World Import Button doesn't work
In Minecraft Windows 10 Edition - Clicking "import" and selecting the world doesn't import the world save. See photos attached. It's not clear how the "import" button works or what files are accepted but I have the world save downloaded to my computer. I understand I could just copy my world save to the saves folder in packages but then there wouldn't be a point for the "import" button which should be making the job easier.
EDIT: I browsed the entire directory, plus lower directory db but importing doesn't work for either.

I don't believe the import button is fully implemented yet... it was seen in Tommaso Checchi's tweet here: Twitter: Tommaso Checchi, but it was later removed on MCPE. The button still exists, however, for Windows 10.

Nah, perform a better title for MCPE-14002 instead. Button works, but the funtionality doesn't. Someone makes confusing titles and I need to guess which one is related to me.


I think it happens because the folder world doesn't contain an exported world
As seen in Tommaso Checchi's tweet here: Twitter: Tommaso Checchi, he hinted at the world import button, but it wasn't seen in 0.14. The button still exists, however, for Windows 10, but doesn't work.
As I said on
MCPE-13706:You can only import maps that use the .mcworld format, and world saves in .zip format cannot be imported or changed to .mcworld files without exporting them from in-game.
I've tested the export/import functions in 0.15.0 and they appear to be working entirely as intended, so I think this issue can be closed.
Changes to the new GUI fixed this problem. However, you have to export an existing world in order to import it. The "Import" feature is only supported in Minecraft Windows 10 Edition.
No, it's not fixed in latest version (0.15.4) of Windows 10 Edition. See my bug report.
