Hi there,
Yes, one of the ways you can import the new products and the featured images associated with those products is by using the CSV importer/exporter tool: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/product-csv-importer-exporter/.
Also, here’s the wiki on how you can set up the CSV file in a proper way so that all your product items (images, attributes, metadata, etc.) are imported properly: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/wiki/Product-CSV-Import-Schema.
I hope this helps.
Thanks for the info.
I’m not convinced regarding the importation of images though. How would this work exactly? Obviously I would have to upload the images to my media library but each product must have a path to a product image.
Hi @maccready,
This section of the documentation provides the necessary guidelines and even has a section dedicated to images – https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/product-csv-importer-exporter/#section-2
You can either put the full URL for each image in the CSV file which will cause the image to be imported into the media library or upload the images to your media library first and then provide just the filename(s) of the image(s) in the CSV.
I’ll go ahead and mark this thread as solved now. If you have any other questions, do start a new thread.
