Sorry if this is super "newbie", but I'm stumped. I'm trying to create a function in WP All Import that states if the cell is empty it populates with "Not Specified". Please see below:

function power_translate_data( $data ) {
    $map = array(
        ' '                     => 'Not Specified',
 );

    foreach ( $map as $partial_match => $mapped_value ) {
        if ( stristr( $data, $partial_match ) ) {
            return $mapped_value;
        }
    }
    return $data;
}

I appreciate any help you can give. Thank you!

• functions
• array

• stristr with ' ' will attemp to find the string value of a space in the data. You want to use if ( trim($data) == $partial_match ) and set the value to '' (no space) – majick Commented Oct 10, 2019 at 9:03
• @majick that worked beautifully. Thank you! – Chad H Commented Oct 10, 2019 at 11:19

• First enable wp_debug log

• Second dump the array errror_log(print_r($map))

• Then look at your data array, and then start out writing the function.

• Sometimes WP All Import is a pain in the ass
