Unable to update existing posts | WordPress.org

I have the WP All Import Plugin along with the Yoast WordPress SEO Add-On. I am trying to update the focus keyword for EXISTING posts on the site. I have tried a variety of ways of importing the data to no avail. It will work when I click on “create new posts form records newly present in your file” – but doesn’t match up to the existing post that I need it to match to.

Thank you!

Hey @amberly66

To update existing posts that your import didn’t previously create, you’ll need to use an “Existing Items” import as described here: http://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/recurring/manual-record-matching/. Just make sure that you use the “Choose which data to update” option on step 4 and *only* update the focus keyword custom field: https://d.pr/i/oNk6jv.
