I have joomla 3.4.8, latest fabrik 3.4.3

when I import the csv , the headers are imported correctly , but it skips the 1st column of data so the date and the headers don't match any more .

also if I try to import without primary key I get an error msg

on my older setup of fabrik 3.3.4 I do not have this issue.

any idea

thanks
Manuel
 
I've asked Rob to take a look, as he was working on that code recently. He's on his way back from Vietnam, should be back at work in the next day or two.

hi I just got back from holiday this afternoon> I'll take a look now at the issue
 
hi could you give me some more info to work on here please:

* Attach a sample of the csv file you are trying to import
* Are you trying to import from the front end or in the administration section
* What csv import options do you have set up ?
 
hmm perhaps this is in the admin when you want to create a new list via a csv import?
 
Dear Rob

I found a small problem ,

If I update the csv file and I want to update the list in Fabrik nothing is overwritten ( updated ) .

I had Fabrik create a PK that is not present in the csv, could that be the reason ?

To have a proper import and update, should I keep the PK in the csv ?

Best Regards
Manuel

If you want to override you must have the PK in the CSV, otherwise how would you know which records must be updated?
