Hi

I wondered if anyone can offer any advice on importing Customer Account Details from an old e-commerce site into Opencart

Regards Ian

Hi,

There are a few options to do this, it depends on the structure on the old store and on your budget :)

1. import customers via SQL, by exporting and importing SQL queries. Those might have to be altered to fit the OC table structure.
2. create a PHP import script, that uses a CSV or Excel file to import all the details and manipulate the data to fit Open Cart table structure. The CSV file will be exported from the old store.

Please contact me for more information.

Andrew.

Hi Andrew

Thanks for your reply

I wasn't sure if there was any extensions available to do this.

I did have a look in PHP My admin to see whether it was possible to do an export and import but my knowledge of this is quite limited.
