Import from zip file with CSV files - mapping to table ids about tablepress

Hi @Principia4834,

thanks for your work on this! I'll take a look as soon as possible, and I'll be more than happy to integrate this into TablePress directly if everything works fine!

Best wishes,
Tobias

Hi @Principia4834,

I added such a feature (after some modifications to not break existing behavior) in commit 0074297.
Would be great if you could test this some more!

Best wishes,

Hi @Principia4834,

to add on, I added one more modification, in commit 8983b6e: As the table name is not unique, replacing of the table will only be done, if there was exactly one match of table name and file name. Otherwise (no matching table or more than one match), the file will be imported as a new table. This way, no possibly "wrong" tables will be replaced accidentally.

Regards,
Tobias

Thanks for the update. I have tested the new controller-admin.php on my Wordpress 5.6.2 site as follows:

1. Import zip file with three files (book1.csv, book2,csv, book3.csv), option "Add as new table" - pass, new tables created
2. Import zip file with three files (as above with extra line added to each), option "Replace existing table" - pass, existing tables updated
3. Copy the table named book3.csv and edit the name so there are two identically named tables with different IDs. Import zip file with three files (as above with extra line added to each), option "Replace existing table" - pass, book1.csv and book2.csv are updated and new book3.csv table is created so preserving existing tables

So it all looks good to me.
Best wishes

Hi @Principia4834,

great! Thanks for testing this! This confirms my tests, so that we can ship this, I think :-)

Best wishes,
