Hello Kostas,

is it possible to only import new products to VirtueMart?

Virtuemart product import in CSVI is based on product_sku field. If the value in product_sku field from your import file is not found in virtuemart products table in database CSVI inserts a new product, if product_sku value is found the product is then updated. So you can try importing new product_sku values for new products.

Kind regards,

Hello Kostas,

In your import template set the option Overwrite existing data to No. This will leave existing records untouched and only import new products.

Kind regards,
