Undo Categories In ECI
I’m currently hired to customize Easy CSV Importer and work on my clients blog. When I was about to start creating posts and categories I realized the need to undo categories is long overdue. I’m not talking about mass deleting all categories in the blog, like the Nuke plugin does. I’m improving Easy CSV Importer so that users can install it on long running blog without worrying about damaging what is already there. Well really that is already the case, we just can’t undo categories or tags created by our projects, per project.
Per Project Category Undo
Consider users who create and complete a project. Then many weeks later they create a new project, but they never configured the categories correctly. The user wants to undo, their most recent categories, not the older ones created by the first project. That is what Easy CSV Importer now allows, much like the ability to Delete Project Posts, we can now Delete Project Categories.
Category Creation History
It is simple really. A new WordPress option is created, it will be named ecichyourfilename, that is ecich with your own CSV filename appended. The value for this option is simply a string of comma seperated category ID’s. ECI will loop through the ID’s deleting each category when requested. This feature is coming in version 6.3.9 which will be released in the next few days once my client is happy with the work done. If you have recently emailed me. I’m not ignoring you, changes will be made to the plugin where required in response to your emails. If I need further information you will eventually get a reply.
