Maury Markowitz Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I surprised myself and made a product import CSV that managed to import the vast majority of my 500+ products on the first try. But everything when into the "Home" category, in spite of the categories being in the DB. Two possibilities: Do I have to list all categories on the way to a sub-cat? For instance, can I put something directly into "Tools", or do I have to put it into "Home;Products;Wire and supplies;Tools" Is the category a name? Or the id number?

Maury Markowitz Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Well neither of those appear to be the issue. I tried both an ID and the "complete path" and they still went into Home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulisses Ramos Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 This is fixed on the development version... but prestashop keeps 1.5.3.1 as a stable version for more than a 1,5 months.. instead of releasing that as a new version. People are downloading and installing the buggy 1.5.3.1 and reporting all error that are already corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vekia Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 the best way to import product is provide ID - not category name, you can import it only to sub category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to install the dev version... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The development version is way more stable that that 1.5.3.1 piece of s.... This should be released as 1.5.3.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Markowitz Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Sigh. Ok, I've downloaded it, but I don't think I'm really capable of installing it without a guide. Any pointers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulisses Ramos Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 If you don´t want to upgrade, just go to "controllers\admin\" rename the existing AdminImportController.php to AdminImportControllerold.php and copy the one from the zip file to that folder, This should fix all import issues. If you have any problems, just delete the new one and rename the AdminImportControllerold.php back to AdminImportController.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
