Hey there!
Can you send the CSV you are trying to import here (using an online fileshare like Google Drive, DropBox, etc.)? That way we can look and see what’s going on.
Have a great one!
Hi and thanks for helping.
I created a test product and one variation in this file. I exported it from my bulk editing plugin and added another variation manually (row 4) by
1. copy/pasting row 3 to row 4
2. Deleted the id for row 4 added a fake SKU to row 4
4. Kept the post_parent id
5. Changed the attribute_pa_material to a value in the global attributes (the attribute name is exact, but it is not slug name since the export did not export slug name but the actual name in the global attribute.
On import I leave the “update existing products” unchecked since it needs to create the variation on row 4
In column mapping I am not 100% sure what to choose. I have tried many combinations on what to import.
I have chosen for example ID, post_parent, SKU and both attributes pa_material and pa_tryckklass since both are on the parent product.
I am totally lost and have spent an entire weekend trying to import these new variations for an existing product that already have a set of variations.
Would I have to delete the product first from Woocommerce or what is going on here? Thanks
Link to the csv I am trying to import
Google drive
In column AU do you need to put ‘variation’ as the product type for each of the variations.
Here’s the CSV template I have been using succesfully:
