Mapping rules import from CSV

Hi @jaak69

It sounds like you could use a PHP function or our API to translate the values.

Can you provide more details on where you’re importing the “countryID” data? Is it a custom field, a taxonomy, or something else? If you have some data examples that would be helpful as well.

Hi @jaak69

Thank you for the example. Unfortunately, there are currently no built-in options to import mapping rules like this, but you could do it with your own custom solution.

You should convert the mapping CSV to a PHP array (see str_getcsv), then write a PHP function for the mapping rules. Example:

// Map function
function my_map_field( $data ) {
    // Replace this array with the data from your CSV file
    $map = array(
            'Translate This' => 'To This New Value',
            'And this' => 'To this',
            'Add as many' => 'Rules',
            'As you need' => 'In this array',
        );

    return isset( $map[ $data ] ) ? $map[ $data ] : $data;
}

You can use that function in the import template as described here: http://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/developers/execute-php/.
