Can't import event in another site with same EE version

Hi guys,

I love your plugin. But unfortunately I can’t import my event from one site to another. I’ve really tried several things.

Both are working on the 4.3.2.p versions.

It gives these errors
The following errors have occurred:
The column titled ?”Event Espresso Export Meta Data” is invalid for importing. It must be be in the format of ‘Nice Name[model_field_name]’ in row ?”Event Espresso Export Meta Data”
No file seems to have been uploaded

I’ve made a video, you can see it here

The file I’ve exported and trying to import can be downloaded here

Hi Nancy,

It turns out that this is a bug we discovered within the last week. We’ll be releasing a fix in an upcoming release, but in the meantime if you can FTP in to your site and change one line of code you can apply the same fix.

It’s in core/db_classes/EE_CSV.class.php on line 185

change this:

if($data[0] == EE_CSV::metadata_header){

to this:

if( strpos( $data[0], EE_CSV::metadata_header ) !==FALSE ){

Thanks for you reply.

I still get some errors. Can you please help me get rid of those 🙂

CSV Data appears to be from a different database (http://www.nvvl.nl instead of http://www.sportdietetiek.nl), so we assume IDs in the CSV data DO NOT correspond to IDs in this database
We noticed you have imported data via CSV from http://www.nvvl.nl before. Because of this, IDs in your CSV have been mapped to their new IDs in http://www.sportdietetiek.nl

The following errors have occurred:

Hi Nancy,

Unfortunately we can not see any reason for those errors, as they all state ‘for an unknown reason’

Would it be possible for you to email us a copy of the CSV file? I’d like to take a look and see if I can see a cause there. If so could you send to support[at]eventespresso.com be sure to include a reference to this thread so know what is it for.
