Admin trackers / <select tracker> / export&import / import items, csv
the tracker has two fields:
1 A text
2 B auto-incrementing itemidthe csv has one column and two rows next to the header:
A
apple
bananaparameters:
as new items not checked (expecting that it will either replace items, or remove them all)result:
in admin trackers the number of items increases
the items view does not show any new items (even if the tiki cache is emptied) and it shows an unchanged number of items- Workaround
I just played around a little bit with import. It seems to me that you have to have a field/column B in your import file - no matter what data are in this column.
Best would be to do an export from the tracker and preserve the header line unchanged. Just replace the data columns you like to import with your data and delete the other data - but not their header entry!
This worked for me perfectly.- Importance
