 I am in the process of changing my site over from oscommerce to ubercart. I am struggling with the import feature and would like to update my products on a daily basis. I convert my feed into a compatible ubercart xml file. It appears to import all the items but it orphans them all. Does anyone have any insight as to automatically creating categories for the products. I am working with about 200 categories and 200,000 products. Thanks,

Checkout the end of this thread, see if it helps http://www.ubercart.org/forum/support/4483/importing_new_list_productspr...
node_import
Yes, using the drupal node_import module with the ubercart's uc_product.inc works well. see: http://drupal.org/project/node_import uc_product.inc is available somewhere in this forum. The only issue I found with node_import is that I can't import the images. There is a cck images patch to fix this, but I could not get it to work.... See: http://drupal.org/node/143471
Re: node_import
Did you try the latest incarnation of that patch? http://drupal.org/node/143471#comment-786257 I'm not entirely sure how to load a patch myself, so I'll play around with it a bit.
Re: node_import
I got image import to work with an old version (1.2) of node_import and konsumer's original patch. This works wonderfully, except I have never been able to get taxonomy terms created under the catalog term through any import program... good luck
Re: Product Import
Well, I have always got taxonomy to work with node_import 5.x-1.6. The taxonomy term should be a column in the csv file, and I map this to "Taxonomy: Catalog" during the import. Multiple terms can be separated by pipe "|" sign in a csv file, assuming your fields are comma separated e.g. assuming you had products that could be classified as Term1 & Term2, then in the Taxonomy field you should have: .....,"Term1|Term2",...., [see the readme.txt file unde modules/node_import] I am running Taxonomy 5.7. & Taxonomy Menu 5.x-1.03 with drupal 5.7 So the only outstanding things for me are: 2. Speed - see my support request on:
Re: Product Import
By the way, I just tried the image cck patch again on node_import 5.x-1.6 and got it to work! A few comments: - you then need to edit the patched content.inc and make this change after finding line with unset($node->$dummy_name): - images need to be placed in the files directory, under your drupal installation. - in the csv file, put name of image as a separate field e.g. if image is files\image1.gif, then only put image1.gif in field - during import, map the image field to the "Image Fid (field_image_cache)" field. After this it worked for me... I am using ImageField 5.x-2.0-rc8, and all the Image modules 5.x-1.8, ImageCache 5.x-2.0-rc2, cck 5.x-1.5
Re: Product Import
There is only one instance for me... after applying the patch. Using node_import 1.6 Also, I used this patch: node_import_imagefield_support_0.patch Did not try latest patch or any other one....
node import for ubser cart with images
We did all but still unsuccessful , we are using Druapal 5.8 with node import 1.6 , image cache and other all image modules and we end up in white screen can any one help or give us the content.inc Great Help's Really Helps
content.inc
I have attached it, but note that I am using: - drupal 5.7, ubercart 5.x-1.0-rc4 - ImageField 5.x-2.0-rc8 and all the Image modules 5.x-1.8, ImageCache 5.x-2.1, [all not officially supported by ubercart...] - cck 5.x-1.5 - php 5.1.1, mysql 5.0.18 - it also depends on your version of php etc. So I wont be able to help debug any issues or give further advice... So you are using it at your own risk. Thanks.
Thanks for the info.
Should
Thanks for the info. Should I be seeing the images on preview? I noticed on node import I have an option like Product:Main Image. Although setting the file name equal to this did not help so I am trying as you suggested by putting filename into imagecaceh fid
Success
I can confirm that
Success I can confirm that I successfully imported images with your content.inc and I could not see the images on preview, yet once imported all was fine Cheers,
Re: Success
I can confirm that
I added SKU support here http://www.ubercart.org/contrib/5221#comment-23004
Re: content.inc
I would really like to know what I should put in the csv file as file name, and where to place the files when importing with these files. For now the fields just get empty when importing the filename into the _fid fields. Another semi related issue: I made boolean fields for a single checkbox in the product and I placed 1's in the csv file (non quoted). These got lost as well. When entered in a text field it went ok but in the long run I fear this will bite me in the proverbial tail. edit: so the source images are to be put in the /files directory but the system is a bit whacky when Drupal is installed in a sub sub sub directory... 
Re: content.inc
Great patch! The multiple terms import doesn't work for me. My fields are separated by the pipe sign, so for a field "Year", my data would be something like "2006|2007|2008". The field is a Text Field and not a CCK List since CCK lists don't seem to import. My field separator is a tilda "~", but looking at the content.inc code, this doesn't seem to matter.
hierarchy terms
Hi Everyone: We have the Catalog taxonomy that is common in in ubercart below it our structure looks like this (baby clothing store) and I'm trying to get 200 products loaded but I'm getting stuck at putting it into the right term area. Currently it ends up both in "Baby boy and Baby girl" when I use the csv structure as followed: Category layout: Baby boy Thank you in advance |
