Hello...

I have exported in 2 csv files one for virtuemart categories and one for virtuemart products...

I import both csvs to my new site but when i open an imported product the product categories field in product information tab has not the correct categories and subcategories that the product belongs to...

i attach the csvs for categories and products export...

i mentioned that when i export the categories in english from export template (thats the right way because in the old site the product categories are in english) and if i try to import those in new site it ends with the failure message COM_CSVI_NO_CATEGORY_PATH_SET without ever starts to count for import proccess...

if i export those in greek language it ends the import without problem but it meshes up the categories(the wrong categories that i wrote above in my previous post).....

how can i import the english version without that message???

i attach english version categories export csv ang error log

Hello,

If you want to import categories for multiple languages, it is needed to read the Setting up a VirtueMart multi-language shop

So it would be better to clean out all the categories and do a clean import as described in the tutorial linked.

If English is the only language you use it is interesting to see your data is in Greek :)

imported product the product categories field in product information tab has not the correct categories and subcategories that the product belongs to...
You will need to remove the category_id from your file, always use the category_path field. You shouldn't be using any fields ending with _id unless you know what you are doing. In your CSV file the first 675 products have no category path.

Using the category_id will cause the wrong categories to show up.
Kind regards,

RolandD
