WP Ultimate CSV Importer has been a go-to tool for WordPress users around the world who need reliable import and export functionality. Each major release comes with a theme. Some release focus on performance, some on UI, and some on integrations. WP Ultimate CSV Importer 8.11 is special because it combines all three: stronger compatibility, smoother workflows, and practical improvements that you’ll notice in your everyday website operations.
If you’re running a WooCommerce store, maintaining a multilingual website, managing event listings, or handling full-site migrations, this update is built for you.
With enhanced integrations like The Events Calendar, Slim SEO, and Dropbox file upload, a series of fixes, and better multilingual handling, version 8.11 is designed to streamline workflows for website owners, agencies, and developers.
Let’s explore what’s new.
Events Calendar Import & Export Support
Website owners who use The Events Calendar often struggle with manual updates. When you’re managing 20–100+ events, updating them individually becomes tedious and error-prone.
With WP Ultimate CSV Importer 8.11, you can now fully import and export Events, along with Venues and Organizers data through CSV, XML, Excel, Google Sheets, or other file formats supported. This helps with community event calendars, multi-city event websites, agency-managed client websites, and event data migrations between domains.
The importer maintains relationships automatically, ensuring the correct linking between events and venue/organizer data. Everything works through the same familiar CSV Importer interface that users already know.
Just drop your file in, choose the import type and post type, map your columns, and run the import. The plugin handles the rest. This integration has been a long time coming, and it finally makes events management feel as flexible as any other WordPress data type.
For global users managing high-volume events, this eliminates hours of repetitive work.
Slim SEO Integration (Import & Export Metadata)
Slim SEO has been growing steadily, especially for users who prefer fast, lightweight, and clean SEO setups. Many of our users asked for this integration, and now it has finally arrived.
WP Ultimate CSV Importer 8.11 now supports Slim SEO metadata import and export for posts, pages, custom post types, and WooCommerce products. You can migrate SEO titles, meta descriptions, canonical URLs, schema data, and additional Slim SEO custom meta.
The importer now recognizes Slim SEO fields and lets you map them just like any other meta fields. You can import and export Slim SEO fields along with these post types. Read our documentation for Slim SEO fields import export.
This is extremely helpful for agencies performing site migrations, bloggers switching themes, or businesses upgrading infrastructure without losing SEO value. It also reduces the risk of SEO drops during domain changes.
Dropbox File Upload (New External Upload Option)
For many global teams, Dropbox is a primary storage and file-sharing platform. With 8.11, you can now import files directly from Dropbox inside WP Ultimate CSV Importer.
If you now visit the WP Ultimate CSV Importer, you will find the new upload option added at the end, named ‘Upload from External’. Choose it and configure Dropbox credentials like app key, secret key, and redirect URL. Click the Connect to Dropbox button and follow through the authentication to allow our plugin to access your Dropbox files. All you need to do is click the continue and allow buttons here. Once you’ve done this, Dropbox will be connected successfully. Your Dropbox files will be listed. Search for and choose one file, and click Upload file. Then follow the rest of the import configuration as usual and run the import.
This is ideal for agencies working with client files, teams sharing data across countries, and stores with large product catalogs stored remotely. It improves your workflow by removing the need to download files locally.
WooCommerce Export Filter Improvements (Stock-Based Exporting)
Many store owners worldwide rely on WooCommerce, and accurate inventory management is critical for conversion and user experience. Version 8.11 introduces a much-requested feature:
Export WooCommerce Products by Stock Status
Now you can filter and export products based on:
- In Stock
- Out of Stock
- Backorder
This helps store managers fix inventory inconsistencies, update stock levels in bulk, prepare product lists for reimports, and maintain clean and organized product catalogs. For high-volume stores or those selling internationally, this feature is a timesaver.
WPML Import/Export Compatibility Fixes
Multilingual websites, especially those targeting the US, European, and Middle Eastern markets, rely heavily on WPML.
Previous compatibility gaps between WPML Import Export and our plugin have now been resolved. Imports and exports maintain translations, relationships, and content structure more reliably.
Polylang + WooCommerce Variation Fixes
Alongside WPML improvements, we also addressed major issues affecting Polylang users, particularly on multilingual WooCommerce stores.
Version 8.11 fixes include variations losing the language assignment, and variations are not being created.
These fixes ensure multilingual product imports behave consistently and preserve structure across all languages.
