The CSV Import Extension has received a significant update. The most notable improvements are:
- Much improved documentation on the plugin’s admin pages.
- More efficient importing requiring fewer database queries which means importing happens a little quicker. Further improvements to import efficiencies will be gained when Connections 0.8 is released.
- Imports now happen in small batches rather than all at once for more reliable imports when importing large CSV files. During testing a CSV file with more than 10,000 records on a shared webhost with very limited server resources. In all tests it imported reliably.
- Now fully supports importing data to all core fields within Connections, except photos and images.
