Bulk transfer of products, categories, and manufacturers to stores on Opencart eCommerce store
If you have already inserted the products and want to add the store in the Opencart eCommerce store, after this transferring the products to the store is quite tedious. You have to go to each product and check for the store and click save, to remove this tediousness, we have created the bulk transfer of products which helps in transferring the products between the stores of Opencart eCommerce.
INSTALLATION OF FILES:
1 Unzip in the folder.
2 Upload the files inside the bulk_transfer folder to your OpenCart root folder.
3 In admin, go to Catalog >> Bulk Category Transfer or Catalog >> Bulk Product Transfer or Catalog >> Bulk Manufacturer Transfer
4 vQmod is needed for the backend to see the Catalog >> Bulk Category Transfer etc
If you don't have the vQmod installed then you have to insert the following lines at admin/view/template/common/header.tpl
Just below the
and you will see the Catalog >> Bulk Category Transfer or Catalog >> Bulk Product Transfer or Catalog >> Bulk Manufacturer Transfer
5. When you click the Catalog >> Bulk Category Transfer, you will see two list of stores
Portal 1 or store 1 is from where you are copying the categories and portal 2 or store 2 is to where you are copying the categories.
After choosing the portals or stores, you will be able to see the list of categories that are not already in portal 2.
For eg. if Desktop is already in portal 2 then it will not show in the list.
If you don't want to transfer some of the category then unchecked the checkbox and click save. Unchecked will not be transferred.
In the above figure the software, laptops and notebooks and components are not transferred to the portal 2 or store 2
By this same process, we can transfer products and manufacturers.
