Hi,
thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
It only loads the file to get its contents (and creates a table from that). The file itself will not be touched and will still be in the place where it was.

so basically it only read the file and delete it.
will not save a copy in the website folder, correct?
I do not want anyone to have access to the csv.
Hi,
no, TablePress will not delete the file! If you import the table from a CSV file via URL, that will still be accessible. If you import the table from a CSV on a local server path, the file will still be there.

I’m importing the CSV file from my local computer. I just need to make sure the “file upload” will not save my CSV on to the web. If the CSV saves a copy on the web after importing, what’s the directory in the WordPress website I can delete this uploaded CSV file?
Hi,
ah, sorry for the confusion, that’s what you mean. When uploading from a computer, the file will only be stored in a temporary directory on the server, which is not accessible from the web. TablePress will delete it from there after the import.

Tobias
Hi,
no problem, you are very welcome! 🙂 Good to hear that this helped!
Best wishes,
Tobias
P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
