So can you provide a time frame or suggest a hack (e.g load via phpmyadmin)?

Hi Nomads,

Your request is reported here http://pm.joomlart.com/browse/JAJB-562 and we are considering to support this.

Yep your on the right track here. Insert one or two locations via the component. Then see which table they are being inserted into on the DB. Export that table as CSV file to Excel. Write them all out in excel and then import again into DB.

BACKUP DATABASE FIRST!!!!!

Hi Shannon,

We are planning to deploy this feature for you. Kindly confirm me that which file type do you want to import Location data?

Currently, we are considering to import Location and Category from xml file. It would be best to hear your opinions.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Regards,
