Failed import – catalogue visibility

    I am trying to import products to a new install of woocommerce.
    The mapping during the import process is correct.
    However I am getting failed import as seen below.

    I have googled the issue and as far as I can tell the catalogue visibility option needs to be in all lower case. It wasn’t so I changed it and tried again. Despite all the ‘yes’ in that column of the csv being lower case I am still getting the below error.

    edit: I also tried using ‘1’ instead of ‘yes’ and still getting that error.

    I’d very much appreciate some guidance on this please.

    Import complete! Failed to import 33 products.

    File uploaded: products-3.csv

    Product Reason for failure

    AM-D5-T Amarok Dual Battery Kit , SKU AM-D5-TInvalid catalogue visibility option.

    ABG-25Auxiliary Battery Guard, SKU ABG-25Invalid catalogue visibility option.

    Fixed! I found out by looking at the sample file it needed to be ‘visible’

    Success !

    Hi @landyvlad

    I’m glad to hear that you’ve been able to resolve the issue with importing products to your new WooCommerce installation.

    Just to help others who might encounter a similar problem, here’s a quick rundown of the fix:

    During the import process, the ‘Visibility in catalogue’ field in the CSV file should be set to ‘visible’ for all products that you want to be visible in the catalog. This field is case-sensitive, so ensure it’s all in lowercase.

    Thank you for sharing your solution with us, @landyvlad. Your initiative not only solved your problem, but it will also be helpful for other users who might encounter the same issue.

    I’ll go ahead and mark this thread as resolved. However, if you ever have more questions or issues in the future, don’t hesitate to kick off a new topic.

    Hope you have a fantastic day!
