I try to import category alias using slug field.
Recreate alias set No.
It need me to remove time date stamp that Joomla set for same name categories.
Nothing happens, categories alias set by Joomla not by me.
Please help me. What I do wrong?

Hello,
Looking at your debug log the alias is set as imported by you. It's a little hard since I don't speak a word of Russian
In your file the first row is: детская мебель\держатель для балдахина;derzhatel-dlya-baldakhina;derzhatel dlya baldakhina.png;200;1
This imports 2 categories, the parent детская мебель and the child держатель для балдахина. The parent category will get the slug from Joomla and the child category will use the slug derzhatel-dlya-baldakhina. Later on in the file you have specified your own slug for детская мебель so the slug is updated to use your slug. I see in the log it already has your slug.
You may need to figure out where the alias comes from. Perhaps the menu?

I made very simple example on my site:
http://test3.233747.hoster-test.ru/
Access for it sended to you privately.
For import categories I use OUR_VirtueMart_Category_import template.
csv file is already on server and set to template.
The file contain only 4 lines:
category_path;slug;published
детская мебель;test-slug-1;1
детская мебель\держатель для балдахина;test-slug-2;1
держатель для балдахина;test-slug-3;1
But my aliases doesn't set.
I tried to set my aliases manualy at category page, it possible. It mean that at least my aliases correct.
If it need I can send log file.
It is difficult for me to answer for this question.
VirtueMart categories are shown as menu at position 7 on site.
I'll be very grateful if you can help me.
