CSV Import Frontend - add new data

[nadjak]

Hi,

I want to import new datas (rows) with an csv-file in the frontend.
In list - "Ver?ffentlichungen" - CSV I set the CSV-Import to the special usergroup.
In the frontend, this usergroup can see "Import from CSV". But if I choose my csv-file I get the error: "the fieds .... (here are my tablerownames listed) cannot be found in the database."
I also tried to import a csv-file without the rownames. The same result.

Please, can anybody help me, what it wrong?
Thank you.
NAdja

You need the correct element names in the first row and your CSV file must use the correct delimiters and encoding:
standard CSV is UTF8, "," delimiter
Excel format is using ";" delimiter, ISOxy encoding

Thank you.
I think I am too stupid.
Ich have in my first row the element names like the names in the database table.
In the other lines I have my values. Seperated with ; (I chanced it in the fabrik frontend import form to ; )
I opend my csv in notepad++ and change the encoding to UTF8.
But I still have the same problem.

What is the "Heading format" set to in your CSV settings (List settings, Publishing, CSV tab)?

If you are just using the "short" names (fields as the appear in the table), make sure you select that option for heading format.

Shoud my import csv look like my export?
I have the following settings in list settings - publishing - csv:
format of the rows: label of the element
csv-format: ecxel csv
witch elements: special chosen elements
including data: yes
include raw-data: no
file-encoding: utf-8

Your heading format on the import needs to match what you have set for that.
