Migrating data from old plugin into yours

  • Hi I am using the simple pins plugin and unfortunately it has no search by zip functionality so I’d like to migrate my current data into your plugin as I have hundreds of listings. Is this possible?

    Does the plugin you’re using now have an export option? If so, then you can do that, and then use one of the many CSV import plugins to move the data.

    so they export it with all coordinate data only into a text file for their plugin..but if I have the csv of what the staff made without coordinates, but with addresses/zips would that still suffice?

    If you don’t have the coordinates but only the address details, then that could work with the CSV Manager add-on. This will geocode the data on import.

    If the locations are in the US, then you can also try to use a third-party geocoding service like this, and then use another CSV import plugin that import the data.
