    In dire need of some help here. Has anyone had any luck pulling this off or know a way of modifying the addon to allow this to happen? I have tried just about everything I can think of to get this to work but I just cannot seem to update an entry’s multi-select field with values from my import csv file.

    I have tried encapsulating the value with quotes and separating them with “|” or “,” and it just wont feed that field with any data.

    Andrew from brandnewbox mentions that it should work if we separate the values with “|” but maybe the newest EE just cant cope with it.

    Here is my post over at his support forum but support over there seems non-existent these days.

    I have read other posts where you say that datagrab will handle importing into a multi-select field if my csv value is separated by “|”. (i.e. “105|310”)

    I have EE 2.8 and datagrab 1.8 but I cannot get this to work.

    My multi-select field is a Pixel&Tonic; Field Pack type.

    Is this currently broken?

    Do I need quotes around the value? What syntax do I need?

    Attached is my csv.

    Thanks in advance.
