Thank you, Marius")* Hi, You need to see how you can export the products information as a CSV (or maybe you already have a CSV ?) from redShop. Then, you can use the import screen to add them automatically (after changing a bit the header of the CSV ): [ www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...hikashop-import.html](http://www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentation/73-hikashop-import.html) HikaShop works with sh404sef. Now, the structure of the links is different between redshop and hikashop so they won't be the same.

Thank you, Marius")* You need to edit your CSV via excel and remove the columns you don't need and change the name of the ones you will use: product_name is the same product_price => price_value product_number => product_code product_desc => product_description published => product_published product_full_image=> images category_name => categories (you will have to change the values to only have the name of the category and not the whole category path) Then try again. That should work a lot better. You can import categories separately yes. Just have a CSV like this: parent,categories cat1,"subcat1,subcat2" subcat1,"subsubcat1,subsubcat2" ...etc...

Thank you, Marius")* There are no manufacturers in hikashop. What users do usually is that they have a set of categories for them (that way, they can create a list of manufacturers on the front end, using the standard menus and modules of hikashop) So you would have to add a main manufacturer category with one subcategory per manufacturer. Then, you can just add each manufacturer to the products (you can have several categories for one product).
