I see mantis has removed my ASTERISK.ASTERISK

Title should be:import participants from csv allows any ASTERISK.ASTERISK file in principle

Description should be: when you import participants from csv the browse windows allows to put any ASTERISK.ASTERISK file in principle, but it doesn't work however

Steps to reproduce:

import a participant table by csv import, the explorer window allows you to put the ASTERISK.ASTERISK file filter, use it and upload a ASTERISK.txt csv file

Expected result

either disallow ASTERISK.ASTERISK or allow an ASTERISK.csv file

Actual result

ASTERISK.ASTERISK is allowed in theory but it doesn't upload any csv

sorry for the confusion

The "All files" option is part of your operating system's file dialog and can't be removed by a web page. LimeSurvey only accepts .csv files and shows an error for other file types, as in your screenshot. Please rename the file to .csv to import it.
