Import vendors from CSV files

Hi @menni50, thanks for getting in touch with us.

Can you please provide us with additional information? Do those vendors have any products or do you just want to migrate the vendors only?

Just to keep you posted, currently, vendors can’t be added via CSV/Xls.
You can import bulk users via any WordPress export/import user plugin. But you need to assign the products manually to each vendor.

Hi
All this Vendors have products in another CSV files I wish to add the products to the site. Adding should be after adding the vendors, since the products should be related (connected) to the vendors.
Thank you

Hi @menni50, you need to follow this procedure :
– First export the vendors as a user and import them to your site
– set their role as “vendor” on your site

Now for the product part, currently when admin will import products, they can’t specify the “vendor”. As WooCommerce doesn’t support the Vendor role.

So, as a solution, the admin can follow this flow :
– Modify the CSV of the products per vendor and import that.
– After the import is done, the admin can use the bulk method, to assign the vendor with that products. As you can see here: https://www.useloom.com/share/8bba3d7317534d458d9eee17c3bef16c
– Repeat then steps for other vendors too.

Alternatively you can allow your vendors to import the products by themself in their shop directly by using our addon WCMp Advance Frontend Manager.

Let us know if you have any further queries.`

Sorry
I add few vendors manually I import from a CSV file products and all the products appear in the product section but I can’t update a product to connect it to a vendor. (The vendor field in the product editor is empty, although their are 3 vendors in the vendor list.) I would love to use your Advance Frontend Manager when it solves the import vendors from CSV files
Thank you
