    Hi,

    the plugin is designed to fetch JSON-data directly and not to import a Bulk-JSON-file. So the plugin could help using the API, but not the Bulk-way…

    Could you offer me a little more clarification? This is the json file I am attempting to import is https://www.mtgjson.com/json/AllCards.json then which is sorted by set using https://www.mtgjson.com/json/CompiledList.json both of these files mentioned above come in BZ2,GZ, XZ and zip format as well. The website with all the data I need is https://www.mtgjson.com/ as you could probably tell from the above URLS.

    Could you take a look and clarify/let me know how I got about importing this data? Would I be importing all the data from the first link(s) into my database and the fetch from my database to display that on my page? Or would I be requesting from http://www.mtgjson.com constantly because that will become taxing on my server, I believe it works the first way I mentioned with me importing the data and requesting from MY database after initial import.

    Does it look like I need an apicode to make this work? I think that they are offering the data without the need for one (ApiCode)? I spoke with one of their members at (mtgjson) on there discord and they didn’t mention I needed a apicode, if I do I can message that guy back and ask for one.

    As written: the plugin does not import data into the database.

    You can try
    [jsoncontentimporter urlgettimeout=240 url=https://www.mtgjson.com/json/AllCards.json debugode=10]test[/jsoncontentimporter]

    The pro version can create Custom Posts, this is a bit tricky.
    Switch fpr that to
