We are only just at the\nbeginning of what we plan to offer in July 2012. If you are a developer or wish to hire a developer to work with\nthis plugin on your blog, you will be happy to know that it is easy to customize.<\/p>\n\n<p>Please seek support by creating a ticket here on the <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/plugin\/wordpress-csv-importer\/\">forum<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h4>Support<\/h4>\n\n<p>The plugin is supported by a dedicated team of developers who have worked on Wordpress for many years. It will\nalso get its own website soon, offering documentation and tutorial videos.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<p>Initial upload and activation as guided by Wordpress.org standard plugin installation.<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the <code>wordpress-csv-importer<\/code> folder to the <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n<li>Activate the Wordpress CSV Importer plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<li>Configure the plugin by going to the Settings screen<\/li>\n<li>Always backup your database before mass creating posts unless working on a test blog<\/li>\n<li>It is recommended you learn the plugin on a test blog first<\/li>\n<li>Always seek support if a CSV file does not appear to work, it is usually something minor<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<h4>When was Wordpress CSV Importer Beta released?<\/h4>\n\n<p>This plugins development begun at the end of 2011 and the Beta was released June 2012.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Is Wordpress CSV Importer well supported?<\/h4>\n\n<p>Yes, the plugin will be supported for many years and will soon have dedicated website.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Will you make changes to the plugin to suit my needs?<\/h4>\n\n<p>We note every request on a \"To Do\" list and we intend to keep working through the list\nevery week. If your needs are more urgent we can be hired. It is mainly Ryan Bayne who \nhandles the more intense requests when clients have deadlines, something we take very \nserious.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Will development continue for this plugin?<\/h4>\n\n<p>Our To Do list for Wordpress CSV Importer is already extensive. Ideas, requests and\nrequirements for data management are endless and we intend to meet demands.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Why does the plugin no longer have post creation?<\/h4>\n\n<p>The plugins old domain included \"wordpress\" which is not permitted as Wordpress is a \ntrademark. Wordpress CSV Importer (post creation edition) is a very new plugin. So\nwhile it is still new we decide to not just change our domain as required but to change\nthe plugins name also. Then we essentially edited Wordpress CSV Importer so that it was only\nleft with features related to data management. This may be problematic for some users at first\nbut in the long run it is far better. Branding is more obvious and it was always our plans to\nrelease more plugins anyway. Now we have a plugin that will focus on data management which is no\nbad thing at all.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=screenshots-->\n<ol class='screenshots'>\n\t<li>\n\t\t<img class='screenshot' src='screenshot-1.jpg' alt='wordpress-csv-importer screenshot 1' \/>\n\t\t<p>Start by creating a Data Import Job and import your CSV files data to a new database table created by Wordpress CSV Importer. We have the potential here to import to existing tables and more.<\/p>\n\t<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=changelog-->\n<h4>0.0.1<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Public Messages\n\n<ul>\n<li>Wordpress CSV Importer has been used to create CSV 2 POST, Wordpress CSV Importer will no longer create posts, it is strictly a data import plugin.
