I want to be able to export all events, make edits in csv format and then reimport them.
However, I lose all images on reimport.
Can you explain what the image IDs mean in the csv? Is it possible to replace them with the media library url (/content/...) so that the images are reimported?
Correct. So... if I manually create events, add images of each event using the wp media importer and export the CSV, I see a the image ID numbers as you say. But then if I delete all of the events in the calendar and reimport them using the same CSV and image IDs... it doesn't replace the images on the front end. Hope that makes sense
Here is workflow:
1. Create events with images
2. Export to csv. Make edits to csv (title's, descriptions etc.)
3. Import modified CSV to fresh calendar. I don't get any images on import

If I could chase this one... it's really important that I be able to bulk import and end up with functioning calendar including images.
Sorry for the late reply.
The csv epxport includes images ID numbers.
Are you importing the file on the same server?

Just a nudge on this please
I'll take a look now and check if I can reproduce this.

Okay this seems to be a bug caused by a typo... I don't know how I missed this.
Open file:
on line 495 there is this code:
switch (is_numeric($images)) {
replace $images to $image like this:
switch (is_numeric($image)) {
and that should fix it.
