Not nearly enough information given to get catablog to work correctly

    So far, I’ve had to install a php safemode, change folder permissions on every folder from wp-content down through the plugin, and edit and re-edit my csv files over 20 times, because the plugin will only import the first 15 items before failing.

    Great plugin, but the documentation is seriously lacking in detail.

    Have you looked at the official blog, there is quite a bit of documentation there. http://catablog.illproductions.com/

    Also I am unsure why you have had so many problems on your web server with CataBlog. The permissions should be set automatically if you have your web server properly configured.

    My guess about the import only doing 15 items at a time is because creating each catalog item takes a lot of database hits and your server might be underpowered for such an operation. This is due to WordPress and its code and performance, not CataBlog.

    Have you tried running the CSV import script on a local server (WAMP, XAMP, MAMP)?

    What errors, if any, are reported when the import fails? Can you turn on PHP error reporting on your server if it is off?

    Are you sure there are no syntax errors in your CSV file? like absolutely triple checked everything sure.

    Thanks again for your interest in CataBlog and have a wonderful day.
