I’m in the process of moving a site to CS-Cart. The cart has 3,600 products, and each has a few options. Most of the option types overlap (color, size, etc.). In the previous cart, we used global options exclusively, and that worked fine.
Here are the issues…
- Using the Import function, it seems there is no way to attach products to global options. So we’re stuck with product-specific options if we want to do a bulk import.
- Using the Import function, there is no way to create option modifiers (e.g. Size XXL is $5 extra).
- Using the Import function, and creating options attached to each product, creates an option variance table with 40,000 rows. I’m concerned about performance with a table this large.
So my question is, is there any way of doing a bulk assignment of global options and variants to products?
…and any other tips on managing options in CS-Cart would also be appreciated.
