    I have tested this and it seems to work ok for me, can you provide wp-admin and i will test on your server.
    If you can provide FTP and DB access i will be able to fix any problems i find.

    Thanks,

    I have run the updates. I have also run import with override but it seems still the same.
    Check it out Stiofan.

    It seems to be a weird problem related to server local and/or saving CSV on mac computers, see here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2238971/fgetcsv-ignores-special-characters-when-they-are-at-the-beginning-of-line

    The dev has added a wor around to our code, he has uploaded the fix to your site and it will be in the next version, please check now.

    Thanks,

    I tried upload of the data and it reached limit of iterations of my server provider/or it crashed my site. Can you catch it falling?
    Workaround seem to need extra queries. I had one another plugin whose CSV import was unuseful (too much iterations), maybe just because of that.

    Hi,

    normally that can be solved increasing PHP time out and maximum execution time.

    Your current values are very low

    Please try setting max_execution_time & max_input_time to 3000 (or a higher value) in your php.ini and memory_limit 256M has suggested.

    Let us know if that helped.

    Thanks
