Using Product import export plugin, you can easily export or import products with images. However, the plugin WooCommerce Additional Variation Images allows you to add additional gallery images per variation. On exporting products with these additional variation images using the product import export plugin, each image’s ID will be exported. It is obvious that users might face difficulty in identifying each image using its ID and may result in ambiguity while importing. Therefore, in order to get rid of this issue, you can insert the below-given code snippet into the functions.php file of the active child theme.
On using this snippet, instead of image ID, the name or URL of the image will be exported enhancing the convenience in identifying the variation images while importing.
Similarly, you can use the below code snippet to achieve compatibility with the WooCommerce Additional Variation Images plugin while importing product with variation images.

Hello there, I am using the woocommerce additional variations plug in and I desperately need to import variation images with CSV.
Does this code work only for your importer plugin or is it possible to get the standard import suite to export/import the image link instead of the picture ID?

Hi,
The code snippet is developed exclusively for the WebToffee Product import-export plugin. You may please purchase the WebToffee plugin to import additional variation images to the products using the image URL.
