FAQ

  1. Is there any limitation on file size?
    The size of the file is based on the Upload size of your server configuration. The ‘upload_max_filesize’ should be at least 2M. You can verify your system values in settings -> security and performance.

  2. Can I include an external URL for image import?
    Featured images can be imported from an external URL, but inline images can be populated only through shortcodes.

  3. How to include images within the content?
    Inline images in the content can be included using shortcodes. The images in the shortcode need to be uploaded in a zip folder containing images with the exact names mentioned in the shortcode.

  4. Why isn’t the import button enabled?
    The import button will only be enabled after uploading the CSV file for import. If it’s not enabled, ensure that the file is in UTF-8 format.

Me funcionó perfecto para la actualización de precios de manera masiva, solamente exporté SKU y Precio desde los productos de Woocommerce, los cambié en hoja de calculo numbers y luego lo volví a importar con los precios ajustados, y perfecto incluidas variaciones de producto.

Seems like a nice program with a good interface. Tech support answered ticket very quickly. Developer has produced no documentation so I had to guess how it works. After several hit and miss attempts, managed to import a few products. Tried reproducing the exact same steps with more data and it didn't work. Tried various options, didn't work. Program didn't read the column headers correctly, often missing letters and adding new line feeds. Results were loaded and imported, but no products created.

Looks like a good plugin when you first start but it's a bit of a pain to use and there's no FAQs... One bugbear is you can't save your mapping easily, so you have to manually fill a lot of boxes every time you make a fresh import. It is also really hard to figure out how to do variable products.
