I just ran the updater (for the new version of WPDM), I’m able to import a few of the directories that I was unable to import last week. I will try them all again and report back.

Any updates?

Any ideas?

@Shaon – I would have to check, but I deleted everything because you said to clear it out. I had imported 2k+ files in the exact same way and a majority of the ones I checked were resulting in the file not found text file, whereas others did work. This leads me to believe that the bulk importer is a bit odd and doesn’t work every time, even when it shows the green import text.

I really can’t import 2K files and then manually check every single file to ensure the bulk importer did it’s job right, that would be pretty counter productive.

@Shaon – I am not sure what to make of this. I imported 2000+ files in the exact same way. All of these files have been in the same place long before we began using this plugin. I used the bulk importer for every single file and it created a post in the Downloads custom post type for each file – none of these posts were made manually.

How is it that some work and some (most) do not work? I don’t mind trying to reimport everything again but clearly there is a bug somewhere in the process because none of the files have been moved as you had suggested.

I’m having this same problem. My files are in folders on server, I went to bulk import, navigated to those folders, imported, import looked successful. However, it’s trying to download the files from the root directory it looks like, which is not where I had them and not where I want them (we have 2,000+ files and can’t have them in the root directory)

Is it OK to jump on this thread or should I make my own for the same issue?
