv from MS Excel.

After the new release and even if I tried to use OpenOffice Calc, following all the instructions and so on… still nothing.

I upload the file and after clicking on the import button nothing happen, not even an error message.

Is anyone else having the same issue?

Thanks

Hi Vikas,

Will the new release you just mentioned work with bulk uploads using Excel?

Never use EXCEL.

It’s not the right software to handle CSV files. It will add plenty of wrong formatting and alter your data.

Thx

Hi Vikas,

I updated GD and I still have the same issue.

I can’t even upload the test file or a file with just few listings.

Since it was working on the previous version, Can I just downgrade it?

thanks
