Import into v2?

Hi all.

I figured it out:

1. Import to multisite ID1 according to the above
2. export to xml using the WordPress Standard Exporter
3. edit the WordPress Export / Import-Plugin according to THIS. This lets you import duplicate posts.
4. import

Worked well, but I′m looking forward to the importer…

Kind regards.

Hello again, When will the importer be available and where can we buy it from? I have a fresh copy of version 2 and that table doesn’t get created when I activate the plugin.

thanks!

Hello,
your plugin is awesome, thanl you very much, i just regret the CSV import, when would your add-on be avalaible ? You said in comments that you’re working on it, i would be pleased to buy this add-on, Thanks for answer. S

@jlruiz1717 You either need to install 1.2.25 first to create the table, import the posts through phpmyadmin, and then install 2.0 to have them converted. Or as described in this post, create the table in sql yourself and set the wpsl_version field back to 1.8 in the options table to trigger the conversion script.

@sardyine @jlruiz1717
There is no release date yet. I’m done with the import section, aside from the default import functionality, it also supports custom data fields and the option to bulk update existing locations.

I’m planning to give the export option some filters, so you can export locations by zip/city/category, once that is done I need to write documentation and create an add-on page on https://wpstorelocator.co/.

Hello darthsaschi, can you post a link to the docu-link please, I’ve searched everywhere for it.

Cheers in advance, regards, Simon

Hi Simon.

No problem.

Boom, thank you sir darthsaschi, just made my friday.
Now if only findlatitudeandlongitude.com/batch-geocode was a little quicker ??

Thanks again.

Now if only findlatitudeandlongitude.com/batch-geocode was a little quicker ??

HA, imagine to do this yourself ??

I′M SO THANKFUL FOR THIS!

??

Yes me too, can you imagine! ??

I just wanted to add a thank you Tijmen Smit for a great plugin and to everyone else for clear, easy instructions to another success story. Thank Tijmen Smit, can’t wait to buy the version.

I also wanted to share this I found for faster Geocoding (Although it is limited to about 1000 lookups a day due to api usage).

It uses a Google spreadsheet and a macro you copy and paste into a Google coding project. You run a function and off it goes down the page. I have a few Google accounts and set up multiple instances, got 3000 done in about 15 minutes ??

Love this plugin. Super simple. I wrote a quick import script that can import locations via a directory of CSV files. It adds a button to the admin backend via a notice. It’ll take a little bit of editing on your part to set up the columns of your CSV (so please only use this if you’re a developer and understand what I’m saying). It reads all of your CSV data into an array of locations and creates posts from there (feel free to var_dump to see the data and make sure it’s correct).

Currently, it’s set up to insert 25 posts per run, which can be upped if your server can handle the request time. It will not insert duplicates. It fires off a request to the Google Maps API for each location, so keep that in mind while testing as they do have a per-day usage limit. I’ve used this to insert ~2000 locations from a single CSV. Here’s the gist: https://gist.github.com/ezekg/7a839c615f905499ae46

Tijmen Smith, let me know if you don’t want this posted here and I’ll remove it. I don’t want to infringe on the add-on that I’m sure you’ve been working hard on.

Sorry for my english,

But I found a plugin help me to import a csv list of my store and keep the relation between the store and the store categories in the last version.

It’s very easy to use. You have to precise in the csv header your field.

EX:
in the column post_type you have to say for every store: wpsl_stores
in the column tax_wpsl_store_category: your store category

It’s works with every custom post.

Hello, above you mention installing the older version of the plugin to get the table in the back end. Do you have an older version of the plugin to download somewhere?

thanks!
Jackie

On the plugin page you can download past versions ??

@jlruiz1717 running this code in phpmyadmin will also create the table.
