1. I have exported CSV file, but now I can't find it! Where is it saved?

CSV files are saved in downloads' folder, selected by your browser. Usually browsers create their own folder for downloads automatically, so, please, check your browser's settings and follow the download way. In most cases such folders are created on disk C, in user's section.

2. When I import the edited CSV file to FW Real Estate I get a message: “File has been processed, 0 imported, 0 updated, 0 errors”. What am I doing wrong?

FW Real Estate CSV files have a particular structure and each column corresponds to a particular field in the property form. In order to save this structure and to know how to fulfill the file in a right way we advise you to export CSV file from FW Real Estate Pro first, save CSV file on your computer and then open it with any CSV editor. You add new record, save the changes and then import file to FW Real Estate Pro.

PS. Don't try to open and edit CSV file with MS Excel, edit CSV file with simple CSV file editor. MS Excel may not save the structure of CSV file and none of the properties, added by you, will be imported to your FW Real Estate Pro.

3. I exported CSV file, opened it with CSV editor, but what should I do with it next?

Each column of the CSV file corresponds to a particular field in the property form. All the values you can see in the very first row: ID, Published, Ordering, Featured, etc. If you put the ID number, then you should save the order, if you miss this field, the component will put ID number itself, after file import. Numbers in the file, like “0” and “1”, correspond to “Yes” / “No” in the property form. “0”= “No”, “1”= “Yes”. While fulfilling such fields as: “Status name”, “Property type name”, “Category name” and similar, please, save the names of the items, given in your Dictionaries, otherwise the component won't recognize them.
