Hi Mark,
I really don’t know where to put this topic in, so I just placed it in general discussion, as it looks like all the shopperpress datafeedr posts have been eliminated somehow. Anyways, what I noticed from all the posts I did read, is that people were trying to import their products from their datafeedr database, and kept getting timed out. I started to import my products from datafeedr, and noticed not only did the script time out, but while importing, my website would be down. (That’s not good). I went ahead and copied your datafeedr import class, and made some modifications, and created cron job file.
I did notice that when having nested categories, if the categories were the same name, they didn’t get created. For example, I have a category called clothing. It goes something like this:
Clothing->Men->Jeans
Clothing->Women->Jeans
If I ran your script, and it created Men->Jeans first, then when it got to Women->Jeans, it wouldn’t create. In that script I have fixed that, and it creates just fine now.
The advantage I have found with this cron job is, that I can navigate the website even if I am importing products from datafeedr. I have also added a feature to detect weather you want to update all of your products, or just add the new ones. That makes the script a bit faster, as it skips the ones that are already imported.
I’d like to give this script to you, so you can take a look at it, and see if something can be done to benefit other users of shopperpress.
