    Thanks

    Lots more testing here, including clearing out all data (dummy and mine) so starting clean

    Insert 10 dummy records using the GD system and into the default ‘places’ category

    export listings in both Safari and Chrome, import with even opening the file, still the same issue

    Perhaps relevant – opening the csv in libreoffice, then without making any changes, saving it as a text csv, it claims it can’t save it as a csv (as shown by attached pics)

    This then makes me wonder if the v2 export is actually working properly and creating a proper csv (if it isn’t this would answer the problem of course)

    Any thoughts guys?

    Quick update, I have tried this CSV export and immediate import on both Safari and Chrome, so I don’t think it’s browser specific

    Look forward to your ideas on what to check/ do next…

    Thanks

    Thanks for the tip Alex

    So I followed the instructions, have now installed Libreoffice

    Created one new sample record via the admin GUI which sits alongside the sample/ dummy data already installed

    Downloaded the csv export, made no changes to it, tried to upload, and got exactly the same error, which gives this response in the debugger

    Totally baffled!!

    More info that may help identify the issue…

    Where usually (being on a Mac) I use safari, if I use Chrome then I do get an actual CSV file. So without toughing it, I tried to upload this – failed with the same error pictured previously

    If I open using excel, then I get an error talking about SYLK

    If I open using Mac Numbers, then no error, all looks fine, yet still produces the error upon import

    Hope that helps!

    I am still really struggling with the import I’m afraid

    I did download the sample CSV, although it doesn’t actually download, it just puts the text on the screen which I then have to copy and paste into a text file to then make into a CSV

    I then have several issues with this which I’m finding confusing:
    Sample csv gives me these headings:
    ID,post_title,post_author,post_content,post_category,post_tags,post_type,post_status,featured,video,street,city,region,country,zip,latitude,longitude,neighbourhood,neighbourhood_latitude,neighbourhood_longitude,timing,contact,email,website,twitter,facebook,post_images

    export csv of the listing I have already created however gives me there headings:
    ID post_title post_content post_status post_author post_type post_tags post_category default_category featured street city region country zip latitude longitude email website twitter facebook logo djepcode phone video special_offers business_hours post_images

    As you can see, the columns are in a different order. This may or may not cause a problem, I don’t know

    However, if without touching the downloaded export CSV I then try to import it, I get the screen shot attached (and because the error box is so small I cant read the error (clicking on it doesn’t help))

    The instructions you linked to above also mention this about images – ‘The CSV file has columns for any images you want to add to your listings, look for the IMAGE columns,
    You can add additional columns if you want to add more images to your listings, they all should be named IMAGE.’

    Yes as you can see from the headers of the downloaded CSV’s, there is no IMAGE heading, it’s post_images and there’s only one!

    I’m sure its me that’s creating this mess, but even after following the instructions I am still totally lost.

    I simply want to be able to import a CSV (using the default headings and a small amount of my own) which really shouldn’t be too hard.

    FYI I have created CSVs in Excel, Mac Numbers and even an online CSV creator, none of them will import

    Please help!

    Thanks

    Pete

    Hi Alex! The export is actually from a different directory software – Business Directory if that’s not swearing in here 😉

    So far I’ve manually added the content for all columns in the default template, so as you suggest, should all be ok

    My far more technical colleague has this afternoon managed to create a mySQL query to create a CSV without several hours of me copying and pasting.

    GD confirms XXX records successfully imported, so I suspect the CSV is ok (apart from me not knowing what data to enter into the post_category, so they all go to the wrong category and Greater Manchester location – weird!!

    Sample of my CSV is attached in case you can spot any idiot errors (every chance!!)
