This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
I have to choose a CSV importer plugin for a project.
The site has an items catalog build with Toolset CPT and custom fields.
The items CPT uses custom fields and repeatable groups.
Will support multiple languages (planned on using WPML).
From reading the docs WP All Import Plugin and WP Ultimate CSV Importer are the two best choices, they both claim to support relationships and repeatable field groups.
Any reason to choose one or the other? Pros and Cons in how they play nice with Toolset?
Let me know any other info about the site that might be useful to keep in consideration.
Solution:
I am not really sure that WP All Import supports repeatable groups. It should, as it already supports relationships and Repeatable Field Groups(RFG) are managed by a hidden relationship.
The only tutorial available on importing RFGs is about the CSV Importer plugin https://toolset.com/course-lesson/importing-repeatable-field-groups-when-using-the-csv-importer-plugin/
Please check this summary from Beda that gives more details https://toolset.com/forums/topic/how-to-import-relationships-with-toolset/#post-1566527
From a WPML perspective, WP All Import is listed as a compatible plugin and also recommended, I could not confirm if CSV Importer is compatible.
