Thread: Pre Sales

Pre Sales

Regarding the Vantage theme, I have one questions.

1. Can listings be created with a CSV file, and if so, is there a specific format? I hope to scrape data and have the process automated as much as possible. Does anyone have experience with this and have a winning combination of software/expertise? I'm thinking google maps, yahoo local, bing local as sources to scrape from.

Vantage has a built in importing functionality which allows you to import listings in .csv format, and you can find a little more detail on the importer page of the Vantage admin dashboard. The only thread I could locate in the forums about this topic is inaccessible to non-customers I'm afraid, but there is some discussion around whether or not it's a good idea to actually do such a thing. Products like "yellabot" have been mentioned. Thanks.
