vidmarc Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Before starting to create a database and import everything from scratch, I've managed to obtain an export of the original eCommerce site, which was running on a non-supported cms. Is it possible to import this data into the Cubecart database? It would save us a lot of time if it is possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Obviously, not directly. CubeCart has a few "Importers" where, by way of an XML file, will map the source applications database column names to CubeCart's Inventory table column names (Magento's 'sku' column, for example, maps to CubeCart's 'product_code'.) Currently, CubeCart's Product Import feature does not parse through the source file. Instead, CubeCart relies on PHP's fgetcsv() function -- which implies the source file must be in the "standard" CSV file format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Butter Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Would it be possible to create an empty database, import the file to it, and then download that as a csv file? Of course that's assuming you have no way of downloading the original as a csv file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
