    Hi,

    Is there any way to import a .json with this plugin?

    I’m developing a new WordPress site and trying to import part of a drupal database. I have exported a .json file from the Drupal database (via phpmyadmin) and have tried to import it with this plugin but it shows this error message:

    Please correct the following errors:
    The uploaded file is not in the correct format.

    It also shows a text informing that the file should be in .cctm.json.

    So you can only import json files created with your plugin (.cctm.json), right? 🙁

    Is there any way to do what I have explained with the Custom Content Type Manager plugin?

    Thanks.

    The CCTM supports saving / downloading / uploading of JSON files that it uses to store its definitions — it’s a very specific format for a very specific purpose. Virtually *anything* can be saved as a JSON file, so it sounds like you’re trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. That’s like calling the Gettysburg address and the source code for Linux the same thing because they are both saved as a .txt file.

    Very graphic explanation 😉

    Thanks for your help.
