    Hello,

    I am very happy that finally i find this plugin that is very suitable for my website needs. Now i am trying to upload my data in csv format following the instructions:
    1.I have exported the csv format that the plugin requires.
    2. Adapted my data to that format and then uploaded, but what i get are the cells that are imported but they are empty in all the fields.

    Can anyone help me with any suggestion why this happens?

    Thanks in advance!

    It looks like there is a problem with the syntax of your CSV file. Of course, the header has to be included and correctly names all the fields included in the CSV.

    I don’t know how you are creating the CSV, but typically when you export a CSV from a spreadsheet app, you will need to make sure it is encoded as UTF-8 with “comma” as the separator and “double quote” as the enclosure. Then, when importing to the plugin, make sure the import parameters match that.

    Try it with a smaller number of records until you get it working.

    Yes it was a problem with the csv syntax, i solved it ??
    Thank you very much for the response.
    I was also seeing the Combo Multisearch at your page since i want at the frontend a multisearch, a search form that could search the files using for example: the name and the number of a record and than show the data to the person who searches?? Do you think this addon could help??

    Yes, you will need the add-on to do this.
