Import

On the import page you can import category data, product data and user data from a csv file. It is very important that the data in your csv file is formatted as per the instructions on the import page and the filename named accordingly. Importing data that is incorrectly formatted can prevent the cms from running correctly. Therefore it is recommended to backup your websites current data before importing any new data.

Importing Data

To import data from a csv file click the import button next to the csv file you want to import. You can upload a csv file from your computer to add it to the list using the file upload option however if the csv file is more than a few MB it is recommended to upload it into the cms backup directory via an ftp client instead.

Downloading a CSV File

Any csv files that have been uploaded are listed on the import page. You should already have a copy of your import files on your computer but should you need to you can also download them from the server using the download links.

Deleting CSV Files

You should not leave csv files on the server any longer than

necessary. Once you have finished importing a csv file you should

delete if off the server as soon as possible for security reasons.

To delete csv files off the server select the check boxes beside the

csv files you want to delete and click the delete selected button. Make

sure any file downloads have completed before deleting.
