My own problem is that I just started an ecommerce site and wish to fill it with products but can not afford to employ extra hands to do that for Me so I Am looking for a way to import products from another site or just duplicate their site on my website and make changes to make it look totally different. Please I would appreciate any help. Please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iryna Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) As far as I know PrestaShop admin does not allow you massively add virtual products. Although, you may use the solution called Store Manager for PrestaShop that imports downloadable (virtual) products in bulk. Naturally, you must correctly arrange data in the file, include required fields and proceed with a couple of settings to upload virtuals. There are some instructions provided, follow them in order to upload virtual products - http://www.prestashopmanager.com/useful-articles/tips-tricks/import-virtual-products-to-prestashop/ The solution is paid, but you can use 30-day trial version if you want to try it or upload products one time only - http://addons.prestashop.com/en/administration-tools-prestashop-modules/2937-store-manager-for-prestashop.html Edited April 14, 2014 by Iryna (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please I really need help here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iryna Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 (edited) To import products from somebody's site, you need to have actual access to it or information from this site saved in the file.
