    Hello,

    then, leaving out a post ID would add them as new.

    The import works on your site as designed, when I tested it with a listing.

    Please let us know if you have more questions.

    One piece of advice is to first do an export of listings. This will give you a CSV file with the proper format.

    Open it with Libre Office, remove all the rows, and add a single row with all required data. Then test your import process. If it works, it will be a good guide for what to do for the additional listings.

    Street address is require, but some rows are empty.
    For the second set, this is likely to do with special characters or formatting from your editor.

    Hello,

    I see a post_url column. Was that in the original export?

    If you export the same CPT, the upload must be in exactly the same CSV format, meaning the column headers and column order are a perfect match.

    Row 7 has a special character in it. In theory this shouldn’t be an issue, but, you could just remove it and get it uploaded and added it back later. Encoding issues can sometimes make special characters much more of a problem than they should be.
