Note: Some functions in the application will open in new browser windows. For this reason, your browser must allow pop-up windows to open. Otherwise, certain functions cannot be used.
Import/Export of Content/Categories/Pages
The Categories Import/Export function allows you to import or export the catalogue structure of your Web site. This refers to all of the categories and pages and their properties, and how they are arranged in the catalogue structure.
When creating new categories via the import file the following columns are mandatory:
If no further data is specified, the categories are created using the corresponding alias and specified type and are sorted accordingly into the structure. The default settings are used for all other required data.
If there is no entry in the Parent Object [Parent] column, the corresponding elements are placed directly under the Home page.
Import/export of category/product assignments
When category-product assignments are imported or exported, the assignment of products to categories is also swapped in or swapped out. The assignment of products to categories is defined here.
In the import file, all the columns from the export file are mandatory.
Caution: In order to perform a category/product assignment import, the products used and a corresponding catalogue structure must be available. If you make this available per import, you need to first perform the product import and the category import, and then after this, the category-product assignment import.
