    I’d like to use the same CPT on multiple GeoDirectory installations.

    I looked at the database but I couldn’t really tell what tables to use.

    Can you provide a short explanation on how to export and import CPT from one install to the next? (using phpmyadmin okay).

    Doing it from the database is really not a walk in the park unless you do an export / import of the whole database.

    You’d need to export from several tables and you’d have to export selected data from them. Not the entire table.

    It’s really not an easy task…

    Why not using the built in import/export features?

    Let us know,

    thanks for prompt response

    Why not using the built in import/export features?

    In GeoDir Import/Export it doesn’t export an empty CPT. What is included in the export – categories only or does it include listings?

    Documentation doesn’t discuss importing CPT’s only that listings/categories require CPT to be manually entered in Admin.

    would be interested in bulk feature that doesn’t require manually creating CPTs.

    That is not an option, CPT must be created in advance.
    Even if you export directly from the DB you should export the CPT options too.
    Thanks
