    I’m trying to migrate from another event calendar system and I have an issue where the event descriptions are very long, include special characters like ” and , and it appears that this confuses the CSV importer where it’s not able to differentiate between where a description ends and messes up the import. Any hints on how to fix a csv file that has such items so the aggregator doesn’t misread commas as a separator?

    Hey Corey,

    Thanks for using our plugins and for reaching out! Sorry about this issue with the CSV import. Indeed, sometimes importing CSVs can get difficult / buggy due to limitations of the file format.

    I might be able to help you with this or at least give you some tips. Could you share the file or the feed with me so I can check?

    Thanks and cheers,
    Andras

    Hey thanks András, I just woke up post surgery about an hour ago.
    May need to stay another day or two.

    Did my instructions above help explain the issue? I realized since I posted a reply twice you may have missed the first reply by accident.
