Problem uploading file to import ‘Specified file failed upload test.’

@hamlet237,

This messages comes from a WordPress core function we use to upload files.

It seems you have some permission problem and file cannot be uploaded.

Are you able to upload images for example? If yes, could you ask your hosting if they are blocking CSV file upload?

Hi there Javier.
Thank you for your response.

The process actually uploads the file, but then the error comes out.
In the back end it works fine, but in the front end, both when I inject the shortcode on a dashboard page or on a public installation page it fails.

The csv file is uploaded correctly and I can even see it inside my wordpress file panel (/wp-admin/upload.php).

But the plugin does not respond as it does from the back end and shows the error described:
Problem uploading file to import ‘Specified file failed upload test.’

I encounter the same issue I’m afraid. It works perfectly within the CMS but trying to upload the same file on the frontend with the shortcode produces the same error for me. Problem uploading file to import ‘Specified file failed upload test.’

Please update to the latest version, I have just fixed it.

Sorry for the delay fixing it but we were on our holidays, as soon as we have arrived, we have just fixed it.

If you have one minute and you like this plugin, please, review it or make a little donation to help us.

Thankyou Javier. It′s working perfect now.
Try this CSS suggestion in front-end tables. Very usefull in mobile screens:
.wrap table th,.wrap table td{width:200px!important;}.wrap{overflow-x:auto!important;}.wrap table{min-width:800px!important;}

Included! Thanks to you.

I seem to have the same issue now from the front end.

Error, we cannot find the file is the message I get after clicking on “Upload and Process”. Is there any setting I am missing?

Kindly help @carazo

Thanks in advance

@seed2launch,

Are you having this problem when using the “Frontend” uploader, isn’t it?

yes, using the shortcode [import-users-from-csv-with-meta].

but for some reason, all the CSV files are uploaded to the system actually. i got a message just now saying “delete old CSV files” but when i switched tabs, it disappeared.

i’ll share a screenshot when i see it the next time.

thank you very much for your prompt response @carazo

@seed2launch,

I have just checked it. It seems to work properly.

Maybe in your case after the import process is stopped and it cannot delete the file.

Check your error log.
