  • M: Did you consider scheduling posts using csv_post_date column?

    ellie.roepken: According to the WordPress Codex, you are supposed to register you custom post type, hence the post_type_exists() check.

    Well… I tried the ellie.roepken hack.
    The CSV-Importer does not recognizing the categories or tags of my Custom post type. The CSV-Importer only sees the categories of Post post_type.
    If the uploaded category already exists in a Custom post type, CSV-Importer creates a child category, in the Post post_type, using the uploaded category data and using the same term_id number. (https://www.xxxxxxx.xxx/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=category&tag_ID=88&post_type=post)
    If the uploaded category does not exist at all, it sets up a new child category, within the Post post_type, with a new term_id, using the uploaded category name. (https://www.xxxxxxx.xxx/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=category&tag_ID=153&post_type=post)
    If you are using a Post post_type, the CSV-Importer does recognizes existing tags, or if the tag name does not exist, creates a new tag with a new term_id.
    The good news is the CSV-Importer does recognize the csv_post_title,csv_post_post,csv_post_type,csv_post_excerpt,csv_post_date and the custom fields and places that data in the Custom post_type directory appropriately. However, tags are not recognized and only created if using Post post_type.
    No Term Relationships are established within the term_relationships data base table. (term_taxonomy_id was not associated with an object_id) either categories or tags, unless using Post post_type.

    Basically, I want the CSV-Importer to recognize my existing Categories and Tags within my Custom Post Type.
