I have a site with Magento 1.7
I have create a custom import for my client but if I write this in the csv in the place of the options
CIANO:fixed:0:EP10-CHIP9700C:0|MAGENTA:fixed:0:EP10-CHIP9700VM:0|GIALLO:fixed:0:EP10-CHIP9700Y:0|NERO MATTE:fixed:0:EP10-CHIP9700MB:0|
It create options in a dropdown.
This is the filed that create in csv:
A column:
CapacitĀ :drop_down:0:0
And a column
Colore:drop_down:0:0
In this mode in this column it put the options but if I have radio and dropdown?
Have I to create other column nearby like:
CapacitĀ : radio:0:0

"i need to assign multiple products a same categories."
If you want to do this. you have to go to category edit.
Catalog -> Manage Categories
Select a category
Click on Category Products tab (on top)
On very first column select any (there you see Yes, No and Any option)
Click on Search. You will see list of products.
Select products to assign to that category.
I recently wanted to bulk change / replace the category of products (with or without an existing category) to a new category "Expired". I created a CSV with the following fields:
sku,_store,_category
194337,,Expired
106025,,Expired
I then used System > Import and for Import Behaviour selected "Replace existing complex data". Select your csv file and away you go. Remember a re-index is required.
If you wish to wanted to bulk add a first or further category to products, create the same file as above but for Import Behaviour select "Append complex data". I.e. if a product had been in Category: "TVs" and you use "Append complex data" with the above file, it would now be in both Categories: "TVs" and "Expired".

magento magmi categories creation of the fly

I cannot create my products categories correctly on my magento store using magmi because my csv file is not compliant with magmi
my csv header is this:
Item Code,Price,Stock,Item Title,Category,Sub Category,Manufacturer,Part Number,Weight,Image,Warehouse,description one,description 2,EAN Number
SB-400-00,1.25,Sandberg Hard Back Case (Clear) for iPhone 4,Phones,Accessory,Sandberg,400-00,0.05,OR66300000242579.jpg,3,description one,Sandberg Hard Case for iPhone 4,5706595696
How I can play with Category,Sub Category to have the product in the correct subcat ?
I try with value replace but I have no positive result.
I try with On the fly category creator/importer no positive result too.
I have only the category without sub-cat.
Help will be appreciated.
You can configure a few Magmi plugins to format the data so that it can be processed correctly.
Make sure you have the On the fly category creator/importer enabled and the Tree level separator: configuration option set to / for the plugin.
Enable the Column mapper plugin and add Category,Sub Category to the Mapped columns list
For the Category field (in the Column mapper plugin), enter: category
For the Sub Category field (in the Column mapper plugin), enter: subcategory
Your column mapper plugin configuration should look like this:
Enable the Value Replacer plugin and enter categories into the Replaced attributes field.
For the categories field (in the Value Replacer plugin), enter: {item.category}/{item.subcategory}
Your Value Replacer configuration should look like this:
Click Save Config and run your import.

How do I sucessfully import a csv file to Magento using Magmi?

My supplier has provided me with a CSV file which contains all the products they supply. I am trying to import this in to a empty Magento Store (No existing Products or Categories).
When I try to import the file I get 39000 errors! All stating 'attribute_set defined 'however there is a column for Attribute Set.
Any help would be greatfully accepted as this is driving me mad lol
Thanks
Tony
Make sure that attribute set column header is attribute_set.
If it's Attribute Set in your CSV, you can use the Column Mapper plugin to map it to the correct header name.
Go to your Magmi UI
Go to the Configure Current Profile section
Check the box next to the Column mapper plugin, then click the Configure link
In the Mapped columns list field, enter Attribute Set (the column header value you currently have in your CSV). Now click anywhere on the page for the mapping area to appear.
A field New name for col Attribute Set will appear. Enter attribute_set as the value.
Save your Magmi profile.
This will map the column Attribute Set to the correct column attribute_set

Magento Mass Add Products

Is there a way in Magento to mass add products from say spreadsheet or word file or some other method? Im looking to mass add say 1000 Products even it was just the title and SKU anything would be helpful. I have tried the import and export but it freezes up and ends up messing up my database.
Any Help?
Magento Version 1.6
I think that the solution is to create csv file and then import products from it.
But be sure that you've create a proper csv file. Most import errors are because of errors in csv file.
Undoubtedly, the best way to get into the requirements is to have a model pattern. There is a simple way to get it. All you need to do is to export some products from your store into a comma delimited file.
To do that click System in your Admin Panel and then Export in the Import and Export menu. Then you are to choose products from the Entity Type drop-down. Now, the system creates a list of product attributes. All the attributes export into the .csv file, that is why you can click Continue to export the products you have selected. Now, you can open your file in any of your favorite spreadsheet application and use it as an example for your own .csv.
How to import csv file to Magento
There are several things you are to remember while creating your import .csv. Put every new product on a new line and the attributes which you define should be divided by commas. All the attributes should be in the same order as the first row.
In case you are editing your products in Microsoft Excel each product will be placed on a new line. The attributes which you define will fall into the column that is listed in the very first row.
Note that it is very important to select Yes (to leave out incompatible features), when Excel asks you what file format you wish to save.
This here seems to work it takes a while to setup the CSV format but will work.
