Added weight and weight unit now hika wont import
-- Joomla version -- : 3.1.5
Before I could upload CSV easily to uppdate products now I added weight and weight unit and now it wont work! I checked with an import example so that the columns would be correct and so on.. (I have kg as product_weight_unit) maybe that could be the issue.. so help if anyone knows any solution

Wouldn't it be because the max execution time of your web server is too small and thus HikaShop doesn't have enough time to finish the import before reaching the limit ?
You should look in the PHP error log of your web server for the fatal error message. That will tell you if it comes from an execution time limit and if so, you'll have to see with your hosting company if they can increase that limit.

Do you have an example file ? A link to your website ?
We don't have trouble with the CSV import in our side but we have our test files so we are not in the same case as you.

If you want to upload a CSV file, the best is to put it in a zip file. The "CSV" extension is not allow in Kunena uploads.
It is strange that you can upload via the text field and not via the upload. It uses the exact same code, just that the upload read a file uploaded and text field read a text submitted.

I don't understand your message.
You still can't attach your CSV file here ? We need it in order to test and try to reproduce your problem.

I don't understand what you're saying or trying to do.
Why "insert text" ?
I am sorry but we don't have trouble to add attachment here and a lot of users post their CSV files here too (but they compress them in zip files).

Please make sure that you give a link to this thread so that we know why you're sending the file.
Regarding the import, you're saying that it works fine when you import via the textarea, and not via the upload of the file. But behind that, the processing of HikaShop is exactly the same for both function so it really doesn't seem to be related with the import but more with the upload of the file to your website.
I understand your frustration, but please note that there is no need to write in upper case and it is against the netiquette.

Looking at your CSV files, I can see that you're using the character ~ as separator.
That is not a valid separator.
HikaShop's import system only supports , ; | or tabs as separators.
So it's normal that the import doesn't work with the CSVs that you sent us.
And I don't see how it would work with the textarea or the starter edition since neither support ~ as a separator either.
Are you sure that you sent me the correct CSV files ? Are you sure that you are always testing with the same files ?
So as far as I can see, the solution is to use a valid separator in your CSVs and it will work.
