    Hi,

    Our plugin uses CSV files:

    1. For exporting the information collected through the forms. The option is available in the “messages” section.
    2. To use as datasource for DS fields in the Developer version of the plugin.

    In both cases the operation run in the server and is instantaneous.

    Best regards.

    Hi,

    From Excel it is possible to save the data in CSV format, and use the file as datasource for the “DS” fields in the Developer version of the plugin. You simply should insert the DS field in the form, select CSV as the datasource to use, and imports the file.

    Best regards.

    Hi,

    The “Import/Export” area allows to import and export the forms of your WordPress, and the format used in the form files is not CSV.

    If you want export the submitted information to a CSV, you simply should press the “messages” button corresponding to the form, and press the “Export to CSV” button:

    The CSV files are used too in our plugin as datasource for some of “DS” fields, the fields with multiple choices (DropDown DS, Radio Button DS, Checkbox DS). Simply, insert a DS field in the form, and select CSV as the datasource option. The action allows to select the CSV file to be associated with the field.

    Best regards.

    Hi
    I thought “Form controls with datasource connection” only used for mysql. But as it looks it can be used for import from csv. and etc.
    Thanks
