How to setup import and export in WooCommerce

Overview

All your export or import needs, to or from the WooCommerce stores are made easy with the import export suite. With the suite, you can easily import or export products, orders, users, coupons, subscriptions and reviews.

The plugin gives provisions for quick export/import, based on a pre-saved template or entirely a new import or export. You can opt for the desired method for import/export from the various available options. The import/export data are processed in batches, thus ensuring successful import/export irrespective of its size/count. Apart from that, there are several filters for facilitating custom import/export.

You can maintain multiple FTP profiles and schedules to carry out the automated import/export. Another peculiarity is its ability to provide detailed history, debug logs and cron schedules.

Installation and Activation

After purchasing the Import Export Suite for WooCommerce, the plugin will be available as a zip file in the API Downloads section of your My Account page.

Download the zip file from API Downloads by logging into your WebToffee My Accounts page.
Log in as the WordPress Admin from your online store.
Navigate to Plugins > Add New to upload the plugins.
The downloaded ZIP consist of a wrapper plugin(Import Export for WooCommerce) along with individual add-ons (Products/Reviews, Order, Users, Coupons, Subscriptions).
Initially, you can install and activate the import export wrapper plugin.
Next, the required add-ons can be installed and activated. Ensure that the wrapper plugin is activated prior to using it since the add ons works in combination with the wrapper plugin.
