Yes, you can have it, You need to make a slight change in Profile settings. You need to choose URL Safe option rather than string for Alias parameter and when you import the data you need to map Title with Alias column instead of Alias.

I managed to sort this out it was a slow connection issue. Another question on this same topic, is there a way to put the alias to be the same as the name of the category? If i have Name of Category leave it to name-of-category is this possible?

The error message comes up when you click the button multiple times. It means the button is working, Please wait for a while after clicking the button.
Thanks

Hello,
Please choose as defined option for parent column and directly enter the category ID in the textfield below.

Hello
I am trying to import several k2 categories from a csv file and i need them to be under a parent category, on the parent field i have referenced to k2 category table on ID but problem is that i dont find a way to actually set the ID number. See attached screenshot, on the select column i keep getting that blank field with those options.
Thanks in advance.
