Add costum fields using a CSV file

[r_guayaquil]

Hi,

Is there a way to add the custom fields information to each product using a csv file? A have a lot of products to uplaod and adding that information one by one in the dashboard is a lot of work.

I added a test product with some custom fields and exported it as cvs files to see which fields i will have to fill in the file to upload the custom fields information at once, but it doesnt show the fields for the custom fields.

How can i do it with the csv file?

Thanks for the help

Hi,

Custom fields are product meta field, so you upload those using CSV. WC Product Importer support this.

Thank You

Hi,

As i mentioned before i created a new product with the custom fields, and exported it as csv file to see all the fields to upload the information at once.

I am trying filling the csv file with all the product information including the custom fields. I am using the column header as “meta: precio con envio” which is a field i created.

But once i upload the csv file, the custom fields dont show in the product detail page. I have to do it manually one by one.

These are the fields i have created:

Group name: datos_adicionales
Field name:
-Precio_con_envio
-Tiempo_de_entrega
-Formas_de_pago
-Garantía

HI,

Group name: datos_adicionales
Field name:
-Precio_con_envio
-Tiempo_de_entrega
-Formas_de_pago
-Garantía

– Do not create custom fields as Group. Keep as simple.

It will be exported.

Thank You

Hi,

I created the custom fields as simple as you suggested. I created one block that include all the custom fields, and i disabled “Fields as Group” checkbox.

I was able to export the csv file with the meta column header but if i upload it, the custom fields still dont show in the detail product page. Please see image 1

This is what i have:

Block name: Datos Adicionales
Fields as Group: Unchecked
Fields:
Precio_con_envio
Tiempo_de_entrega
Formas_de_pago
Garantía

Why is that?

Thanks for the help!

HI,

Do you have added any value for this product’s custom fields?

https://wclovers.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/image-1-2.jpg – First is Block name, what is second? Is this value of any of those 4 custom fields?

Add this line to your child theme’s functions.php if you do not want to show “Block Name” here –

add_filter( 'wcfm_is_allow_custom_field_block_name_display', '__return_false' );

Thank you

Hi!

I have added values for 2 products. It shows in one product but not in the other one. I exported the csv file again and it seems like the custom fields have repeated themselfs. Please see the file attached and help me fix it.

Now I have to check the “Fields as Group” box if i want the custom fields to show in the product “Proyector Samsung”, If it is not checked they dont show. Please see image 1

This is how i have set it up:

Block name: Datos Adicionales
Fields as Group: Unchecked
Fields:
Precio_con_envio
Tiempo_de_entrega
Formas_de_pago
Garantía
