Hello,

-- CSV import is powerful but please note it is meant for experienced users or for Developers

-- About importing images, this is not implemented , nor it has not been tested.
It will probably be supported in a near future version.
But you can try to do it manually with current FLEXIcontent version, see this FAQ article

-- An easy and more user-friendly tool, that also supports export and importing new images and new files and has more options (and a few options less), from a 3rd party Developer is FLEXIimport by NetAssoPro (i say 3rd party despite having contributed some code to FC)

-- About the selectmultiple field
if you field elements are:
value1::1990%% value2::2000%% value3::2010%%
then the column values must look like:
value1%%value3%%value7

Regards

Thank you i found my error with checkbox.
i configured value1::1990%% value2::2000%% value3::2010%%

tried to import in csv i wrote
value01::1990%% value02::2000%% value03::2010%%

so differnece between value01/value1

the image import:
i use imagename.jpg
which exists in upload and medias-folder(i can choose in item-edit-dropdown-list of images of imagefield)

when import i get error :
couldnt delete m,
couldnt delete f,
...

the images arent selected.

what can be the reason for that error?

Hello,

-- the CSV import already has many features and configuration options because we placed a lot of time in it and it is FREE !!! (think that some other components offers 10% of features that FLEXIcontent has in their FREE version, or other other lacks our FREE highly editable and configurable built-in gallery facility) , i know that to people individual features can be very important but:

-- currently support for importing image is not tested as you can see the FAQ article, to find what is happening would mean to give good time into it now :!: and we are in a hurry to release v2.0.2 (with high performance for large sites and some bug fixes)

-- putting more work to it (in regards to supporting images is planed for a later version, maybe v2.0.3 that would mean you waiting a month for it)

From what i see the flexIMPORT (commercial tool by netassopro developer, see the FAQ article) supports importing images (although developer has give it to me , i did not have chance to see it myself)

Regards

in 2014 image import for image field folder mode: fe field25
copy image files to /tmp without subfolders

in CSV file create column image field:field25
insert the names of images:
imagename.jpg%%
imagename.jpg2%%
imagename.jpg3 (last one no%%)

all images imported,

if you want to import image tiles,etc too look at the import screen how to delimit ...

For structuring and preparing data for csv and import more easely

i recommend tools like:
karens directory printer ...write file info to txt(imagename.jpg)
bulkrenameutility ..rename pictures and folders
