Hi,
please tell me a little bit more about your system. see first post.
The export script does not limit the memory size. Check if you have a .htaccess file that limit its.
And go to: Site-> System information -> PHP Information and check the value memory_limit
What does it says?

on and off topic... I want to follow this thread but is there any way to follow it without actually posting in it?
I am very interested in this software and hoping it will be available soon as I am getting close to needing something to import over 3000 items from a current version to my new install..

Hiya,
I have K2 Import 0.8 and Joomla 1.7. Am attempting to update extra fields for multiple k2 items at once using an import based on Item Title, although every time I run the import, despite seeing report of import process, all extra fields aren't importing and are then showing as default setting when i go back to check? Any ideas how I resolve this?

Hi,
I have been using your great tool succesfully, this is really a life saver for me.
I have just one small question: Can you tell me where and what I have to change in the code, so that it accepts a semi-colon separated .csv instead of a comma separated one? (It is not very difficult to replace before uploading, but since I have to update my site very often, I want to automate the process as much as possible.)
Thank you.

@ALL: sorry for the super late reply, but there is not RSS here, so its hard to follow up. I'm really sorry!
@Yiannis: Did you try to import less rows per loop?
@Aaron: I have the same problem, I even don't know how to follow when posting. an email at new posts or a RSS feed would be great
@Rachael McLoughlin: I'm happy you contacted me by email and we could sort this problem by overwriting the items based on ID. the ID based method is generally saver, but if anybody face the same problem please contact me I will try to track the bug.
@Spejbl Hurvinek search the models/k2import.php for fgetcsv() and change the comma to a semicolon - I think this should work.

After some time here comes a new version of the extension.
CSV Import / Export Tool for K2
I think we can call it beta status now!
Beside some bugfixes there is now the possibility to export just some categories. You can select the categories you like to export and the tool will just export them. This could be useful if you run into problems with the max_execution_time or max_memory.
Some more export adjustments will follow.
As always: If you bought the extension recently check if your download link still works. For every EUR you paid you have the possibility to download updates during the next 10days. so if you pay 3EUR you can access updates at least during the next 30days.

I have the latest .09_beta version installed. I setup all my categories and a few articles in K2. I then exported a csv file so that I would have some sample data to follow. I added some info to the csv file and then tried to import it.
Here is a screen shot of the settings I chose:
Here is the result:
In the generated source code, the second to last line is:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/downtown/public_html/administrator/components/com_k2import/views/associate/tmpl/default.php on line 32
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Additional info: Joomla 2.5.2 php v5.3.8 K2 v2.5.5
Thank you.

Hi Sue,
your hoster limits you to 30 seconds per script run. If you importing big data or images, or the server ist slow this could be to less. Try to import less rows per loop.
Set the setting: "Import rows per loop" to 1
Then the script will try to import row by row. I hope the 30 seconds will be fine then.

@Balgas: does it says just: 'Error' or something more useful?
Please check if the joomla / php versions and the php settings are the same on your local machine and on the server
Its always good to try to import less rows in a loop.
P.S. at the moments there seems to be a bug that just there in special PHP versions, so it would be very useful to know environments that are working and those that are not working

Hi,
I'm using the K2 import tool (last beta version) on joomla 2.5.4
I created a sample csv file (test.csv) attached here.
I believe it respects the format described in your manual (double quotes and comma separation). It's encoded in UTF-8.
When importing the file into my CMS, the K2 items are successfully created. Though, all the accentuated characters are removed...
Is that a bug from your extension or something wrong with my encoding?
Regards,
Thomas

Hi,
I think the file is not UTF8 encoded. When I open the file in a editor with UTF8 encoding it looks like the attachment.

I just uploaded the new version
0.9_beta2
It fixes a problem with some PHP versions. If you try to import items and nothing happens, this version could help you.
If you have problems with beta2 try to fall back to beta1 and report the problem. Best to contact me via email or twitter
If you already bought the tool once, try the link you got after payment and see if its still valid. For every EUR you pay, you can download updates for 10 days.
