Bulk Fields Management or Fields Export/Import

AdsManager needs a bulk fields management or export/import feature.

I had to load geo fields for a country with over 1000 provinces and districts. In order to save time I used phpMyAdmin database export/import and edited in cvs spreadsheet (and also tried doing it with .sql text editor).
The problem was whenever I re-uploaded the edited fields through phpMy Admin AdsManager did not recognize them until I had individually re-saved all of them.

When I had to make further changes and re-uploaded the tables AdsManager again did not recognize the fields until they were all again re-saved.

What made matters even worse was that when you try to use a language string for the field title AdsManager translates it in the fields editing area so you actually not only have to re-save every single field, but you also have to re-set the language string in the title field for EVERY field, because otherwise the translation (and not the language string) gets saved and it changes a multilingual site (because now the title is set and no longer pulled from the language file).

There does not appear to be a time-saving option to mass modify or export/import large numbers of fields without having to go back into each separate field and re-save, and without destroying a multilingual setup. This is extremely frustrating.

I am sure I am not the only one who experienced this problem.

Having an option to mass modify or to export/import fields without having to re-save every one of them again each time and without interfering with the language strings would be quite a necessary and helpful feature.

Thank you.

Hello,

You tried to insert fields by using phpmyadmin ?
There is more than one table to insert your datas into, I think that was the problem you had.

Also, we do custom dev for our customer, so if you need one, you can send an email with all the details at support @ juloa.com (remove the spaces) and we will give you a price depending of the importance of the project.

Best regards.

Yes, multiple tables could be the problem...

As I said:
It would be nice to have a mass management or export/import feature for fields and categories in the AdsManager Gold version (like for example in most e-commerce scripts have such features).

So please consider it as a future feature/development request?

Thank you.
