Import / Export Shops

The WPSD platform allows you to easily import your current shop listings that you save in a spreadsheet or stores you downloaded from third-party platforms. Once you do this, you can display them on your website.

To import shops, you will need to make sure your reviews are structured in a spreadsheet according to the following guidelines:

Import Shops file specification

The Import Export feature tool accepts data in comma-separated values (CSV) file format. The first row of the template or data file contains column headings. Each subsequent row corresponds to a custom review that needs to be imported.

You can upload a maximum of 500 stores in one file. Download the template file here.

Please note duplicate entries will be created, ensure you upload only new entries.

Columns:
