 * Hello,
    I’m getting the error:
 * Error: post_content, – Mandatory fields. Please map the fields to proceed.
 * Not too sure how or why this is happening but I do have a warning at the top 
   of the admin screen:
 * Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/ccdruft/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/wp-ultimate-csv-importer/templates/menu.php on line 7

 * Kindly upgrade t latest version. And to create a post you should minimum map 
   post title, content and status. post_content is where the content of the post
   goes.

 * Is there any way to disable the requirement for post_content to be mapped? I 
   am trying to use the plugin to populate a custom post type which does not use
   the content block, so I have nothing to map it to.
 * Thanks!
 * **\*UPDATE\*** Nevermind, I added an extra header in my CSV with empty rows below
   it and mapped that to post_content and it went through perfectly. Thank you so
   much for this plugin, just saved me hours!!
