    Is there a way to import csv larger than 2mb? 2mb is just too small for the job.

    thanks

    Thanks Kor,

    Is this config controls any upload? eg user uploading images, video etc as well? I set it to 2mb as I am trying to avoid user uploading big files while creating listing. If it is, I then have to change ti every time before and after I import CSV

    Please advise

    Reconfigured, now uploading.

    Another question, what if upload data without Latitude and Longitude info? will system automatically fill it with google API according to the address?

    Hi kai liu,

    Yes, that’s correct and this is the section of the documentation for your reference https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-general/#general

    When you upload listings, you have to manually specify the langitude and longitude.

    Thanks

    I have map coordinates in csv already. So it should be alright

    I have finished uploading, however, clicking Import Data Now and nothing happened. Please advise.

    I use provided sample data csv structure to prepare import data.

    there are some null fields including ID. Do I have to create listing ID in my CSV data? I was thinking GD will auto create ID as importing.

    What other possible cause for not importing?

    To import data, is address a must? any change to allow NULL for address field? then manually create it later?

    Hi Kor,

    Document mentions that address fields are required for importing data. However, when loading dummy data, all dummies has no address. How can they get pass this? In our case, some of the listing has no address. How can we load csv data without address?

    Any place we can manually over rule this?

    Thanks

    Hi Sam,

    It’s mandatory to specify an address as mentioned here https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/core-export/#mandatory . For dummy listings, it uses your default location and generates random addresses over that.

    Thanks!

    Thanks,

    when click edit to check the dummy posts, the address fields are all empty.

    Anyway, is there a way to bypass address?

    Thanks

    Please see: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-the-http-image-upload-error-in-wordpress/

    This error is usually associated with an issue on the server (common), or server software, as opposed to the CMS or plugins (rare).
