#*If csv file contains non-english characters than it needs to be saved in [[UTF-8]] format. One way to do this is to change .csv file extension to .txt, and open resulting file in [[Microsoft Notepad|Notepad]] and use ''save as'' option to save in [[UTF-8]] format.

# Copy CSVLoader.dll to the AWB directory.

# Log in to AWB (<u>with bot account</u>)

# Create replacement rules in ''option'' tab ''Normal settings'' button. See [[:File:Wpcsv-5-6-10-1.JPG|here]] for examples. All replacement rules must be related to CSV file. You can use ''option'' tab ''Advanced settings'' button to create additional rules not related to CSV file.

# Select "CSV Loader plugin" from the Plugins menu. In the CSV loader settings box, (see example [[:File:Wpcsv-5-6-10-2.JPG|here]])

#* In ''Text File'' area select the CSV file that will be used.

#* In ''Options'' area check "Find and Replace" and filefield separator (comma or semicolon for CSV).

#* In ''Column Headers'' area enter the column headers (enclose them with ## (or any other symbol), example: <code><nowiki>##city##,##district##,##state##,##country##</nowiki></code>). Do ''not'' include spaces between around the commas.

#* Leave ''Article Text'' area unchanged
