Go back to the import/export page and then make sure you've selected <strong>forms</strong> to export and not entries. The export file will be in XML format and you can then import that as a new form wherever you'd like.</p> <p>screenshot: <a href="http://bit.ly/txQrbK" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/txQrbK</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/exported-csv-instead-of-xml-help#post-41220 Tue, 15 Nov 2011 21:31:57 +0000 sunnydays 41220@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The same thing happened to me, but I am trying to import a form on a different site. I have an exported .csv and I am being asked for .xml. How do I fix this?

I know that's a bummer to say the least.<br /> If you have a recent database backup that's your best bet to restore your forms &amp; entry data. Good luck with it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/exported-csv-instead-of-xml-help#post-27224 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 15:56:32 +0000 tbonemofo 27224@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>That's what I thought. I, of course, hit the red button.

Did you click on the red uninstall button or just remove the files from the plugin folder?</p> <p>If you did delete everything with the red button, you're going to have to look for a backup if you have any or else you're going to have to recreate the forms. The red button uninstalls everything related to Gravity Forms.. all the entries, forms, etc. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/exported-csv-instead-of-xml-help#post-27207 Tue, 07 Jun 2011 14:36:43 +0000 tbonemofo 27207@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I upgraded to the Developer's License just a few moments ago. Before I did, I did what I thought was a backup of 3 very long forms I had created. I didn't see the XML tab, and exported them to CSV. I then uninstalled GF and re-installed the developer's version. Of course when I went to import the forms, GF said they were not in the right format because they are CSV instead of XML. </p> <p>Is there anything I can do, instead of having to rebuild the forms? </p>
