Hi there,

 

I have the following fields, which I have to fill via .csv import. Either I have made a mistake or this type of function is not intended for the import.

I have created the following in ACF:
CPT = Quotes
Taxonomy 1 = Famous authors
Taxonomy 2 = Categories
Taxonomy 3 = Submitter (creator of a post)

I have created the following fields:

1 group with the following content, which is displayed in the CPT
– Link taxonomy 1
– Link taxonomy 2
– Link taxonomy 3

2 Group with the following content, which is displayed for taxonomy 1
– Text field

(Reason is – For the authors I need further information related to them -> Example ‘Albert Ellis – (1913-2007) American psychologist’. I had previously used the description field, which is already available from WordPress for categories/taxonomies – but unfortunately this cannot be selected during import.

Data import:
I can only link the data fields to the fields in group 1, the text field in group 2 is not displayed. I have already typed in the field name, but unfortunately nothing is imported into this field.

Have I done something wrong here or, as mentioned above, am I making a mistake?

 

Best regards,

Steve

Ok, after hours I found it - I have to setup another importer for "terms" only. First import all Terms, second import everything post related.

Sorry for this thicket - maybe it will be helpful for someone else at some point.

 

All the best,

Steve
