This is wierd
When I open up example.csv in excel, then save it (File>Save As) and select the format Comma Separated Values (.csv) with the file name example2.csv then import it, it doesnt work. But if I tried importing it as just the original example.csv, it works perfectly… How can this be possible? Excel is breaking the .csv?
Broken
I thought I could simply export my events, and then import them on another site. Export, get a file. Import, select the file. Simple, right? Nope. Doesn’t work. Not only does it not know which fields are where and put stuff in the right place, forcing me to manually confirm that, yes, the Event Name data goes in the Event Name field–I mean, surely there’s a way to build that in!–but then it doesn’t even import everything it exported! Categories? In the file, but not imported. Times? Gave some BS excuse that ending times were before beginning times. That’s not true, but again, that should be easy to verify on or before export if it’s an issue on the import side. Venues? Not even exported! Can’t suck in what you didn’t spit out! What good is an event if it doesn’t include a venue? I mean, come on! Thanks for the tease. Guess I’ll have to manually recreate my next two months of events and venues after all. Version 2.13.7
Very useful
Big time saver. Worked perfectly for me. Was so glad to find this! Feedback note: I would prefer separate fields for start date, end date, start time, end time, rather than date and time combined into one field.
