Start Part 1 - Download csv, Create Categories, Update Database
STCtoPresta admin backend was put under the Catalog tab. While in the backend, just click Catalog > STC. See full size attached image below the rating:
In this area you'll see 9 buttons with information next to them. We'll start with the first three!
1. Download xxx.csv
2. Create Categories
3. Update Database
Those three buttons will get you started and need to be selected in order.
#1 downloads the data feed you selected during the install process. Once the feed has been downloaded it also puts that file into PrestaShop's STC_csv data table that was created during the install process. This will increase the speed of adding that information into your Shopping Carts database.
#2 takes the information from the PrestaShop's STC_csv table and creates the categories for your Shopping cart.
#3 creates the Shopping cart database using the existing categories created by the previous button.
The next step is to verify the above procedures are completed. Open your shopping cart with the "Quick Access > My Shop" link at the top and you will see the categories that were created and the products in them. Now is the time to look closely at those categories and determine if you want to delete any category that you don't want to sell from. For example since catalogs can not be drop shipped you might want to ignore: "Catalogs Sales Tools & Promotion". Also since you'll want to keep STCtoPresta in "Update Only" mode so your SEO efforts are more effective. You may want to ignore any current Holiday category that STC might be using. These products show up again in their reqular category once the holiday is over.
To ignore any category and the products associated with them you need to click Modules > STCtoPresta >> Configure and enter the category you wish to delete from your shopping cart data base separated by colon (:). Changes in this area means STCtoPresta must be set to "New Database" mode so the categories can be ignored.
To ignore individual products you must use the product model number. The model numbers are CaSe SenSitive and must match exactly the CSV file listing! STCtoPresta doesn't stop the creating of ignored products, it just makes them inactive so they are not seen. This way you don't have to download images again if you change your mind about ignoring a certain product.
