Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons

[jgiven]

I am getting the following error when attempting to import locations by way of CSV file:

“Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons.”

The CSV file is fine, it was created with Google Sheets. This is pretty frustrating. I bought the Power add-on specifically for this feature.

After you created the Google sheets file did you download it to a CSV file and save it where you could access it, in a local directory and then upload it?

The minimum info we need to assist you:
A screenshot of your Plugin environment found under the SLP/INFO tab is best, it shows us
the SLP and WP and PHP versions, including the SLP add-ons you may have. Best method to provide this info is to capture a screenshot , under the Info tab ,
If it would be useful, please also
provide the site url page where you have the SLP locator activated

If you have a debug log please include any error information.
I cant see into your site, nor your computer , to assist you so I am afraid I need more info in order to help you.
If you are sure you have a properly formatted csv file, Check to see if your server is preventing the wp-cron.php from being triggered.
You might be able to see what the issue is after reading the IMPORT process
