    Hi,

    the only way would be to copy the same icon name for all categories in the CSV file.

    Thanks for testing.

    Hi Paolo! That’s exactly what I did, but I’m not clear about what format should have been given. Should it have been a full URL with http? A relative URL?

    With almost 1000 categories, I did not want to set the icon manually for each. I finally found the forum post that shows where in the database to set the default icon if one is not specified (and this can only happen on import, since creating a category in the dashboard requires an icon). I set my default icon to the desired image.

    Then I tried to update via import all my categories to have no icon image, but the import would not let me do this. I ended up deleting all my categories, then re-importing them on a csv with no icon specified, which forces the plugin to use the default.

    Eventually, being able to set a default icon for all categories via the dashboard would be a nice feature.

    Thanks for all your help!

    Hi Bet,

    that option already exists and can be found in :

    GeoDirectory >> Design >> Map >> Upload map default marker icon

    Thanks
