Re: Import/Export from CSV Unfortunately, I don't think we'll be able to reliably add Category. The issue is that all categories have an underlying unique # (you can catch a glimpse of this if you publish a calendar with only particular categories) In your CSV file, you would have no way of knowing all the unique category IDs.. you'd want to use a name. And we can assume people will make mistakes entering that name. I suppose we could push any mistakes to the General category, but we just don't like building something that we know will be error prone in the end. Colors is a similar problem.. Are people going to enter valid HTML hex codes int he CSV? We have no way to tell. And if we default bad input to a certain color, the member may never know b/c if may be on a date in the future. We'll think about it.. we could probably create an error report for the user, but it all feels a little un-user friendly. ---------------------------------------- Marc Higgins Support Associate, localendar.com Follow us on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/localendar_news |
