Hi,

I have followed the documentation, but I am struggling to get the repeater field filled with the data.

This is my XML repeater items: https://snipboard.io/TkdnGF.jpg

This is the backend: https://snipboard.io/hgmZdJ.jpg

It creates two rows, but with empty fields. When I remove the repeater node (to test) it injects the data into the first row.

Something is not working here, or I am making a mistake.

With thanks,

Demian

From your screenshot can you try removing the /programContacts/contactData from the 2 fields (keep it in Repeater node tho).

Contactpersoon Naam: {/contactName}
Contactpersson E-mail: {/email}

The preview might show wrong, but try an import to see if this fixes it.

Yes, perfect. This was it.

One other question. Is there a way to add the repeater node, other than from the drop down list? Because the used  preview does not have the xml attribute what I'm looking for.

This is a request i have not seen before, but i can see it as a use case, i have changed the field to allow manual editing, and it will be in the next version released 2.6.4.

I have attched the latest development build, current change log is as follows:

= 2.6.4 =

* FIX - Importer CSV file settings page disable flag not changing when fields are updated.
* ADD - Imported Record tracking is moved from meta tables to own table.
* ADD - Allow custom text entry on repeater base node field.

Hi James,Could you help me to get the plugins(s) get up to date?We had all temp solutions from you, but currently I cannot access the plugin anymore ("Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.") and I think it's due to new releases. But I am not sure if you have added the improvements into the new releases.This is the situation in our backend: ScreenshotWith thanks,Demian

Hi Evelien,

Import WP Pro seems to be on the latest version 2.6.1, if you click on "update now" on import wp does this not update the plugin to the latest version 2.7.1?

And download and replace the acf addon from https://www.importwp.com/integrations/ 2.5.0

keeping the show all acf fields there as this is custom.
