Contacts and Stories are imported into Makerble using csv files.

Types of content

The image below shows a Contact Profile page.

  • the red box shows content that is created by importing a Contact

  • the purple box shows content that is created by importing a Story with a tagged contact (where in this case, the tagged contact is Abigail Holmes - which is why the stories appear on her Timeline)

CSV file formatting requirements

  • Remove any paragraph breaks from the cells in the spreadsheet

  • Remove all empty columns from the spreadsheet. (It is fine for a column to have a header - i.e. title but to not have any information below that; but there cannot be any columns that are completely empty)

  • Remove all empty rows from the spreadsheet

  • Check that the spreadsheet contains no more than 800 rows - if it does, create multiple spreadsheets as they will be imported separately
