• WARNING: The excel2topics script is a very powerful tool. It can overwrite every topic in your web with a new version. Be careful what you are doing with this program.
• You can use this tool to import topics that do not have a form attached to them at all. Just create a Excel sheet with a TEXT and a TOPIC column. The TEXT column contains the raw text of the topic while the TOPIC column contains the topic name.
