HELP]]> https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/csv-duplicates-on-upload-help/#post-36716 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 20:01:30 +0000 thebirdiemachine Hi,

I was trying to upload a CSV file when I noticed the import status bar saying that I had TWICE as many records as the CSV file REALLY contains – the good part is that I aborted to upload so I do not have any duplicates.

I do need to upload lots of files – when is this issue going to be fixed or is this the first time you have heard of this (which I would doubt)? This is really a pretty big problem.

I an running GD 1.3.9 and have NOT upgraded because I have seen posts with duplicate problems what seems to be a whole host of updating issues so I was waiting until these were resolved.

Is this duplicate record upload related to the “duplicate” issue that I have seen cross my email box?

Thanks
Stacey

Please attach one of your file and we will have a look.

Finally you should really update your plugins.

Thanks

I fixed the comma in N17 – however that had did not fix the problem. GD uploader still saying there are 90 records when there are really 45.

HELP]]> https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/csv-duplicates-on-upload-help/#post-36732 Fri, 10 Apr 2015 01:22:05 +0000 thebirdiemachine Further when I select my file from my computer – in the GD window somehow a whole bunch of crap get inserted before actual file as below:

http://www.muttmaps.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/temp_1/Yelp-Play-4.9.2015-Play-Upload-GD-Format1.csv

The file that I am trying to upload is: Yelp-Play-4.9.2015-Play-Upload-GD-Format1.csv

What is this about? Does it have something to do with me aborting the upload in process???

Also I cannot undo this – meaning I try to erase everything up to the “Yelp…” with my delete button but no joy with that either.

I see 2 things that could be the source of the problem.

1 the & symbol used in category name. I would try to change it to & (html code for &)

2 dots in your file name. Try to remane it to something like :

Yelp-Play-4-9-2015-Play-Upload-GD-Format1.csv

If the above doesn’t help, please provide url and wp admin credentials and I will have a look.

Thanks

Please mark this as resolved (for now LOL)
