Import File Structure

General General Questions
1

Hi,

I was gave up by my developper and need some help to use the products import file; Once, it was structured with a certain quantity of fields and we now need to import new data to cs-cart: for example SEO names were not planned at the beginning; do you believe I can add some new columns where I want among the others or does the order of columns has some importance ?

By an other way, can we add fields (coluns in csv import file) as we want, as long as we respect the format of the field title of these columns and that they exists in cs-cart fields choice ?

Thanks for help.

Order doesnt matter

Capitalisation does and the field yes do have to match...

Set up a product in admin with all the info you need and export it o see how it is set up

JOhn

Hi, I did that but I encountered two problems:

- data export seems to be limited to 50 products (I selected all fields regarding texts - description, promo text, key words, meta descriptions.... and all texts used for referencing)

- in some fields (for example description), I wanted to add links and bold characters for some words but I don't find where changing font and characters color ?

In the case of links, font is smaller than text, and color is not visible enough: apparently, it's set somewhere for all links, but where ?

In the same way, how could we attach a video in this "description" field; we can attach a picture, the link for a video, but not a video itself ?

Thanks John and your friends for help !

No, if you do not select any product on the Products->Products page, all products will be exported. There is no special limit for products export

To add font colours etc via import you will need to add the html in the description field

Again, maybe best if you do one in admin, export it to see the formatting then copy it to other products and find and change what you need in the spreadsheet

Hi John !

Hi

this is the HTML code for my link, and it goes well. But I don't find where changing the color:

Сертификат http://www.france-de...en.com/ru/био/"target="_blank">био.

On the site, this code appears with :Сертификат био. where you can see that the word "био" (means organic) still stays blue and small; I wanted to enlarge it and change it's color.

May be there is in cs cart a standard setup for the links where color and size are configured by default ?

Do you understand ?

thanks for your interest in my question

Could you please provide us with the URL of the page where this link is displayed? Hope we will give you CSS code to make necessary changes

Hi;

ok, here an example of what I mean:

http://www.france-delicatessen.com/shopbackoffice.php?dispatch=products.update&product_id=3634&descr_sl=ru

This is the page where we are editing product data.

Is that clear ?

Add the following code to the CSS section of the Theme editor

#content_description a {
    font-weight: bold;
    font-size: 20px;
    color: red;
}

This should be added to each product ?

where can I found this CSS section ?

In Design, themes edit theme, choose css editor and paste in there.

No, it will add global rule for all links in the product descriptions
