Guest Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Can I use osCommerce for store with over 10,000 products in serveral categories or should I look into some other solutions? How would I upload that many products? I read somewhere that easy populate can only upload 300products at a time without time outs.... is it true? Thanks in advance.

I read somewhere that easy populate can only upload 300products at a time without time outs.... is it true? Thanks in advance. Hi, I have a few stores and one of them quite often has 2000+ products (adult site - http://www.adulttoycupboard.com) No matter how many products I put on there I never see a performance decrease. Perhaps a few tenths of a second if a simple search was to be performed. I have written an excel macro that copies the data i need from my wholesalers spreadsheet to the EPA spreadsheet (this is the Easy Populate Advanced spreadsheet) and I must say it was very easy to do. The file is uploaded to the server as 1 file and split into chunks of 300 products once on the local server disk. You simply then select each of the split files, 1 at a time, and click import. I can import my entire catalogue from start to finish in about 2 minutes now. Many thanks to the guys and gals responsible for Easy Populate - I couldn't work without it!!!
