Hi
I have tried to create a custom CSV export template in ISC 5.0.6, to include the URL for the product (ie. http://www.domain.com/products/product-name.html) and the URL for the image (thumbnail or full size image, eg. http://www.domain.com/product_images/d/dog_thumb.jpg) - but there is no option to include the URL's.
I cannot find the URL's in the CSV to import into other software (price comparison sites).
Is is possible to export this data into CSV format? The Google Products Feed in Interspire includes this info - so why can't I include it in regular CSV?

Re: Product and Image URL in CSV
I'm just shooting from the hip ... not having a single CLUE about how the Google Feed works (what's included, its format, etc).
BUT... would it be possible for you to take the Google Feed and re-work it so that it becomes a CSV file with the info you need?
Perhaps import the Google Feed document into an Excel file and then re-export it into a standard CSV ... AND it will have the product image URL's.
Again... this is just a wild guess, but perhaps a direction that you might explore.

Re: Product and Image URL in CSV
We got all our data into Interspire through an SQL dump, had a few teething problems so wiped the database clean and started the installation of Interspire from scratch. So, we now have a clean Interspire installation, 5.0.6.
I have created a single product, and filled in some test data.
The Category Details is shown in the Exported CSV as:
"Category Name: MySubsection, Category Path: MySection/MySubsection"
The product is viewed via MySection > MySubsection.
When I delete this product within the Admin, and Import the exact same CSV, with a row added below, incrementing product ID by 1, and adding new product specifics (name, description, price, etc, but NOT category) the product doesn't import, citing 'Missing Product Category' as the error.
I have used 'Yes, includes Headers', field separator is a comma (,) and field enclosure is an inverted comma ("), as default anyway. Category is matched to Category Details.
Conclusion: Interspire CSV's do not work, at all.

Re: Product and Image URL in CSV
I believe there has been a lot of derision on the Interspire export/import module not actually working...
If I'm right there's already a few comments about this on the main Interspire forum.
