This page contains community CSVs containing cities for various countries of the world. The initial batch of CSVs was taken from our forum thread. Each of these CSVs will allow you quickly add a significant number of new cities to your Directory-powered website.
To use these CSVs you’ll need…
- Our Directory theme (or a Directory child theme).
- The free Bulk Import plugin. For import instructions open the theme guide.
- Make sure the Location Manager plugin is active.
Terms and Conditions
- To submit the CSV you should have at least one active membership with Templatic.
- A maximum of 2 add-ons will be granted which means even if your are sending 10 CSVs you will be elegible for only 2 directory add-ons.
- The CSV that you provide should be of popular country where number of cities are high. (min 5,000)

Submit your own city CSV and receive a prize!
In case you created a list of cities for your own site feel free to send it to us and allow others to reuse the CSV. As a thank you for the contribution we’ll be rewarding you with a free Directory add-on of your choice. This time around we’ll be allowing a maximum of three CSVs per country (before it was just 1). Having 3 available CSV’s will provide more variety to the person downloading them in the future. Once all three slots are filled future CSVs (for the same country) will be rejected.
Before submitting your CSV make sure it matches this criteria
- The CSV can be imported without any errors.
- The CSV is encoded in UTF-8.
- The names of cities are written in normal text. ALL CAPS or unnecessary characters should be avoided.
- The dash (-) is used to separate multiple words in the City Slug column. If the city name is “New York” the slug should be “new-york”.
