Anyhelp will be fantastic as i have around 2000 products to add with different attributes and through admin will take a very very long time

Thank you in advance

Again, welcome to ZC!

So with regards to this issue and the way EP4 works. As you have found/desire, entry of multiple products in a single "swoop" is easier with this plugin. That said, it still "follows" the same process. First the product must exist, and as part of "creating" the product, it must go into a category. Then, to apply attributes, the attribute(s) must exist (attributes basic), then the product is populated with the attribute(s) (attributes detailed). In each step that relates to a product, EP4 generally requires a unique model#; however, with EP4 version 4.0.32, it is possible to relate product by the products_id when the admiin configuration settings are "properly" set. A word of note/caution though is that it also depends on how you plan to use/automate EP4. If your import information will be from a vendor iin the form of some other file, then purely using the model# (or possibly some other field as recoded in Ep4) would be suggested. If the data to be imported will be "self generated" then use of the products_id might be more suitable. For those that don't yet have a model# associated, the same feature can be used to apply one to the product.

Help any?
