Yes I have done this - with the update, without the update ... still get the same error no matter what is in the file. It has not worked and still does not work. the first import had to be done by your team - nothing was explained to me how it was done, you just did it after weeks of me not being successful. I don't want to dump the 6000+ articles in order to try and see if a new import would work.
Here is what I need - I need all newer articles migrated into the newer system.
I need all existing articles updated as their content may be have been changed, etc.
Then I need the same done for the classifieds and events. This is so difficult to complete. I don't understand what I am doing wrong or why this can't just work out of the box.
Please help!
