Action to perform to import the new data from CSV file into event

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
add_action('evocsv_save_event_custom_data','evocsv_function2', 10, 3); function evocsv_function2($eventID, $postdata, $field){ if($field == 'newfield' && isset( $postdata[$field]) ){ update_post_meta($eventID, '_field_var_name', $postdata[$field]); } } |
In the CSV file create a new column to match the field name eg. newfield – according to above example. And type in the values you want to pass.
The new field column would look like the above image when CSV file opended in Microsoft Excel. The CSV file column name must match the field name set in the above example. (newfield)
