Couldn't get past the import screen

    I tried to import a CSV and it kept detecting it as an XML file. There was no option to specify that it was CSV.

    Game Over.

    Are you importing from a URL? The web server is probably sending file headers that incorrectly state the file is an XML or HTML file instead of a CSV.

    If you are importing from a URL, add ?type=csv to the end of the URL, or &type=csv to the end of the URL, so for example, your URL looks like this:

    http://example.com/url-to-your-csv-file.csv?type=csv

    Then WP All Import will treat it as a CSV.

    If you are importing a file on your local computer, make sure the file ends with .csv.

    I was not importing from an url. I was uploading a file.

    I found another solution.
