uploading loads of products!


Recommended Posts

I sort of know how to, but could someone please give me a quick step by step guide on how to upload a cvs file of all my products to my shop.
Mainly what each column needs to be called and how I set the store so that my list will upload.

massive thank you!

If you are loading up a large volume of products and you are running on a shared host you would be best served by doing this offline first on a local dev machine, exporting the database using mysqldump and then re-instantiate it on the host and upload everyrthing else via FTP.

I am currently working with a book database of around 11,000 items and it takes around 10 minutes to do a complete import with images on a local machine. On a shared web host that would likely fail due to server limits and such.

Cheers
