trilogenT	Hi, Thanks for the documentation. I have been able to import a page and translation is working as expected. The remaining issue is we are using elemetor to create the structure and other elements of the page. During the importation under custom fields, ":" are not allowed in the field values. I have to delete 2 field containing ":" before I can complete the importation. I was getting this error (Custom field value template is invalid: Unexpected symbol ':' ). One of the fields I have to delete contains data about elementor and due to that after importing the page, it is missing elementor elements. The page structure does not look like the original page. I have attached screen shots of the error message and the fields I have to delete. Can you advice a way to fix this issue

If you want to import the custom field value, please type the field name in the "Name" column, drag the field name from the data table and drop it to the "Value" column. I see you are adding the field value directly to "Value" column, which isn't correct behavior. Please check the screenshot attached. Look forward to your reply. Thanks
