Hi, one little question: can i export in 1.5 version, and then import in a 2.0 version? Thanks

The spreadsheet formats will be different between 1.5.x and 2.0.x versions of OpenCart.

Do an Export first from the 2.0.x OpenCart, to see the exact new format, and then copy and paste the old spreadsheet data from your 1.5.x OpenCart to the new one, finally import back to the new OpenCart 2.0.x.

Ok, thanks for the help (:

Hi, i really like this extension using it for the first time (used csv extension before), but iam having a little problem and hope it is possible to fix because it would save me alot of work.

When exporting my products i get memory error, i did change php in Xampp and in the local opencart folders to 2048MB memory_limit, but it didnt help to remove the memory error. Tried to give Xampp 4096MB for memory limit but that got Xampp Apache stop working all together.

I have 55,000 products in 3 languages (700MB in DB), in the products i have got over 5,000 duplicates i want removed, but it wont work if i export the products in batches, when reimporting all products i will replace all existing products.

Hi!

Great extension!

Would it be possible to put the store name at the front of the exported filename so that you can export and compare Excel-files from different stores more easily?

Of course I can do it manually but it would simplify things....just a suggestions for future releases.

Hi,

I installed the free export/import tool extension.

When I try to export a product list, I receive following message :"Undefined Offset: 3"
Exporting and importing categories is working fine.

What can I do about this?

Thank you.

Jakub

EDIT: This is msg from my error log
2015-05-19 18:18:21 - PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 3 in /home/progamershop.cz/progamershop.cz/admin/model/tool/export_import.php on line 5028

Flashback87: If you send me a PM with your FTP, PHPMyAdmin and OpenCart login details, then I can take a look at.

When I import my products with my options, which are colours and sizes only one of the options will import in. So as the colour is product option 1 that is the one that is imported unless there is no colour options in which case it will import the size option, but it will NEVER import both for one product. I have uninstalled my test opencart site and done a clean install of opencart-2.0.1.1. After struggling with this for nearly 2 weeks I have realised that this is way beyond my comprehension and I desperately need some help. I have tried checking and rechecking that I don't have any duplicate option ids or option value ids, I would be very very grateful for some assistance with this.
TIA
Alice.

I am unable to reproduce your problem, I just tested it on a standard OpenCart 2.0.1.1, by adding the 'Select' option with a few colour values to product with product_id=35, so it would have 2 options for colours and sizes. And the Import works just fine.

It seems your database is corrupted. You have currently 2 languages installed:

1 = English
2 = Čeština

However, in your oc_attribute_description, oc_attribute_group_description, oc_product_attribute and other tables, you have quite a few entries using language_id=3. Only language_id=1 or language_id=2 is allowed. By the looks of it, it seems all your OpenCart test data are having entries with the invalid language_id=3.

This fix would probably correct it:
Go through all DB tables which have a language_id column, and change the rows with language_id=3 to language_id=2.

What is default pattern for importing images? I can't make it work with cureent version of OC/plugin, but it worked for me 2 months ago with usage of this pattern: {category under image/catalog}/{image name.jpg}. It doesn't work anymore.

I'm having a problem with the image and image_name import fields as well.

Hi all,

Thanks for the great tool and a massive update from the last version.

I have a small issue. I have suppliers from many different companies so I am trying to spread out my product ID's and upload them via single sheets. I have done a few but one sheet is causing me a headache

when I upload this sheet I get the error

Export/Import: Missing product_ids in worksheet 'Products'!

the product id range I am using is from 10001 to 10320 other sheets are 28 - 3000 and 3001 - 4000 and so on

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Many thanks,

Rich

Hi,
I tried install extension to fresh OC ver. 2.0.3.1 without errors. But when I try Import Products, Import totaly crash with lots of SQL errors. Import Attributes and Categories is ok.
Also, I trying move data from OC 1.5.5.1 to newest OC, but when I use same version of tool (2.26), export from OC 1.5.5.1 is not compatible with Import on 2.0.3.1. It show error with header in xlsx file.

edit:
I resolved problem.
There is problem with extension....its not export Manufacturers. When I manually add all manufacturers to new OC, Product Import working.

Next... extension not working at systems, where is allowed open_basedir only to /tmp/uploads. I was must edit file.php in and change at rows 44 and 52 to TRUE.

Also, thank you a LOT for this free extension.

Dear JNeuhoff,

I have successfully installed the extension, however, when I tried to export for the first time, the excel shows me nothing but this,

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ErrorException' with message 'Error: Table 'db_askmewinehk.product_tag' doesn't exist<br />Error No: 1146<br />SELECT p.product_id, pd.name, GROUP_CONCAT( DISTINCT CAST(pc.category_id AS CHAR(11)) SEPARATOR "," ) AS categories, p.sku, p.upc, p.location, p.quantity, p.model, m.name AS manufacturer, p.image AS image_name, p.shipping, p.price, p.points, p.date_added, p.date_modified, p.date_available, p.weight, wc.unit, p.length, p.width, p.height, p.status, p.tax_class_id, p.viewed, p.sort_order, pd.language_id, ua.keyword, pd.description, pd.meta_description, pd.meta_keyword, p.stock_status_id, mc.unit AS length_unit, p.subtract, p.minimum, GROUP_CONCAT( DISTINCT CAST(pr.related_id AS CHAR(11)) SEPARATOR "," ) AS related, GROUP_CONCAT( DISTINCT pt.tag SEPARATOR "," ) AS tags FROM `product` p LEFT JOIN `product_description` pd ON p.product_id=pd.product_id AND pd.language_id=1 LEFT JOIN `product_to_category` pc ON p.product_id=pc.product_id LEFT in /var/www/vhosts/askmewinehk.com/httpdocs/system/database/mysqli.php on line 41

Furthermore, I have checked that I have got the correct version 1.5.6.4 of opencart and extension. Please kindly advise what problem is happening.

Regards,
Joseph.

The error message is right, there is no 'product_tag' table in OpenCart 1.5.6.4. You probably installed the wrong version of the Export/Import tool, use Export/Import tool v2.26.

Hi,
It's possible that?
I have an exported product file whith about 1.100 products. I edit about 100 products, put them in about 5-6 categories each. Then i import back the file and... some products appear in other categories, not those that i put. If i export again the product file, it's changed, different than the one i edited and imported, whith some products in fewer categories (two).
If i edit only a few products works perfect, but if i edit more than 100, i have this error.
Can you help me, please? I have OC 2.0.2.0.

You need to define the categories first before using them in the Products-worksheet.

Other than that, I am unable to help you, unable to reproduce any of your errors.

Hi!

Would it be possible for you to include information from "product_to_download" as well in a future version?
