Import Products categories, multiple images and custom options

You can use this extension to import products with categories, multiple images and custom options from CSV file. We have well tested this extension and it is working perfectly. Please let us know if you need any guidance or help to use this extension. We are ready to help you.

To insert custom options, please create column with name of custom option in product import CSV file with specific format. Please Download Sample Products Import CSV and create your Products CSV file accordingly. Please read Overview Section throughly.

E.g. if you want to create custom option for size then custom option column name should create like this,

cws!Size:drop_down:1 (Column Heading)

Size=custom option name

drop_down=control name

1=mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)

Under this column enter value of custom option separated by pipe sign (|) as per example.

E.g. XS|S|M|L|XL

For add different price for different size add like

Small|Medium:fixed:5|Large:fixed:10

It means if product price is $100 then for Medium size product price 105 and Large size product price is 110.

You can create different types of custom options. Here is example

cws!Size Time:time:1

Size Time = custom option name
time = control name
1 = mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)

E.g
|:fixed:100
===================================================

cws!Size CheckBox:checkbox:1
Size CheckBox = custom option name
checkbox = control name
1 = mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)
E.g.
Small1:fixed:10|Medium2:fixed:10|Large2:fixed:10

===================================================

cws!Size RadioButton:radio:1

Size RadioButton = custom option name
radio = control name
1 = mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)
E.g.
Small3:fixed:101|Medium3:fixed:101|Large3:fixed:101
===================================================
cws!Size Multiselect:multiple:1

Size Multiselect = custom option name
multiple = control name
1 = mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)
E.g.
Small4:fixed:11|Medium4:fixed:11|Large4:fixed:11

===================================================
cws!Size Area:area:1

Size Area = custom option name
area = control name
1 = mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)
E.g.
|:fixed:101::20
Here 20 is max input character for text area
===================================================
cws!Size Date:date:1

Size Date = custom option name
date = control name
1 = mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)
E.g.
|:fixed:101

===================================================

cws!Size DateTime:date_time:1

Size DateTime = custom option name
date_time = control name
1 = mandatory filed. (0 for optional field)
E.g.
|:fixed:31

To insert category name, please create “categories“ column in your products import CSV file. Please remove “category_ids” column from products import CSV file if you have.

Now enter categories name under “categories” column

E.g. Movie/Cartoon

Movie1=parent category

cartoon1=child category of Movie1 category.

If you want to add multiple category then you can add "," comma separated.

E.g. Movie02/cartoon02,Movie02/cartoon03

To insert multiple images, please create “gallery “column in your products import CSV file.

Under this column enter images name separated by semicolon ( ; ) . Please enter relative path of images like below example. Please do not use path like (<a>http://www.xyz.com/ab.jpg</a> ) for images.

E.g. /image1_1jpg;/image1_2.jpg

Import Products categories, multiple images and custom options 5 5 92 92
Hello ! First, Thank you for the pluggin ! it's very convenient for simple product. UnfortunAtly, i didn't manage to import configurable product with multiple image... Could you help me or send me an exemple of CSV that i could use with your module ? Thank you again for your help October 21, 2012
Magento import multiple images SOLVED After spending hours trying to get the gallery images to work in the CSV product import though dataflow I have up and looked for an extension. I found this it installed in a few seconds and worked first shot! Also it solved the issue: Magento product import duplicate images. October 10, 2012
Eveything works fine with the upload. However, when I go to re-download the spreadsheet the custom option columns do not exist and the images are reverted back to how magento sets them /a/b/image.jpg. So now if I was to re-upload this then it would get rid of the product options and images. Is there any way this does not happen? October 3, 2012
The app worked like a charm. Also good support, my questions where answered within a day. I have some bulk import for my site, so this is the tool September 21, 2012
we finally give up this extension, and develop our owns. if you are thinking about bulk import products, you may met with the following troubles: 1) the extension can not import images 2) custom options not workings 3) can not work with multi-store 4) the import process is extremely slow until you want to give it up! initially we use this extension, but it takes me at least 1.5 month to communicate with capacityweb to solve the problem. and FINALLY I GIVE UP because it's not working. if you are still face the trouble, just let me know, maybe i can help. Good Lucky! September 14, 2012
just purchased and tested but size option is not appear on front end . and category is not defined ( format ; Men/Shirt ) August 21, 2012
Purchased this today, received it within minutes and very simple install by FTP (no files are replaced). My main reason for purchase was to use it for importing multiple images (Gallery). We have about 150 products that share the same images, so by just using SKU, Image and Gallery on the CSV we were able to get everything imported within minutes. I'm looking forward to trying its other import features soon, and should save us a great deal of time. Thank for the excellent service guys :) Magento 1.7.0.2 August 20, 2012
great easy tool, I was having all sorts of trouble with the default magento Import/Export Profile 1.7.02, spent many hours with no luck, this extension took 2 minutes to start the import and all my categories were imported with the 11k+ products, thankyou July 18, 2012
Works like a charm! Had to convert proprietary mySQL data to Magento. Wrote a script, fine tuned it and imported it with this extension. Saved days! Tx June 17, 2012
And i will not recommend any person to buy this extension before they fix the serious bugs! you will face trouble once you use this extension. June 13, 2012
