I am unable to import descriptions of terms that are included in the CSV file exported by the Taxonomy CSV module.

I used this command with the attached file:
drush vocimp /Volumes/Bullfrog/om/sites/all/taxonomies/chinese_zodiac.csv fields --vocabulary_id=chinese_zodiac --vocabulary_target=existing --result_terms --keep_order --delete_terms --result_stats --check_line

The vocabulary is imported and terms are created as I expect but without descriptions. I get the following warning:

Notices have been reported during import process (bad formatted or  [warning]
empty lines). 12 lines processed. First notice occurred on line 1
[Notice : Too many items on the line for the selected format. These
items will be ignored. Line is processed.].

Hi,

When you import fields, you have to set the order of your fields, because the module can't determine it itself. In your case, it's something like "name,vocabulary_machine_name,description,format,weight,Something,language". So your command line will be:

drush vocimp chinese_zodiac.csv fields --fields_format="name,vocabulary_machine_name,description,format,weight,something,language" --vocabulary_id=chinese_zodiac --vocabulary_target=existing --result_terms --delete_terms --result_stats --check_line.

Note that as you set a weight in your format, you can't use the --keep_order option (it's the same).

Sincerely,
