Hello,
Yesterday I spent entire evening and half of the night to find a way to import a simple category list and simple product list incl (product id, product name, price and product description) trying several CSV importing addons…

… and I failed

Would anyone be so kind and write a quick point by point importing guide, starting from which importing addon use, to how to work within WP to implement imported data in WPPizza.

Thanks a lot for your help.

as i already mentioned. it’s not that simple.
as a starting point , i would probably do this / start here.

a) create/add all categories you might need
should find something here https://www.google.co.uk/#q=bulk+import+categories+wordpress

b) create/add all mealsizes you might need (at least one)

c) create/add all additives (if any, you can also add them later)

have a look at the top of admin.setup.default.options.inc.php between approx line 4 and line 284 that deals with this when adding the default things on installation. you should somewhat figure that stuff out from there (might not need/want all of this in there….)

you can try to also do the categories there at the same time, but you will then also HAVE TO update some data stored in the main stored plugin data (though repairing categories in tools might also help afterwards if you do not do that)
