Product uploads

[Alan H]

Hi

Quick question, I have over 500 products in a database. Am I able to upload them to the product file.

The data has come from my shop epos, so it has all the details (other then images) that I need.

Would sure save a lot of time.

Thanks

I am not familiar with the DB structure of the cart you referenced. There is/was a Zen mod called EZ populate that might assist in formatting/porting your current information so that it is in the ZenCart structure.

The mod might be found by searching for EZ Populate if that proves no joy, the user langer is the author.

Hey Alan,

Did you find out how to upoad the 500 product you have to your shopping cart... if so can you pass that info to me... Been trying to upload my csv file of products to my shopping cart.....can't do it yet, I am inputting them one by one.. Lots of work.

Thank you and God bless

classact,

as you probably now have several products entered, if you have phpmyadmin access login and select the product tables and export to an excel file or other format that you prefer. Now open the resulting file so that you can see the structure of the tables and the info contained therein. Now if you have another DB with the products entered adjust the filesds to match and try concatenating these two files. You can then upload them via phpmyadmin.

Alternative there are several commercial apps to make this simple that you can google for such as 'excel to mysql'. Time is money.
