Re: csv update categories products are assigned to
That's what I'v been doing, and categories are getting merged. I can't see to overwrite them.
e.g. A product was in Category A. I export. In the csv file, I change it to Category B. Import. Now the product is in both categories.
Re: csv update categories products are assigned to
Ah...you want to UNASSIGN products from categories...
Do the same thing, but before you import adjust your product import settings. There is an option under the Product Import settings which allows you to "Replace Existing Categories Except When Field Is Empty"
So you would need to remove the category or categories from your CSV file then re-import it. It will replace you existing category assignments with what you define in the csv import.
I need to do something similar but this method of editing all the products from an exported list and importing would be crazy for thousand of products.
I have a list of products that I need to remove from a particular category. I do not want to remove all of the items from that category, nor do I want to delete and re-add the items, nor is it feasible to get a list of everything.
I am hoping for some kind of xml tag that is the opposite of <CategoryProduct_Assign... is there a <CategoryProduct_Remove or <CategoryProduct_Delete? I have tried both those (sometimes I find one not documented) but they don't work... anyone now how to start from a list of items that need to be removed from a particular category that has thousands of items in it.. and i only want to remove several hundred?
