    Thank you. I thought I had posted it here in the jobs section to begin with.

    I’ve been able to find the WPGD function I need, but I’m just being dragged down a rabbit hole of additional WP functions needed to support it. My PHP skills just aren’t that good and I need someone more familiar with writing for WordPress to assist.

    Can anyone help with this? It’s simply beyond the scope of my abilities for the time I have right now.

    Thanks Stiofan. I’ll investigate this route a bit further.

    That would work, for a one-off upload. My source table is going to be continually updated with new locations and I really want something that can be used as part of scheduled tasks on my server. I’m needing help with one (final) step of an automation process I’ve built most of… To give context, here’s the process.

    1) Query data provider API using zip codes (Done)
    2) Retrieve schools near zip code and insert location data into MySQL table (Done)
    3) Query MySQL schools table for schools that are not in WPGD directory (Done)
    4) Retrieve school data from MySQL table and create WPGD Places Posts with it (Partially done. I’ve started constructing the loop that would insert data for each school, but don’t have a WPGD function to submit to)

    If there’s a wrapper for the CSV upload I can use, or another existing function, I’d be very happy to go that route. As it stands, I’ve not found that in the documentation or something clear in the code for the plugin of a function(s) I could use to get there.
