Mapping parent entries and rich text #142

Closed brianpaddling closed 7 years ago

brianpaddling commented 7 years ago

I am trying to import record entries and trying to use the CraftID instead of the field title but not having success. How do I import with the CraftID?

Also, how do I select Rich Text as the type of data being imported? image

I can send full data samples and give access to our dev server if needed. At this point, I would prefer to just pay someone to import the data that understands it rather than continue trying to figure it out.

Hi Brian,

What do you mean by the CraftID? Is that just the ID of the entry? You can select that as import field. Also, it looks like Content is a matrix field, isn't it? If so, is this something custom you wrote? Import doesn't support Matrix out-of-the-box.

Yes, it is the ID of that entry. I tried using it and it only worked for one entry and failed on the rest.

I believe it is a matrix field so that could be the issue.

I am not a developer, I am the owner of the site that is being developed. I honestly have no business working at this level but trying to get the project completed as our developer is swamped with other parts of the project. I would much prefer to hand you two different CSV files and have the import completed. Let me know if that is an option.
