    Hi,

    please provide the CSV file that you are trying to upload (make sure to zip it before uploading or it will be blocked).

    I see you are using excel and that could be the problem. Please read documentation about CSV: http://docs.wpgeodirectory.com/core-general/#csv

    We will also need a link to your website and wp admin credentials, that you can send in a private reply.

    let us know,
    Thx

    Hi,

    there is more than 1 problem in that csv.

    1 Delimiters are wrong. They should be commas and not semicolons.

    To correct this you can do the following:

    a Click on Save as
    b Enable “Edit filter settings”
    c Change from semicolon to comma

    2 There are plenty of bad characters throughout the file. Examples:

    in Title: L’ESTH�TICI�NNE
    In category : naturopat�a

    3 Because of wrong delimiters most address are wrong, the second part was pushed into the city field and the city names are now in region and so on…

    4 Latitude and Longitude codes seems wrong too. They should be decimals.

    Once you fix all this it will work.

    Thx

    You need to add the image name for the listing to the CSV file and than copy the image in the folder suggested by the script when you finish uploading the CSV file.

    Did you do both thing? Can you provide a link to a listing where the image is not showing?

    Thx

    Did you upload your images to the correct folder?
    See step 4 of “upload images” at http://docs.wpgeodirectory.com/core-general/#images

    It seems that you entered the filename without the extension in the CSV file.
    This is a one of the links to your images:
    http://psicologiaymeditacion.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/foto
    That shows you used “foto” in the CSV file instead of “foto.jpg” for example.

    It also seems you used the same “foto” for all listings, instead of using the actual filename of the image.

    Did you upload your images to the correct folder?
    It is not good enough to upload the name of the image in the CSV file.
    You also have to upload the images with a FTP program like FileZilla.
