Lately, I have been busy uploading my older sightings by using the csv-import. It always worked fine, but the past few days I have a few files that don’t seem to be imported. It had been about 48 hours since I uploaded them, and I didn’t get an email about them being uploaded (normally it takes only a few hours max). Another file I tried yesterday evening worked fine and I also got the confirmation-email (on the other hand, a secondn smaller file from yesterday hasn’t been uploaded either). Should I try again for these older ones (and risk they are imported twice), or wait a bit longer?

edit: so I have 3 files that have been uploaded \>24 hours ago and which are not on the site yet. I also noticed another file was uploaded twice, so I had to delete about 10.000 records…

Thanks in advance!
