I'm wondering if is possible somehow to import products from a csv which is allocated in an url instead of from a file.
I need this this because the online shop I'm creating has a product list which is dependant from my main suplier and he has allocated his products in an csv URL.
Thanks in advance.
Yes, it is possible! I have made lot of import/feed scripts using CSV files. Its like XML. Take content, read it and add/update.

Is it possible export the data of advance custom fields saved in the pages of another wordpress installation?
basically, I would like to import this data into my new wp installation, since they have the same contents.
I found the option to export from acf, but it seems to export only the structure of custom fields but not the content.
is it possible? any suggestion?
thanks
The data can be exported from the wp_postmeta table in your database. If you're using multisite, the adjust your export for the corresponding table prefix, e.g. wp_2_postmeta.
Importing categories as a CSV file is OK in tiki-wiki, But how to import categorized articles to the system. Tiki supports media wiki and word press importing, While my data base has another format.
Is there any module for CSV upload/import?
Is there any flexible migration-like script to import articles?
In case that both of answers are NO, would you please give me a clue to write down the proper code to import articles directly to data base.
I went through understanding database, But I think accessing to database directly should be my last choice!
For custom import jobs, you can use Tiki's profiles. The profiles are a YAML-based format. While it is not the primary use for them, it might be the easiest way to perform what you want to do.
Normally, you need to place the profile in a repository to execute it, but there is a developer option to load content from a textarea. You can simply prepare your YAML definition and paste it in there.
Categorizing elements through the database could be harder than it seems as many tables are involved.
I recall seeing a direct import of a table in a Wikipedia HTML document directly into tableau. Tableau's website has a method that involves using Google doc HTML import function
=ImportHtml("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bank_failures_in_the_United_States_(2008%E2%80%93present)","table",2)
to first import the tables into a Google spreadsheet and later download the spreadsheet that can be linked to Tableau.
Is there any way to import a Wikipedia table, or anyt other HTML doc directly into Tableau?
Thanks
Tableau lets you paste data from any application that uses csv delimited text on the clipboard (not all apps do). Here's a knowledge based article on it.

Unfortunately, it didn't seem to work o nthe table you pointed out in your example, perhaps the HTML is too complex. But if you can somehow export the table as CSV, it can be loaded in Tableau.
Tableau Version 8 is due out soon, and has a couple different new APIs available that should help with connecting to data from various sources.
Does anyone have any documentation or info on the file structure of the contacts.edb file as it is used in Windows Live Mail? I can't seem to find any way to import file back into WLM (I'm told it HAS no way, and must be "backed up" via manual exports to CSV files).
Given the apparent lack of means to reimport a backed up EDB file, I figured that perhaps I could just write a program to read all the contacts out into vcards or something, and then import those. (I'm actually looking ultimately to get them into Outlook, and ditch WLM for this user, cuz I don't feel like dealing with these maintenance headaches).
Problem is that I cannot find anywhere any information on the file format/structure for WLM's EDB files.
Thanks in advance, any help GREATLY appreciated!
To anyone finding this in the future, THIS CAN BE DONE, without needing to code anything! Use this program - EseDbViewer - to export the file to a CSV file, and then you can import that where ever you want.
Note that you pretty much need the whole file structure containing the edb, not just the edb file.

I'm working on an app and need to add the ability to import CSV files into the app for processing. What are the options here? I've read posts about embedding http servers or fetching a CSV file from a web resource, but what is the easiest way to do this?
thanks
I've used NSData's dataWithContentsOfURL: just recently; it worked fine. Plus there's a convenient writeToFile:atomically: or writeToFile:options:error: message you can send to your data object.
