Importer: How to import description for venues & organizers?

[Abby]

I want to use the importer to batch upload a bunch of organizers and venues. However there doesn’t seem to be a way in the CSV to specify description/content for either. How can I do this?

Also – is there any way for me to reference an image’s name or ID (that exists in my Media Library) in the .csv files for organizer, event and venue?

Thanks!
Abby

Hi Abby.

We have a help article about importing. Following are all the available import fields currently available:

Venues import

 

Organizers import

Events import

 

Note that a “Description” field isn’t available for Organizers or Venues imports.

However, I agree the “Description” field should exist for importing Venues and Organizers (like it does for Events).

I’ve ticketed this as a to-do for our developers, although there are no guarantees if/when it’ll be completed. (I also suggested adding other missing fields too.)

Sorry this isn’t currently part of the features.

Thanks for your understanding.

Hello,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We weren’t able to add the new CSV Importer fields as part of our upcoming release (4.1). However, please know that this is still on our radar and is ticketed within our system to be addressed in a future release. We’ll do our best to keep you posted. Thank you for your patience while we improve and expand our plugins.

Best,
Leah
