 * Hello,
 * I have a problem importing exported data from the plugin.
 * What I did:
    – set up some some custom post types – export them through the Utilities
   > Export feature by selecting “All post types” in the menu – copy-paste the export
   data into a text file – re-initialize the plugin (purging the database) – paste
   the content of the text file into the textarea and click import
 * Whereas the popup mentions the import was successful, none of my custom types
   appear…
 * I have tried to import some “partial” exports (i.e. restricted to a single custom
   type) and that *seems* to work, however the full export does not. Too bad the
   full one is the only thing I have 🙁
 * If anybody has a solution or an idea, it will be more than welcome!
 * Regards,
    — Olivier

 * OK, answer to myself after a few lost hours: do NOT use simple quote in the name
   of a field, the export/import is buggy.
