Import specific categories or import in blocks

Hey Ed,

Darn tootin’ they’re not going through. We have pretty tight SPAM filters due to the overwhelming ridiculous mail we get, sorry we missed you and thank you for being diligent.

I see what you’re saying about choosing specific categories. Makes complete sense, the logic is sound. What isn’t sound or logical is Square.

Although they have a pretty extensive documentation some of the ways they go about doing things can be … odd.

Your hosting is pretty archaic to have such a low number. Per page load you could have over a hundred (or more) queries with a heavy laden eCommerce site. But this isn’t about your hosting. Even though you should truly consider moving. We do moves for free and optimization for free. Give me your email so I can white list you on email.

Anyways, I’m going to investigate this for you and I’ll give you a quote. Thank you for understanding such specialized needs on a free plugin (especially one without the premium options that so many plugins have these days) is quite costly on our limited resources (even Ninjas have to eat).

Quote coming today. Post your email in whatever cryptic form on here and I’ll write you personally.

No, don’t. Really do not post any email in any cryptic form on these forums. Just don’t. ??

@customwpninjas If you’ve a contact URL (not email address!) you can post that here in your plugin’s sub-forum. But don’t ask others to post their contact details like that.

Jan I will now add this to my ever growing list of things to avoid, enjoy the coffee. (going to be hard to receive an email from him when he is getting spam blocked though)

Ed, use an email from a known provider like gmail. It has the best chance to go through. Fill out the form on the bottom right hand side to email a ninja, not to subscribe to a ninja.

I have been using my gmail address but will try again. I’ve tried sending directly, and from the contact form on the site, as well as the contact section of the plugin itself.

Fingers crossed…sending again.

Ed

**Sent

Still no response, I’m guessing your spam filters don’t like any of my addresses.

I’m going to try an XAMPP install and import into a local WP installation and then make my selection in MySQL from there, or I’m going to spend the weekend manually adding the items to woo. :/

Ed, man, I’m sorry you’re dealing with this ridiculous workaround to try to get in touch, I really am.

Few more ways for you to try:

Twitter @customwpninjas.com – Tweet or DM

One of our plug in support sites: https://easyquizwpexamtesting.com/contact/ will give you a different email you can try to send directly to.

Or even call the number in the banner for this plugin, one of our Ninjas will answer, tell them the issue and they will make sure you’re passed along to me.

Fingers crossed, and look forward to talking to you soon!

Hey Ed,

Every Ninja on staff has been made aware of your situation and are looking forward to solving it – find a way to contact us outside of what you’re doing now, I’ve literally got nothing from you even in SPAM.

The XAMPP method didn’t seem to want to work, not even a partial import though I can only assume that it’s due to some configuration error on my end.

Client lost patience and I just manually entered the inventory items. This isn’t a large enough project for me to spend this much un-billable time on so I’m going to have to table this for now.

Thanks for the effort,

Ed
