CSV Import / Export 3.0.4 – WordPress Plugin
CSV Import / Export powers quick bulk updates by importing directory items, categories, and locations from CSV, and exporting to CSV for easy edits in Excel or Numbers. Save time with auto-generated sample CSV for your current theme and seamless WordPress plugin integration. Ideal for fast, accurate data management with a user-friendly workflow.
Description
CSV Import / Export is a WordPress plugin designed for directory-based websites that need fast, reliable bulk data management. It helps you move large sets of directory items, item categories, and locations between your site and a CSV file.
Instead of updating entries one by one, you can import structured CSV data into your directory theme, then fine-tune the same data locally in Microsoft Excel or Apple Numbers. The workflow is built for accuracy and speed, especially when content lists grow or change often.
The plugin also auto-generates a sample CSV file based on your current theme, making it easier to format data correctly before you run an import.
