[SOLVED] Company Directory - import not working

[michaywood]

Updated to the latest version of CMSMS yesterday (1.11.7) and updated CD to 1.19.2 and all CG dependencies are updated as well. However, when I go to import a CSV file, it gives me some errors, but only imports 1 record. Go back to view it in CD and it isn't showing up. But if I check the SQL database, I can see and delete the record from sg_module_compdir_companies in the database.

Also, before deleting the imported record from the SQL database, I would go back to CD and click on Export CSV , and even though I only see 1 company in CD, the export would have 2 companies (including the first one on the list of the CSV I attempted to import).

Any ideas? I would hate to have to delete and reinstall the module as there are a number of templates in the module I'm using. Thanks!

Make sure you have not set a filter to exclude displaying the imported entry.

If there are 2 rows in the database, but the admin is only showing 1 I would suspect that you had configured the filter in the admin interface somehow so that the new record gets excluded.

there was some saved name as "test" in the filter from a while ago. it now shows, thanks!

now I just have to figure out how only 1 record was imported. I took an export file, left the first 5 rows the same, then just put my companies in there in the same format:

Code: Select all

C|"company name" |"their fully address"|phone number||email addy|full website|Published|||||"My Customer"

All 6 companies in my test import CSV file are that exact format but only the first imported (gave errors saying line 2 already exists, line 3 already exists, etc...)

Also, the one that imported, the Status is set to:

Code: Select all

-- Missing Languagestring - module:CompanyDirectory string:--

so it isn't showing up in my company searches unless I go into it and change it to published and hit save.

any ideas?

solved. phone number needs to be in " "

I would have thought if any had " " they would all need it....
