Background of the issue:
I have Dutch and German products on my site hidden link. I imported them using wpallimport. I want to enable a feature where clicking on the German flag while viewing a Dutch product will display the German version. The products share the same SKU.
Symptoms:
I need to synchronize products between Dutch and German versions based on SKU.
Questions:
How do I synchronize products between Dutch and German versions using WPML?
Here is the ticket. I will need to closely examine your website. Therefore, I will require temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to a test site where the problem has been replicated, if possible. This will enable me to provide better assistance and determine if any configurations need to be modified.
Please note that it is important to have a backup for security purposes and to prevent any potential data loss. You can use the UpdraftPlus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) to fulfill your backup requirements.
Your upcoming reply will be treated with confidentiality and will only be visible to you and me.
✙ To resolve the issue, I may need your consent to deactivate and reactivate plugins and the theme, as well as make configuration changes on the site if necessary. This emphasizes the significance of having a backup.
If you still can't manage to solve this, create a staging site with minimal data and we'll do some test import with around 2 - 3 products with two languages for a test.
Oh! Yes, i saw that option, but since the dutch part of the shop was devided in about 14 different imports, i can't match it to one comparable import. The new German one is much bigger and contains almost 60K products. I was hoping that there was a way to connect the products with the same SKU's afterwards.
Feel free to have a look in my dashboard: hidden link
It looks like you might have to configure it correctly. Moving forward, could you create a staging site with minimal data so we can do some test import with around 2 - 3 products in two languages?
Well.. This IS the staging site for musicdeals.nl. I cannot make another staging site because I don't have enough recourses. I would first have to copy this site and then remove 120000 products. But.. My server won't let me.
So the only thing I can do is make a new website with a few products, but I guess that is not the same.
So, I won't mind if you try it on my current staging site, I do have backups!
Alright, I'll give it a try. However, when I reviewed the WP ALL Import Manage import list here: hidden link , I only noticed "Thomann DE FULL," which appears to be the German language products. Could you upload the English products so I can review them?
All the other imports you see, are Dutch, it's a Dutch website. Together they contain the same products as the 1 German import, I just devised them into more imports for speed.
So the Dutch products are the base ones, they should not be changed and the Thomann DE FULL should be connected to the existing Dutch ones via sku
i'm wondering.. what are you going to test? Is there another way to sync those products besides this option during the wpallimport import: Automatic Record Matching to Translate. (i guess by hand, but that's no option for me since the amount of products)
If not, how do you want to connect them / test that?
