I have been importing data records as posts with custom meta data directly into Wordpress via the CSV Importer plugin. It works okay, however, there are some issues with it.
Issues:
1) It takes countless hours to import massive amounts of records (I have spent dozens of hours importing about 5,000 records, and still have about 150,000 records to go).
2) The plugin isn't supported anymore, so I have no idea of it's stability.
My hope is that I can find a way to import these records that are in csv format into phpmyadmin directly.
Here is what the posts contain...
Post title Post content plus about 8 custom fields (which I make visible through some script that I add to the single-post.php file for my theme).
So....does anyone know how to import these posts through phpmyadmin, so that I don't have to rely on a plugin to pull them into wordpress, which then inputs them into my mysql database and back into wordpress?
I'd rather just import them directly into phpmyadmin which would shoot them directly into mysql, which I would think is the more intelligent and effective way to do things anyhow.
Thanks in advance for anyone's input on this. I am much appreciative.
