CSV import problems with names of subcategories


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have problem when importing mine categories and products from external excel pricelist.

I have manually in backoffise set categories and subcategories in shop the way i like it (same as in pricelist) and everything is looking ok but problem is with CSV import.

I have categorie notebooks and in it i have subcategories DELL, HP etc...
Than i have categorie PC and in it i have subcategories DELL, HP etc...
Than i have categorie monitors and in it again i have subcategories DELL, HP etc...

Now problem is as it seems that CSV can't handle multiple subcategories with same name.

Is this correct or am i missing something in order to make it work?

Please, any help is more than wellcome!

Thanx in advance!

Hi all,

You can use this trick to be able to create many categories and sub-categories with the same “displayed” name:

In the database, the names will be different thanks to the “xx.” prefix, but because this prefix is not displayed, the category names will seem to be the same.

Regards.
