<h4>Features</h4>
<p>Frustrated that only the paid plugins would handle my various CSV files with different fields, I decided to write this plugin vs using a throwaway import script. Hopefully this will help others facing the same problem.</p>
<p>Simple flow-based approach:</p>
<ul>
<li>upload your CSV</li>
<li>check/adjust data will be imported how you imagine</li>
<li>auto-generate WordPress content from your imported data</li>
</ul>
<p>It shouldn’t need to be much harder than that.</p>

<p>The WooCommerce CSV importer plugin takes a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file as input. You must create a CSV (UTF-8 Encoded) file and enter the product details in a structured format.</p>
<p>This is to match each field of a CSV file to the field of a particular product, which otherwise the Admin needs to input manually. For example, the post_title field gets mapped to the product name, and the regular_price field gets mapped to the regular price of the product.</p>
<p>You can create the CSV from scratch or export products to get the format of the CSV. You can use a spreadsheet program, such as LibreOffice, Microsoft Excel, OpenOffice, or Google Sheets, to create and modify the CSV file. Save this file with the extension “.CSV.”</p>
<p>After entering all details about products in a spreadsheet, you can import products to your WooCommerce store. With this plugin, you can also export and download product details as a CSV.</p>
