I have 15000 products and 200 categories which I want to transfer from opencart to my new store developed in woocommerce , I did reseach and I found 2 plugins Cart2Cart and LiteExtension but those are expensive for me and I dont want to use a paid plugins or service, is there any way or script or solution that I get open cart products and import in woocommerce?
Not every shared web hosting account supports a high process memory usage. Therefore, if you use a basic shared web hosting account, no more than a few thousand products can be exported or imported at a time. Use a more dedicated web hosting account if a higher number of products are to be processed in one go. Or export and import multiple times in smaller batches.
I connected my OpenCart store to my ShipStation account. My orders were not importing properly. Tech support was not able to help. While I was waiting to hear from senior tech support, I found the problem. I'm making this post so that it might help others and to bring this issue to ShipStation's attention so hopefully they can fix the bug as well as update their troubleshooting instructions to include this issue.
Now that you have installed the bulk import/ export tool for OpenCart, you can begin using it to add or modify products in your OpenCart store. The first step is to export your existing products so you know how the spreadsheets work. Then you can add products to the spreadsheet offline and upload the file once you have finished.
Sorry for the problem with the spreadsheet. If this requires a custom fix, then you will need to speak with the developer of the plugin, or a programmer that can further assist you with the modification of the input fields. Please consult with the developer, or post a question in the OpenCart forum for further assistance. Check the readme.txt for detail documentation on the use of the importing too.
Have you checked your error log file within your opencart installation to find the exact error your website is giving when trying to import the file? If you could please provide the line giving the error so we may troubleshoot the issue more.
Hey guys, thanks for posting this handy article, helped me big time. Although i was searching for more efficient way, to import\export products. I found this tool in the web, not sure if this is OpenCart extension, or stand alone tool, but they have detailed documentation for these questions:
i have successfully installed and using this extension in my opencart theme 1.5.6.4 but what i am trying to do is now exporting my existing product / catagories data from 1.5.6.4 and trying to import the same xls file to my opencart theme version 2.0.1.1
First of all a very big thank you for the awesome work. I was able to successfully use the export/import for Opencart 2.0.1.1 by following the exact instructions mentioned. For installaing the extension I used the readme file provided with the zip file.
This may simply be an issue of no categories being associated with the products, usually due to an error in the import. To resolve it, it is usually best to just adjust the categories for each product.
As stated in our article on Installing the bulk import/export extension you must have VQmod installed in order for the extension to work. Please make sure you do that and then let us know if you have any other issues.
Thanks for the question and your patience. The problem has to do with the function (in PHP or MySQL) that is being used to run the import. It would need to include that value in the transfer. It may be a simple code change that you can make, but I am not sure where this value would need to be included. The author of the plugin, or OpenCart support should have an idea of where the change would required for the import function. I do apologize that I cannot give you those specifics.
When I do the initial import, the option pictures dissapear from all imported products and then I have to click browse to link them again to show up on each product. Could it be that the import does not read the header (image) on the options worksheet correctly?
My guess at this point is that the import function does NOT include the graphic path. Your best fix for this would be to contact the module author to see if they have a work around that you can apply to the function related to the import process used by OpenCart.
Hello Sofia, Make sure that the extension that you had installed is for the same opencart version you are working on and then check whether you had followed all the steps which use to be mentioned in the documentation in the .txt file which presents in the plugin folder. While you download the plugin from the website you will find that text file in that folder or you can find all the steps on that web page too.
In testing with the same version of OpenCart and using the same version of the extension, we are able to import and export without error. The error message you are getting specifically addresses a function in the PHPExcel set of files. This set of files is included with the extension. It seems it can find the files but is not recognizing one of the functions. I have no idea why that would be.
Apart from the 3rd party modules, you can also try using an automated migration service Cart2Cart. This solution is perfect for those users who wish to delegate the task to experts.Follow these steps to import the OpenCart info to another cart or the latest version of the current platform:
