Can you show us the 3 two or three rows of the file you are trying to import?

[how to use Import Catalogue?]

Hi 

where are you importing from?  i.e. what is the source of your catalogue?

Cool.  Is the "inventory time" module available publicly?

What about swapping the colour dropdown for a mini image of the product?

Hi there

I have seen the Options Matrix and I was exploring the possibility of adding fields which are not customer facing which I could then use for exporting data.

Does the option matrix show up in any exports currently?

Ian:

Hi

Its not specifically for amazon but I think their parent/child flat file is a decent scheme.  What kind of timeframe do you anticipate with amendment to the plugin?

Also - has their ever been any thoughts to CC supporting multiple websites from one installation?  I

Hi

What Im trying to create is a true Multi Variation product with SKU and EAN and stock level support  

example rows

sku colour size ean stocklevel

shirt001-red-s red small 55669933456 5

shirt001-red-m red medium 55669933457 5

 I then want to also export this to various feeds.  i think at present im only going to be able to export the parent product record which wont have an ean - because it is the shell product without its paramters ( colour and size )

 

This can be achieved by extending the option matrix

but i think the better way would be to add a record_type field ( or similar ) to define if its a parent or child 

and also a parent_sku field to bind the children to the parent.   

i would then have to stop the children being visible at the store front as individual items

where record_type = parent

I think if i do all this maybe im going to cause a massive headache later on updates

Can you think of a better way of achieving this?

Hi

I want to add fields to the matrix which I can then use to export to google base. Ideally I want to identify Parent and Child products and also supply different image paths for Colour Variations.

If I do this manually UPDATE TABLE  and then some hardcoded php etc - will this problems for me in the future?  

What is the "correct" method for creating plugin mods for CC6?
