    Hey ganjou!

    No, Enfold uses a xml file for demo data. The demo data can be found in: wp-content/themes/enfold/includes/admin/dummy.xml if you want to edit it. Personally I recommend to use a database export tool like: WP MigrateDB or WP MigrateDB PRO if you want to transfer the demo content to another server.

    Best regards,
    Peter

    Hi Dude,

    Thanks for your answer.

    This is what I would like to do.

    I would like to creat my own file content because I have to create 1 000 portfolios ! The content of these portfolios is in a non wordpress database and as you imagine I don’t want to create manually each item as there are 1 000 of them… So I thought may be there is a way through a csv > xml file to import more quickly this big content.

    What do you think ?

    Hey!

    You can try a plugin like: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-ultimate-csv-importer/ – Enfolds import script is not as flexible as this plugin because we just use it to import our sample/demo data.

    Cheers!

    Hi!

    If you are grabbing data from another database then I believe what Peter means with that plugin is that it allows you to re-map the previous data (as a csv file) to WordPress data values.

    To create your own xml file you can use the WordPress import/export tool.

    Best regards,
    Devin
