Comment #1
danielb commentedWell let's start with the obvious..
Have you confirmed that the content type of the exported node exists on the site you are importing?
Have you tried anything other than CSV?
Have you tried importing the same CSV without feeds?
Can you provide an example of a CSV that won't import?

danielb commentedComment #3
Jarviss commentedHi Daniel, thank you for quick answer!
Content Type exist!
I noticed that Column Names are different when I download example File when inport block is attached to Node creation form!
So I exported 2 Nodes to CSV in Content Section.
When I Export Nodes to CSV and without changing it try to import it, I get this:
Node export was unable to recognize the format of the supplied code. No nodes imported.
I need CSV to edit nodes by rows, lines it is easy! So I need CSV.
When I did the same with .XML it imported nodes.
May you Explain How to Import CSV without Feeds?
Comment #4
Jarviss commentedI was thinking that it can be because of Charset But the idea that XML is imported means that it is not...
Comment #5
Jarviss commentedExapmle File, when I try to import it:
Node export was unable to recognize the format of the supplied code. No nodes imported.
Comment #6
danielb commentedI haven't thoroughly looked into this yet
Under "add content" or node/add/node_export
Comment #7
Jarviss commentedSo I was doing it like you said node/add/node_export. May you explain how to do import through feeds module, because I didn't find the other way to import CSV file!
Comment #8
danielb commentedThrough the Feeds import interface (I can never find it, but there's a link somewhere on a Feeds config page), it's a lot more difficult to setup though, I'm not a fan of it, but it gives more options. And if it doesn't work the normal way it probably won't work that way either.
Comment #9
danielb commentedMake sure Node Export CSV is enabled on the import site btw
Comment #10
Jarviss commentedDaniel thank you your questions made me think deeply, Feeds link is /import/node
I made csv file for feeds and what I get is update for nodes with ids in csv but when I change ids it doesn't create nodes and I think I miss some column that was not included to Feeds template file: I get Missing bundle property on entity of type node.
may you help me please comment if you know the answer:

About XML import through Node Export module: it can help when we export nodes from one site to another.
When it is used to create nodes from edited file (best csv edited in excel) for example XML it is tough to use because for term fields it exports id not the text value, so it is complicated to edit ids, and in csv it exports values. So XML doesn't help not to waste time, because I have to know every term id to make changes.
Comment #11
danielb commentedThe data in XML and CSV should be the same. I'm not going to comment any more on Feeds or XML as they are peripheral to this issue.
If you are editing a CSV file on a mac, that is likely the cause of the issues in the file. The format used for CSV files in Node export ensures readability in unix/mac/windows but only supports line endings created by windows software.
I am considering providing alternate options in a configurable DSV format, or something like that.
Comment #12
danielb commentedI have removed the CSV module from this project and replaced it with the DSV module which might allow you to configure it differently for your purposes.
Comment #13
Jarviss commentedDaniel Thank you for your answers, I solved it it was because of wrong guid values, As I think first import was processed bu drupal but with some other bugs, so when I removed this column at all it imported one node and than I just changed all the guid values to new and it worked.
Yes I tried on mac!
Thank you for DSV!
