nikolaosX-3	I need to import posts (custom post type) using "WP All Import" and "WPML Export and Import" plug-in. I watched some easy-to-follow tutorials using the "WPML All Import" add-on. However, when I try to download it from your website, it asks to download the newer "WPML Export and Import", which requires a specific format of tables before import. I have 1000 posts from a client and it is impossible to change the format now. My final goal is to be able to import the categories (custom taxonomy) first, as shown in most tutorials, and the posts (custom post type) in the default (Greek) language, and then in English. Is it possible with "WPML Export and Import"? If not, is there a way to download the older "WPML All Import" add-on? Any guidance with any plug-in in order to achieve my goal will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
