    I’ve tried importing my quotes a number of imtes using the IMPORT function. I have converted my csv file to json and validated the file. When I import I get no data, only quote numbers with empty fields.

    json format is as follows:
    {
    “Quote”: “When everything seems to be going against you, Remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.'”,
    “Author”: “Henry Ford”
    },
    Can only imagine I’m missing headers?

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance…

    Easy fix!
    I manually entered a few, exported file and checked format against my import file.

    Quotes collection format is quote, not Quote and author not Author.

    Thanks to the author for this nifty plugin.

    For other people who’s valid JSON file won’t import in the plugin, make sure it is converted to UTF-8. This fixed it for me as I had French symbols in the JSON file.
    This can be easily done in Notepad++.
