Bulk Variation Image & Gallery Image import

Adrian Dalton

Good day,

We see that the feature to bulk import variation image and variation gallery images have been requested. Is it something that you’re currently working on?

We are using WP All Import Pro and the WooCommerce Add-on to update product information in bulk but struggling to add the variation image and variation gallery images as custom fields to import. Could you possibly assist/advise?

Kind regards,

Hi Adrian,

Currently, we have support for the default import/export option of WooCommerce.

I would recommend trying it to upload bulk images.

BTW, our plugin usages this meta key: woo_variation_gallery_images

I hope you will find this helpful.

Thank You

Hi Golam,

Thank you for your feedback. Do you have the knowledge base/guide to assist with the bulk import process using the default WooCommerce import/export. As time is of the essence, we would like to set up the bulk import process quickly and accurately and not leave room for error and delay.

Many thanks,

Golam Kibria

Hi Adrian,

If you manually add gallery images to a product and export it, you will find the meta on the CSV.

Upload the images to the media first.

You can add images like this and separate multiple images with a comma.

I have worked on the following test site:

https://wptestbox.com/adrian/wp-admin/
User: admin
Pass: qX46(5YfdID53VdTf!

You will find the CSV file in the media folder.

You can run your tests here too.

I hope you will find this helpful.

Thank You

Hi Adrian,

Were you able to make this work?

Can I remove the test site now?

Thank You

Adrian Dalton

Good day,

 

We are still in development and would kindly appreciate you not removing the test site.

Hi Adrian,

It’s alright.

Just let me know when you are done.

Thank You

We have successfully imported the variation image and gallery images now, but there seems to be a problem with the display. When you select the colour and size for that specific variation, the images shown, are not the ones that have been loaded on the back-end.

If you look at the following product as an example:

https://xtraclothingandshoes.co.za/product/unit-printed-vest/

you can use same login details if you have a minute to take a look at what I’m referencing.

Is this an issue, or are there settings we should adjust for the variation gallery to display the correct images?

Many thanks,

Golam Kibria

Hi Adrian,

Please check now.

The gallery option of your theme was active.

Thank You

Adrian Dalton

Thank you so much,

would you mind showing me where the Theme gallery settings were that you changed? Just in case i may need to edit again in future? Many thanks!

Hi Adrian,

Go to your theme option.

Follow this path: WooCommerce (Shop) > Single Product Page > Variation Gallery

Is there anything else I can do for you?

Thank You

Adrian Dalton

Yes, thank you. Test site no longer necessary and everything working as we hoped for.

Have reviewed your excellent product and service.
