We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!
We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.
You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.
While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.
We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.
Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!
We have to add a lot of courses/events, about 30-40 every two months. These events all have several dates and times, different trainers, different locations etc.
We would like to do this via xls or csv import. I understand that there is no possibility at the moment to use an Amelia-integrated import. I want to ask you about suggestions of a plugin like WP Sheet Editor or similar to be able to fill the respective database fields with the proper informations. We are also willing to hire a developer if needed but need infos about table structure, event-creation process etc.
Thanks,
Christian
Hello Christina,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Importing a large number of courses/events with various details like dates, times, trainers, and locations via CSV or XLS format is a common requirement. While it's technically feasible to do so directly into the WordPress database, it's indeed a complex task due to the relational database structure involved in managing events through plugins like Amelia.
Here's why it's challenging:
Given these complexities, it's generally not recommended to directly manipulate the database unless you fully understand the plugin's database structure and the potential consequences of your actions.
Instead, here are alternative approaches:
In summary, while direct database manipulation is possible, it's a complex and risky approach for managing event data in WordPress plugins like Amelia. Exploring alternative solutions, such as plugins with import functionality or custom development, is advisable to ensure data integrity and compatibility with your site.
Kind Regards,
Uros Jovanovic

Hi Uroš,
thanks for your explanaitons. I was aware of possible dependencies thats why I asked.
Do you have tipps for me for third-party tools or plugin(s) where you know that they work good together with Amelia?
Thanks
Christian
Hello Christian,
To be honest, we have not had any users who reported that they are using any third-party plugin to import events in Amelia.
Please take a look at the following article and let me know if that helps you or not.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Kind Regards,
