Hi,
I have been porting a store to woocommerce (first time I've used it), and since there is no product import in the base software, have been importing csv files for pots and posts_meta via phpMyAdmin.
The first batch of 200-odd worked fine, but a second batch are not being recognised as published (woocommerce is showing All(676) Published(205), but not giving me any access to the unpublished items. Not sure what was wrong with that batch - a case error in a field possibly?
I've since successfully imported a small test file (2 products), but haven't been able to get any of the unpublished fields recognised by editing records in MyAdmin.
Would I be right in surmising that woocommerce only looks at new database records to see if they are a product? If so, am I best to delete all those record and reimport them after checking the data?
And can I import to the same record IDs? (so the thouands of associated records in posts_meta will still work).
