Thread: geocoding on csv import problem

geocoding on csv import problem

Hello,

When mass importing listings from a CSV file, Vantage picks up the correct coordinates (Longitude, Latitude) but uses a comma (,) instead of a period (.) as decimal separator (I see that when checking the listings individually).
This creates a problem when displaying the listings as the map doesn't show up; it looks like GoogleMap is looking for a period as decimal separator. When I tediously change the separator by hand on each individual listing, everything works correctly.

I'm using the French localization of WP, and France uses the comma as a decimal separator, so this is probably the source of the problem. I'm wondering if there is a workaround (even if this means just changing a setting for a short time during the import process).

Thank you for any assistance.
