    Hi all,
    This seems like a very nice plugin.
    I just want to ask something before I try it.
    1. Can this plugin import multiply categories? Do I separate them with | character?
    2. When importing the images does it upload to the local site or leaves image where it is by url on the csv file?

  • Hello Micah,

    Thank you for your appreciation.
    1) Yes, you can import multiple categories separating them by | as separator
    and also hierarchical categories by >
    2) When you import an image, it will be stored in your site “Media Library”
    you can reuse it in future.

    Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any queries.

    Hi all,

    Importing hierarchical categories by separating them by using ‘>’ works great. However, after importing only the last category is assigned to the product. How can I assign all the categories to the product?

    For example: assigning both categories ‘men’ and ‘pants’ to a product when using ‘men>pants’.

    Hi @pchulpfriesland,

    The plugin will assign all categories using the products. You can see this happens perfectly as shown in the screenshot – https://www.xadapter.com/woocommerce-import-product-categories/

    Can you please share with us the csv so that we can check it out?

    Hi XAdapter,

    Thanks for your response. I think there is a misunderstanding. When I check this screenshot (https://cdn.xadapter.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Variable_Product.png) the hierarchical categories are perfectly imported. However, it seems to me that the product ‘Men’s Cotton T-shirt’ is only assigned to the category T-shirts (the categories ‘Tops and tees’, ‘Men’, ‘Clothes and accessoires’ above remained unchecked).

    This means that the product ‘Men’s Cotton T-shirt’ will not be showed when someone filters the products on category ‘men’ at the storefront. Is it possible to check the level up categories above a sub-category as well?

    Hi,

    Yes, to keep the categories checked, you need to do the following :
    For example in the example below, for the product, Clothing & Accessories, Men, T-shirts, Tops & Tees are checked – https://ibb.co/dBxQG5 So in the csv, you need to mention them in the following way :

    Clothing & Accessories|Clothing & Accessories > Men|Clothing & Accessories > Men > Tops & Tees > T-Shirts|Clothing & Accessories > Men > Tops & Tees
