>>>In this plugin, I give the access file name and then choose the category where I want all my data to import to. Then what are the next few questions in this plugin? <<<
No. You would need to export your data into a tab, comma (,), or pipe (|) delimited file, such as;
Title|URL|Description|Category
You would enter your first piece of data (just the top line), into the 'sample' box, and then choose your file delmiter (in the above case, 'pipe').
You are then shown a page with a list of the field names that your data can be assigned too, so you can basically pick-and-mix the order that your data is passed into the plugin with. This is one of the most powerful features, as it doesn't matter about the order your data is in.
The categories are then made in the next step, and after that, the data you submited, is grabbed from the .txt file that is written to your server, and then tries to add each of those links. Thats pretty much it :)
>>>Suppose I have 20 different fields in my Access file, but Links table only have pre-defined 15 fields, how do I match up all my access data and get them into the proper fields in the right table? <<<
You can choose which fields you want to import (leave the drop-down blank if you don't want to import a particular column from your import data).
>>>How do you manage this? Should I change the Links tables first or my access file so that they match each other before I can use this plugin? <<<
You don't need to change anything in your database for this plugin to work.
>>>Do you have trial period for this plugin? <<<
Unfortunatly not. After a few recent incidents, I don't really have enough faith in peoples 'good will' to be able to offer a free trial of it, sorry.
