Hello everyone!

I'm trying to import a .CSV file into SCRAPED USERS into FollowLiker and having problems. I've looked at the file within EXCEL, TEXT EDITOR and structurally the file should import into FL with no issues however its not!

I've attached a .CSV file to this post containing 4 user I want to import into scraped users within FL. Can someone PLEEEEEEASE shed some light why I can't import these records into FL?

Thank you!!!

You can find the TEMP .CSV file at https://www.dropbox.com/s/evx46m4z6hlzt38/temp.csv?dl=0

I had the same problem. Are you editing the CSV on mac?

Solution that worked for me: Turn off the "Use smart quotes and dashes" option in System Preferences->Keyboard->Text

Hope this helps you.

I tried doing that but I wasn't able to import what I copied and pasted onto excel.csv into FL. Any help? I also tried TextEdit but that didn't have a csv option...please help!

I'm having the same issue but with share photo/video. It's dropping the slash (\) around the file names and causing everything to load in on one entry. Please help!
