 * I recently upgraded to the new Simplemap, so I exported the data as per the instructions.
   When I went to re-import the CSV file, it didn’t work. I split the file up so
   that there were less than 100 records in each CSV file and it still didn’t work.
   After attempting to upload the file, it goes to the following page which says:
   “
   The first step is to confirm that we importing the data correctly. Please match
   the following sample data from your CSV to the correct data type by selecting
   an attributes form the downdown boxes.” But below that message there is nothing
   else – no dropdown boxes, no data. Any idea what the problem could be?

 * I’m having this same problem, along with a custom theme problem. Let me know 
   if you figure out a fix, and I’ll do the same. Thanks.

 * Hi Jon. I sent you an email asking if you could send me your cav file. Did you
   get that?

 * Everything works fine except import / export … you must be a Premium member to
   get that? It gives me a permissions error and changing folders to 777 didn’t 
   work
 * Thank you
