ECP 3.3 – CSV Importer – Multi-Day All-Day events not importing

[pvamu]

Hi Guys,
I am trying to Import events using the CSV Importer with ECP 3.3. I have both single day and multi-day events.

1. For all events, it assigns the start date and time in the CSV to both Start and End Date & Time in the ECP Event and ignores the End Date and Time in the CSV.
2. For Multi-day events, it shows the event to be only for one day (teh starting day) and does not correctly assign the end date and time.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hassan Abbasi.

Howdy Hassan Abbasi,

I am sorry it has taken us a bit to get back to you on this. Would it be possible for you to send us a copy of the csv file so I can test it and see what is happening? If you don’t mind uploading the file somewhere and linking to it here. If you prefer for the file to not be made public, use the Private Reply checkbox below to hide it from others.

Thank you!

Thank you for sending the file. After further investigation I am able to reproduce this as well with hand crafted CSV files. This is a bug.

The only work around at the moment would be to manually adjust these events after import. I am notifying our devs of the bug and I am sure this will then get fixed in an upcoming release.

Thanks for reporting this. I am sorry it is causing you an inconvenience.

OK. I’ll wait for the response from your devs.
Thanks a lot.

For sure! In the interest of full disclosure, this was not found in time for the code freeze on our very next release. But, now that the devs are aware they will prioritize it and definitely include it one of the other upcoming releases. Thanks again for pointing this out.
