Problems after import CSV

    After I import a csv file, fabrik creates a list and its elements, but when I try add a record, all fields are blocked, I type and nothing appears. So I must edit and save the element, after this the field back to normal.

    Is this a expected behavior or a bug ?

    Thanks,
    Marcel

    It's not the expected behaviour.
    Which element (type) did you have to save?
    Which exact Joomla and Fabrik version? Which Joomla template?

    "fields blocked": do you get any error messages in your browser console?

    Hi, thanks for reply.

    I am using protostar - Default Joomla template.
    joomla version 3.8.10 Fabrik version 3.8.1

    I will describe what I did:
    In the /administrator > fabrik > lists > Import CSV
    I imported a csv file with the content below.

    When I clicked in "View data" I got the attached screen: 1-after-import-booklist.png

    So I must click to edit the list and salve. And now appears the Add button: 2-after-save-list.png

    But when I went in the form page, I type and no letters is written: 3-typing-nothing-appears.png

    After I clicked to edit the element and save, the problem was solved for this field and I can fill it in the form:
    4-after-edit-element.png

    So, I must do it to all fields.

    I can provide more information if you need.
    Thanks,
    Marcel

    The issue with having to edit and save the list settings one time is known, I'll be fixing it soon.

    However, I can't replicate the issue you see with no data present.

    I pasted your test data into a file and imported it:

    https://www.screencast.com/t/1iogdAoLlIcl

    ... and it worked fine.

    Are you designating 'id' as the primary key when you import?

    I'm glad to hear that

    About the csv I got imported this small dataset, but I have problems with others files:

    Not found problem: cant find the csv file
    http://marcelferrante.com.br/fabrik/csverrors/notfound/
    example: 2139923.csv
    I got the message after map the elements: cantfindfile.png

    Multivalue problem
    http://marcelferrante.com.br/fabrik/csverrors/multivalue/
    example: justre1201e.csv

    To fix this problem, in Import csv page should be add a configuration bellow text delimiter to indicate:
    Multivalue delimiter: ;
    admin interface to add: add-field-import-csv.png

    Thanks,
    Marcel
