Hi! I can’t import all the products (830) because of gateway timeout error. with 20 records per iterations, only 40 records were imported; with one record per iteration, 212 products. How can I solve this problem???
Hi
Thank you for getting in touch!!
there are two ways to solve time out error.
1) decrease records per iteration.
2) increase your site php configuration max_execution_time and memory_limit
thanks and have a nice da
Thank you! Ok, the insert phase is ok now. Well, how could I Update only price and quantity of a product? These data are not under the Handle existing data / Choose which data to update…I need to add several data for new items, but update only price and quantity. Thanks
change product prices and quantity is easy then you think. please check http://plugins.vjinfotech.com/wordpress-import-export/documentation/updating-product-meta/ for better understanding

hello, how do i upload multiple images into a wordpress post?
Hi
Thank you for getting in touch!!

thanks and have a nice day
Hello,
I’m evaluating the free version and very close to buying the pro version. While testing I noticed that image metadata (Alt, caption, decription) is not imported. The images are already uploaded to media library. I’m importing a csv with additional data. The images are set as the featured images for the post but no metadata for the images.
Can you please let me know if I’m missing something?

Hi Vjinfotech – Can you please give a suggestion here. I want to sort this and make a purchase.
Hi
Thank you for interesting in our product
it’s issue and we already solved it. we will release update for it within 2 hours.
thanks and have a nice day
pro version update released. try demo not at https://demo.vjinfotech.com/wp-import-export/
free version update will take time up to 2 – 4 days
Hi, I updated and tried importing again but it is still not populating the images meta fields. Please let me know if can share more information.
Free version not release yet. Please try in demo
Hello,
Thanks. I tested in the demo. It does not seems to be working as expected.
I uploaded 5 images to the media library. Then I imported the csv with image data. The first time it imported only the first value and nothing after the comma. Eg: The CSV contains “Acorns, Oak nut” for Image Captions, only “Acorns” was imported. Then I tried removing the comma. This time it did not update the value.
Then I added new images. The third time nothing was imported. The meta fields were blank.
if your multiple image title separator is comma then it may happen. i am working on major changes about new and existing image meta. i will give you new update within 48 hours.
Hi,
I have one small issue. While all the custom fields get imported correctly, this also removes the featured image that I previously had on the posts. Is there a way to import data into ACF but still keep the featured image the way it was?
Thank you.
Hi
Thank you for getting in touch!!
feature image is gone because you update all fields. for only updating meta please refer http://plugins.vjinfotech.com/wordpress-import-export/documentation/updating-product-meta/

Hi, we use WP I and E plugin to export the Subscribers from Woocommerce. But seems that some FILTER fields are not taken into the account correctly while we want to set it. For example _schedule_end and _schedule_start
Please have a look on this example where we wants to find out who end its Subscription during last week: https://prnt.sc/ryeglkWe have a couple of the Subscribers who really ends last week, but it is not shown here. Can you please check?
Thank you, Tom
Hi
Thank you for getting in touch!!
date filter only show if any post date fields like post create date or modified date. other field only allow to compare values.
custom field have not specific date format data to filter. so custom fields are not allow to filter date.
thanks and have a nice day

HI,
1 / I still had a loss of the fields of a model
when doing an export (migrate package OR customize export file) but I did not manage to reproduce it. Besides, can you tell what the differences are because it generates the same file?
2 / I discovered the feature “Export the value returned by a PHP function” which is a priori interesting. I have not seen any documentation. Could you give some examples and tell me if it would be possible to transform recovered fields to a standard field
a) date change to dd/mm/yyyy from (2018-05-16 12:37:28)
b) to get to HH:MM:SS from (PT4M32S or PT12M55S -> 00:12:55)?
Regards
Hi
Thank you for getting in touch!!
1) migrate package generate same file but if any changes in post data then it may change. if you use old file then it may happen that some fields like custom fields are missing in field mapping
2) for Export the value returned by a PHP i will release document within 6 hours. you have to add function in themes function.php file or any other file that directly include. function name is same as you mention in field.
thanks and have a nice day
Hi, Little reminder. I really want to have a little tutorial (if possible with my needs) to finalize my export project. Thank you and good day. Regards
HI, +1 please
documentation for Export the value returned by a PHP function http://plugins.vjinfotech.com/wordpress-import-export/documentation/export-the-value-returned-by-a-php-function/
HI,Thank you, I understand the general approach.
1/You show a simple case. In this case, can we put it in the field without putting a function?
2/
Can you share with me the function of the transformation which is a little more complex in my 2 cases?
regards
function add_custom_import_date_format( $value ) { if ( empty( $value ) ) { return $value; } return date( “d/m/Y”, strtotime( $value ) ); }
for date format check https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
OK thanks for your help, it works. I can use your great plugin
Hi,
When i wan to export a list of products, the element Attribute Value has an option called: Export the value returned by a PHP function
What and where we have to put the function? Do you have any example to take a value?
Thanks
Hi
Thank you for getting in touch!!
i suggest add function in themes function.php file. if you need single value then data filter also available for filter any data.
thanks and have a nice day
Hi vjinfotech, do you have any example of any function?
Another problem I have is how to import an Excel with this case:
1 – The Excel has both ProductType simple and variable. Each variable has different variation. 2 – We have exported the Excel from the same tool.
I try to import with a different ways:
- Method 2 : Create Variations To Parent Based On Parent SKU - Method 3 : Product Variations Grouped By A Unique Identifier - Method 4 : Variations Grouped By Title
But don’t work, what is happen is that:
- When I finish the import the product appear with a disconfigured variations with a value of 0 and depending on the method a duplicate attribute appears.
The Excel we try to import is that:
http://foxnice.com/files/Screenshot_1.jpgCan you recomend me how import that?
Hi,
if you want to transfer data between WordPress site then export migrate package and import it. migrate package will automatically configure all things.
you can import both simple and variable product with any method. just add field for product type and map that field on field mapping.
please contact me from my profile page at https://codecanyon.net/user/vjinfotech and i will provide demo as soon as possible.
Hey!
Yes, but in the middle i’m interested in change the prices of the products, so i need to export that file in XLS and the option you mentioned there is in .CSV.
Is there any way to export Migrate Package in XLS?
Thanks
Hi,
This plugin it has made with a great manner because the interface is easy, simple and nice.
But for someone us me who wants to “change” the prices of WooCommerce it has some trouble to understand how to config the tool to export, change prices and import again.
We try several times the different methods but no one works for us, I’m sure we are doing something in a bad way but in this time we have to move, and what we discover is Woocommerce from itself it can export a CSV and you can work on it inside Google Drive.
After that just import this on the WooCommerce.
This tool don’t work for us because its complex to config but i’m sure there a lot of people who can use in other ways.
Have a good day!
change product prices is easy then you think. please check http://plugins.vjinfotech.com/wordpress-import-export/documentation/updating-product-meta/ for better understanding and if your problem not solve then please contact me from my profile page at https://codecanyon.net/user/vjinfotech and i will provide solution as soon as possible.
Hello vjinfotech, I’m sure its more easy than I think!
That’s why I said, but don’t know how to do it =)
For now i have solved as I said my issue using the native tools of WooCommerce, not with your plugin. But if you can explain me how to do it with your plugin will be great because i like how it works your plugin and the difference with the native WooCommerce import/export your plugin it’s more flexible and more powerful and maybe for other project it can bé useful.
I send to you some emails from the page you mentioned but not receive any response.
What I want to do it’s pretty simple, supose I have an WooCommerce with several items, some of them are simple and some of theme are variable.
1 – Want to export a XLS file 2 – Want to open with my Excel to change prices 3 – Want to import as a XLS with your tool
Your plugn allows me to make templates of importing and exporting, so after I have both templates works don’t need to do it more, so if you can help to config this templates it will be great.
Thanks again
i will definitely help you. we are process all mails one by one and all will get answer within 24 hours.
Hello,
We just buy this product an it looks awesome.
But don’t know how to do that:
1 – I export an Excel with the tool 2 – I change on my Excel some prices 3 – I import the Excel to the tool
What i want to do is just change prices, but i have product variable and product attributes and after seeing your documentation and videos thousands of times don’t know how to do that.
If you want you can create and save a type of export and a type of import inside the website:
Can you help me, please?

I see an update and tried to update the plugin, however I am getting the following error
An error occurred while updating WP Import Export: The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature

Hello,
I have installed and tried importing but getting the following error
[12:11:44] Record #1
[12:11:44] ERROR : Content, title, and excerpt are empty.
[12:11:44] Record #2
[12:11:44] ERROR : Content, title, and excerpt are empty.
[12:11:44] Record #3
[12:11:44] ERROR : Content, title, and excerpt are empty.
Update:
I gave some random info into content, title and excerpt. Then the feed pulled 3 test listings. However, the listing was created as a regular blog post than custom post so clearly not working… I clearly select the custom post from the drop-down on step 2.
On my website for the custom posts, I am trying to use this plugin, title, content and excerpt are not mandatory. For example, title is dependent on the listing so its generated automatically by the system and not manually. So please remove this requirement and also why is the plugin not working?
thanks
Also, the custom fields in the plugin should pull all the fields from the custom post automatically so we can just map the attribute that is relevant to that field. Otherwise what happens is one needs to remember all custom fields in a custom post, type each one of them and then map. please sort this otherwise I will just end up creating 250 custom fields manually. I know I can save it as a template and etc. but if you can sort this everytime we create a template it saves our time.
thanks

Hello,
Ok. I have emailed.
Ok. I received your email with a piece of code to put in functions.php, which allows me to create empty data. I will try that but you did not provide a solution to the other question I put forward, i.e.
The custom fields in the plugin should pull all the fields from the custom post automatically so we can just map the attribute that is relevant to that field. Otherwise what happens is one needs to remember all custom fields in a custom post, type each one of them and then map. please sort this otherwise I will just end up creating 250 custom fields manually. I know I can save it as a template and etc. but if you can sort this everytime we create a template it saves our time.
please add the feature to the plugin so it pulls the custom fields that are used on the post type we select on step 2.
thanks
we are already working on auto mapping fields. we are working on major version 2.0 and we will already include this feature in our list.
sounds exciting but can you let me know when this new version will be available?
I would not be able to progress until this feature is available.
thanks.
we have not fixed date for release. version 2.0 is in development state. we will try to release as soon as possible
ok. if you can’t get the auto mapping, at least the plugin should pull the custom fields as most of the user don’t even know the custom field names to type in manually.
thanks
we will definitely give minor release before version 2.0 for custom field auto mapping.
thanks I hope you release either custom field auto mapping or at least release an update where the custom fields are automatically pulled on Field Mapping Step 4 under custom field section and it will be easier to map the feed fields with the theme’s custom fields.
unless you release one of the above features I cannot even test your plugin.
thanks
can you please let me know your plans on providing this feature?
sorry for the chase but I have bought a plugin that is not serving the purpose. please If you don’t have any plans in updating the plugin to include the requested basic feature then I will apply for a refund.
thanks for your time.
we are working on major updates. many new major feature added but it will take some time for implementation, testing and documentation. most probability is first or second week of may
Hello,
now that we are on first week of May, any status update on the auto mapping for the custom fields?
thanks
we are already work on it. we will try to release update as soon as possible. it’s not included in version 1.6.0. we will release special version 1.7.0 for that.
Hi, I wanted to make an import woocommerce product with only 1 custom field, updating only that data but I can’t do it! Can not be done with this plagin? Even if I don’t put the placeholder in description, image, etc. .. but I only put sku, description and custom field, when I import it deletes all the other data! I only put SKU, DESCRIPTION, and COSTUM FILE! if I import, it deletes all the other data! Is this normal or is it a bug of the latest version?
I just need to update this field in woocommerce products with a unique SKU key. It’s possible? If yes, can you tell me how to do it or just where am I wrong?

Hello,
A few pre-sale questions. Does your plugin allow the following?
1. Import a feed to a user account? because my website has users who have their own products which they sell. So it is important for me to pull the feed to a specific user account.
2. When importing a feed for a user account, I don’t want to create duplicate entries. For example, a user has products from 1 to 5 and the latest feed has 1 to 5 plus 6, 7 and 8 products. So does your plugin append the products for that seller account or completely remove existing 1 to 5 products and add all products as new listings? If the plugin deletes all and adds it as new products then it creates new URLs which mean people who have bookmarked product URLs 1 or 2 may get an error as it’s not the same URL.
3. Does the plugin import images too? are there any file size limitations?
4. Can I create multiple import templates depending on the account on my website? can I automate these import schedules for each user account I have separately? for example, Feed A runs at 10 am and only updates user1 and Feed B runs at 11 am and only updates user2 products.
5. Does the system has a backup option every time it runs a schedule? just in case if it fails or ruins the website there is a backup to fall back?
6. Do you offer a money-back guarantee?
Please take your time to answer each point clearly as I need to know these details to make a decision.
Thanks for your time.
Hi
Thanks for interesting in our product.
1) you can easily give permission for specific users. plugin have inbuilt facility for it.
2) plugin not delete anything. plugin can update, create data based on settings that you choose. settings available for update or create data
3) plugin import images too. we follow WordPress standard for all data. so not own any limitation.
4) you can set multiple template but it’s common for all not user specific. you can set multiple schedule based on your needs.
5) if you set schedule export then generated file is your backup.
6) you get 100% refund if plugin not work for you.
thanks and have a nice day
HI, I sent you a rather urgent message, because I lost the configuration of my templates since the update. Besides, can you tell me (roughly) in which version? and when ? will be released the version with my requests for functionality regarding images? Regards
it’s version 1.5.8 and it will be release within 48 hours.
we are working on major version 2.0. functionality regarding images will be added between version 2.1 to 2.5.

Hi, is it possible to schedule .csv import/export for woocommerce users and orders? Also,n is it possible to import/export thoose .csv through FTP?
Hi
Thanks for interesting in our product.
schedule import / export is possible for woocommerce users and orders. schedule import is support only direct file and file via download from url.

thanks and have a nice day
please try plugin demo https://demo.vjinfotech.com/wp-import-export/
I can’t find scheduled import in the demo, only export has scheduled.
schedule import option available in step 5 check http://plugins.vjinfotech.com/wordpress-import-export/documentation/schedule-import/
OK found it thank you, though if I try to import products, he ask to insert content, title and excerpt, but shouldn it use the ones in the .csv? If I leave them blank I get error. I ask because I really want to buy this plugin but I got a little trouble make it import (though I do this often). Thank you
you have to map fields in step 4. check http://plugins.vjinfotech.com/wordpress-import-export/documentation/getting-started-with-wordpress-import-export/
Ok I got it, It wasn’t clear at first. Excellent, there’s just one last thing I want to ask, Is it possible to edit schedule? http://plugins.vjinfotech.com/wordpress-import-export/documentation/schedule-import/ It says that scheduling can be managed but there’s only the delete button, do I need to delete and remake the scheduling every time? I tried to make an export template but I can’t use it.
currently edit schedule not supported but we will definitely add this in future release. instead of update, delete current and create new one
Is it possible to create a single .csv for each order?
manually possible. but automatically not possible. you have to export each order one by one
just bought your plugin,m activated license, updated and still doesn’t work, after csv import the values are showing null. Not sure what is wrong, i tried changing theme and disabling other plugins but nothing works.
