in the extra functions step 3 - in either prepend or append how can I add a space? I want to add my barcode and the end or beginning of the name/title field

GeekoDev

If you want to add a space you just have to do it in 2 steps, first add an append function with manual value and insert only the space ' ', then add another append function and add your barcode field.

Does this import/export product options? I didn't see it in the demo. Will it recognize custom tables in the product table and options table?

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 6 years ago

Indeed, can import/export product options, there is a lot of parameters to be able to import all kinds of complex option setups.

The module is easily capable to handle extra columns into product or product_description table. It will also be able to insert data into extra tables if you have a module made to handle the data into normal product edition, because the module will use the default opencart function to import the product so if you have a 3rd party module that is handling its data from normal product insert/edit then you can use custom fields in import step 3 to bind any import data to these tables from your 3rd party module.

For options it is a bit more complicated as it could be very specific, the module is made to handle some of common extra fields into option table (sku and upc) but it could require a bit of tweaking to make it handle other ones, I will try to make some function to be able to set up any custom field into product option table too.

3- how to use related product... How to fill the fields? To show related products and other colors also for each product?
4- how to be more organized for the filter options group which is appeare in side bar to put the sizes in one group... Colours in other group.. Brand in third group?
5- how to export orders? ... I found only order status to export.
6- how to put the color to be in options if it is appeare in the product name only ?

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 6 years ago

3. It is very easy to use, just select a field where you have a value that refers to a product (can be product id, product name, model, upc, sku, etc) and the module will automatically set this product as related.
4. Not sure to understand this one, I contact you on mail to check that.
5. Select "Order" in export type, all order data is included.
6. You mean if you don't have the options separated but only in product name like "T-shirt green" and "T-shirt blue" ?
This is quite difficult to handle because the color value is not separated from product name, in such case the only way to handle that is to set up an extra function "conditional value" to detect the color and save it in an extra field, and then use this extra field as the option. It works fine but you have to list all possible colors in conditional values because it is not possible to detect it automatically in other way.

Hi
Firstly i am really greatful for alexandre for this amazing extention which is now doing every thing i need in my website
http://www.goo.moda
Second:
I have some points i will write it here to become as the documentation to others
1-how to convert product from any category to "dress" category if the name of this product contain "dress" word"
2- when i set remove the product no longer available... And i use 2 xml from 2 supplier... It will remove the products from only this supplier or from all supplier which is already not availabe in other xml

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 6 years ago

Hi,
1. Use extra fonction "conditionnal value", set it like this:
~(dress):Dresses
Which means if dress word is found in current field, then replace this field by Dresses
2. Use import label to handle that, if you need to remove from only one supplier then set an import label for each of import, if you want to remove all products that are in both of these import then set the same import label for both.

2-what do you mean by "import label " i couldnt find it!

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 6 years ago

1. - Create custom field "category" in step 2
- Use extra fonction "conditionnal value", set it like this: ~(tunic):Tunics, and make it to save into the custom field category
- bind this custom field as your category field
2. Import label can be set in step 4

What about custom data that add with third party module
How can I export them to one CSV file ?
please advice
Udi


GeekoDev

Hi, the module is exporting all data that comes in the getProduct function, normally the 3rd party modules are inserting their data inside this function so it should be exported too.

Its not the Opencart native fields... How can I add oter filds from other tables ?

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 7 years ago

Yes, but 3rd party module are normally adding their data into the default opencart function to get a product because the data must appear on product edit page in admin, if you see your 3rd party module data in product edit page then my export tool will include this data in the export.

can i add my product code? For example product code 1234, i want to upload this code in my website XYZ1234,

how can i do it?

BR

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 7 years ago

Hi, you can use the extra function "Prepend", so you set it to add "XY" to the product code field of your import file and then all your product codes will have the XY before the code.
A lot of transformations can be done using extra functions :)

Azraell3538

Azraell3538 7 years ago

Hi GeekoDev,
i am not developer therefore can be my questions stupid. But i didn't understand that this function should to add in code page or in admin page?
If i understood true that this function can be use by product code in Step3 as like preperend(XYZ)-product code? isn't it?
i use only one precode. "FHB".
2. Question: If i own category in my website and i down't want to use import category, can be disable category choose by import and can be import only according to Product code or SKU?

Many thanks

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 7 years ago

Hi,
1. Yes prepend can be used on any of your import fields. If I understood well you have for example a file to import with this data:
code;name;[...]
1234;Some product;[...]
And you want that the code to be FHB1234 instead of just 1234, that's right? if so yes the prepend function is made for that.
2. Yes, there is a feature in the module to handle such cases easily, it is the "Category bindinds" in step 3 > extra functions, with that you can choose to which category should go the product based on a value in your import file.

Azraell3538

Azraell3538 7 years ago

Hi,
1- if i understood well, i should do so:
in Step 3:
under data tab should i add
Product code : FHBcode
thats all?
How can apply this prepend function in extension?

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 7 years ago

I make you a screenshot for understand better: http://prntscr.com/kxmir2
Tell me if this is what you want to do.
The extra function will apply a transformation to a field into your import file, then you can choose to import that code FHB1234 to product model, sku, or any field you want.

Hi,
I am interested in buying this extension. I have a questio: in the XML feed if the 'category' name is called 'Games', but I want to map anything products in this category into one I have set up called 'Toys' instead - can this be done? Is this in the binding categories?

GeekoDev

GeekoDev 7 years ago

Hi,
Yes the Category bindings feature is made for that. All you have to do is to set up what is the category node in Step 3 > Links, then go to Extra functions > Category bindings, click on Refresh category list (it will detect all categories in your actual feed), and then you will be able to set to which of your opencart categories you want to bind them.
If you want to bind only 1 category but want the rest to be created as they appear in the feed then just bind the wanted category and let the others empty.

Buy it :) I'm using it and you can do anything with it! It would be also possible if you're using "replace". Replacing the word "Toys" with "Games". Products in Import which are connected to Toys Category will change to Games.
Or of course Category Binding :)

Hello, I'm thinking to buy this module, but I have a few questions.
1) Does it support multi language attributes?
2) Does it support product quick update not just price, but if I have product discount prices for each group? (I did not see at your demo site)
3) In your demo, I got an error, then trying to test Export attributes, Notice: Error: Could not load template /home/sirius/demov2/admin/view/template/module/universal_export_attribute.tpl
(your products still in "beta"?)
4) How long takes time to Import about 20k products, with a large number of attributes, and got three languages.

4 = I have a few 65k sites and it imports in about 4.30mins but it really is dependeant on the feed quantity, speed of server youy are downloading images from and speed of your server and db.
