Hello, I'm attempting to migrate a huge Virtuemart shop to Hikashop using the import tool.
My store has nearly 10,000 products and over 300 categories.
It only imported my first 100 categories. Exactly 100. There was no error but it missed over 200 categories.
Is there a limit to the amount of categories it can import? Or perhaps there is a limit with the free hikashop version?

I'd like to purchase Hikashop Business but I wanted to see if my import will work first, and I'd first like to see how well Hikashop handles a huge product database.
Thank you for you help.

-- HikaShop version -- : just downloaded HikaShop Starter 2.3.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.2.3
-- PHP version -- : 5.3.28
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : updated Chrome

Hi,

10K products shouldn't be a problem for HikaShop. We have users with a few million products and it starts to get problematic.
Regarding the import of the categories. I checked a bit the code and it seems that there is an issue with the VM import above a 100 categories.
Replace the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/helper/importvm.php by the one in the archive below and that should help avoid the issue (note that it might create duplicated categories if you do it over your previous import instead of on a clean HikaShop).
