About the Developer
This extension was developed by and is supported by capacityweb
Import Products categories, multiple images and custom options 95 95great 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, 2012Works 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, 2012And 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, 2012This extension is well worth the money. It's a lifesaver for rapidly importing massive amounts of products as a CSV and bringing across all the extra data such as categories and custom options. No developer should be without it. I also found their technical support to be fantastic, and they instantly wrote back to help with any questions I had. June 13, 2012i will not recommend to buy this extension after a lot of testing work. please wait the developer to fix the problem. June 8, 2012Your extension really have some problems which will make our work seem more complex and not effective. 1) we are forced to have all the columns even though we only need to update the product price. it's really a non-effecitive way. for example, if i want to update a product, and i don't have the image columns , that means i don't want to do any update with product image, BUT IT DOES NOT MEANS I WANT TO DELETE THE products images. SO your code should do delete image only i have that column name and leave blank value for these images. 2) in every import your code always check the media/import folder to see if there are specific images. see, after import, it's a natural thing we may delete the images in media/import folder, but after sometime, maybe we want to UPDATE a product price, but your code will not working because you can not find the product images. 3) your code dont working with multi-store. we also tested other problem, seems the problem are very complex. June 8, 2012Product have two same pictures what should I do. June 3, 2012how can i import configurable products. May 29, 2012Absolutely useless without the ability to import brand/manufacturer. May 13, 2012Great extension. My question: in your sample csv file, there are only a few fiels, the other important fields such as mrsp, manufacturer etc. which are in the standard magento import file are not in there. How would I do if I want to import those fields as well? May 11, 2012- Q&A
