Hi,
I had about 110 categories and groups to import into EasySocial
I was able to work it out except that ...
The groups are all listed properly in the groups interface except when I edit it, it's all blank (no data). I checked the database and all the fields look fine except for the KEY field which I have no idea what that's for.
1) How can I fill our the KEY field properly for each entry
2) IS there another table to consider when importing ES categories ?
Thanks
Danny
Hi Danny,

Firstly, may I know do you try to import from which component?
Kindly find my response for your inquiries below:
1) How can I fill our the KEY field properly for each entry

This key (unique key) field was generate once user create a group which go through on
.../administrator/components/com_easysocial/models/groups.php LINE 2098

2) IS there another table to consider when importing ES categories ?

You need also importing social_fields tables so that the fields shows in the categories works correctly
