makavelistein Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hello All, Alter a few days pulling my hair out and getting the categories updated, I am now killing myself with the product import. The import does not give error reporting if I upload over ~150 products. I have used the errors previously to correct column character length. Does anyone know what the lengths of each field in the csv should be? I need to know for the following : Short description Description Tags (x,y,z...) Meta-title Meta-keywords Meta-description This stuff really should be in the documentation. I mean if Meta-description can only take 255 chars why the hell is this NOT in the documentation/CSV template? As a part-time developer myself I thought that you devs at PS should make a CSV validator that we can run on the data locally before the never ending upload. if there are any characters that are not allowed inside the values, please list these. Best wishes, makavelistien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoppy Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Hi I too posted on the forum about the lack of documentation. I have 3000 products and 250 categories to import. SO I posted a question but no response after 3 days. I am ready to give up on Prestashop just over the poor import documentation. http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/250339-wanted-instructions-import-categories-subcategories-products/ Its a pity a good product is spoilt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
