OK, thanks. I’m not familiar with AMPPS, but version 1.1 should import remote/local file to post_thumbnail.

Please give me the debug information.

I did that, but I’m wondering. I don’t found anything about thumbnails or images (path) in the debug-output. I copied the output to HTML and pasted it on pastebin.

What I should mention is that I changed the DELIMETER to “|” and deleted the quotes for the text-wrapping.

post_thumbnail seems ignored by the importer. can you share raw csv data for me?

What do you mean with csv-raw-data? I wrote the head and one item line into the debug-information I pasted on pastebin.

But now I don’t think there was something wrong with that. Because I changed the environment and also that the debug information don’t saying something about post_thumbnails or images.

If I try a real import, it works ironically like a charm.

The current Local-Server configuration for this weekend is a windows 8.1 machine with the WT-NMP Server-Bundle (Nginx, php-cgi, mysql) on it.

I tried out to import the http-url variant and what…?
All Images got imported without a problem. (okay… i had to increase the buffer a little bit)

Now the question is… what is the difference, between these two setups. My problem is solved… but do you want a phpinfo or something other? The problem seems server-configuration-releated.

I can’t understand why. The weirdest thing is post_thumbnail is ignored in debug information. The debugging add-on is hooked before importing. If the problem is server side, like deference of file system of OS or firewall of your network, post_thumbnail should appear in debug information.

Hello!

Any sample on how to use path locally?
it seems that importer cannot fetch my local image

@kukocrunch07: Which OS? To fetch them locally, I don’t know. (you already saw/read my issue)

My solution of this was to change the server-environment. After I realized that it works with nginx (os: win8.1) I decided to use a remote-server for this. Setuped as a test-server with nginx and I got the importer to import my files.

@takuro Hishikawa: Yeah, I know. That was the strangest thing of all. I don’t got (also on the machines where it worked) information about post_thumbnail in the debug. But I think as you say, It can’t be your plugin or debug-extension. More I think it was a part of configuration of the operating system, server-environment or firewall.

What exactly… I dunno. I wished I would have the time to investigate, but this happened on my workspace and I don’t think my boss would like it, when I investigating bugs there, which already got solved.

Sorry I didn’t clarify that I use Windows 7 as my OS.

I don’t use windows, but this article may help you.

Hi!
I got the same problem (post_thumbnail seems to be ignored in the import process).

I tryed to import only 1 row to be sure with no success.

“post_type”,”post_status”,”post_thumbnail”,”post_title”,”field_555b5160b5251″,”field_555b517cb5252″[……]

Use full path like https://www.example.com/path/to/your_image.jpg

Thanks for your answer.
I did as you asked with no luck. Then I tried to move the thumbnail column somewhere else and even installed your add-in for debug. With the same result : the thumbnail column seems to be ignored by the import script.

How “ignored” ? Could you share your csv again?
