Content/Categories/Pages - Import/Export
The
Categories Import/Export function allows you to import or export the catalogue structure of your Web site. This refers to all of the structure elements and their properties, and how they are arranged in the catalogue structure. You can see a sample of an export file of this kind in
Figure 25.

If there is no entry in the Parent Object [Parent] column, the corresponding elements are assigned to the Home page.
When creating new categories via the import file the following columns are mandatory:
- "Type [Class]"
- "Parent Object [Parent]"
- "ID [Alias]"
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 other columns are filled in the import file, the values are entered for the corresponding attributes.
