vData - category import - category needs a title

My idea was to use the export file as template for the import.

Did you make any changes in the exported file? If not, Please share your backend & FTP login credentials via Contact us form, We'll look into it.

Hello,
i have only add a new entry in the file, all other are unchanged. For testing i have installed a brand new joomla site. I'll send you the login data via your contact form.

Here the test files from the new joomla site:


Thanks

Hello,
Which application are you using to Edit CSV file? You have incorrectly edited the file. You've enclosed all the columns within a single inverted commas ( "" ). Please correct that. You can use MS Excel or MAC's Number application to edit the CSV file.

Hi Daniel,
i use MS Excel 2016. I have removed the "" manuelly via the standard MS text editor. Now the import works, but when I edit the imported categories I get the error message "Error decoding JSON data: Syntax error". You can check this at the test site (category IDs 14 + 15).

Import File without ""

Hi,
Given CSV file is semi colon separated while it should be comma separated, Please keep it as it is as you exported. Though it works on semi colon as well, but you should set the semi colon as the delimiter in vData configuration as well. And JSON error is because params and metadata fields are not formatted properly, both fields are missing comma between JSON attributes. How did you get these two fields in this format?
