Categories in CS-Cart are created one at a time. When there are hundreds of them — at launch, after a migration or during a restructure — that is weeks of work. Through a spreadsheet the same thing takes one import.
What it does
- Bulk export of categories to CSV — all of them or a selection.
- Import that creates new categories and updates existing ones.
- A unique category code used to match data during import.
- The category tree structure is preserved.
- A single status for categories created by an import — «Hidden», for example — or the values from the file.
- A backup before the import: the structure can always be restored.
When it helps
Initial catalogue population, migrating a structure from another store, bulk updates — search parameters across every category, for instance — and error fixing, when changes are needed in dozens of sections at once.
Support and updates
The import and export procedure is covered in the documentation. Six months of free updates, questions through HelpDesk.
FAQ
What if an import goes wrong?
A backup is created before the import — the original category structure can be restored.
How do I update existing categories instead of creating new ones?
Through the unique category code: if it is present in the file the data is updated, if not a new category is created.

CS-Cart development · in-house team · since 2013 We build, upgrade and speed up CS-Cart stores and marketplacesAnalysts, developers, designers, QA and support under one roof — no subcontractors.

Two add-ons that change how a store performs
Everything else we publish improves one screen. These two change the numbers: how customers find products, and how often they come back.
|
Add-on · Search & merchandising Smart SearchElasticsearch-powered search for large catalogues. The customer types two letters, sees products with images and prices, and buys from the dropdown — even after a typo or with the wrong keyboard layout. Visitors who use the search bar are 24% of traffic and 44% of revenue, and convert about 2.5× better than people who only browse categories. If search returns nothing, up to 80% of them leave. | ||||||||
| ||||||||
Try it on a live catalogue: open the demo store and search with a deliberate typo. |
|
Add-on · Mobile commerce PowerApp — mobile app for your storeA native iOS and Android app running on your CS-Cart data: the same products, prices, stock, promotions, reward points and orders. There is no second catalogue to maintain — everything stays in the admin panel you already use. A mobile site brings a customer in once; an app brings them back for free. Push notifications replace the retargeting budget you spend to buy the same customer a second time. | ||||||||
| ||||||||
Screens, block types and pricing tiers: see how the app is built. |
Services
When no add-on solves it, we do the work
Fixed scope, written specification, a named project manager and a warranty on what we ship.
|
Custom CS-Cart development Functionality the platform does not have: add-ons, marketplace mechanics, integrations with 1C, CRM, ERP, payment and delivery providers. We start from a written specification, not from an estimate on a phone call. Details → |
|
CS-Cart upgrade Move to the current version without losing data, custom code or add-ons. We audit every modification first, upgrade on a staging copy, adapt what breaks and switch over with little or no downtime. Details → |
|
Speed and performance optimisation Conversion falls by about 4.4% for every extra second of load time. We profile the server, the database and the front-end, then fix what actually costs the seconds — and show you the before-and-after numbers. Details → |
|
Design for CS-Cart Mobile-first storefront design built on CS-Cart's own template structure, so the layout survives the next platform upgrade instead of becoming a migration problem. Details → |
|
SEO for CS-Cart A technical audit of indexing, duplicates, redirects, structured data and Core Web Vitals — delivered as a prioritised fix list your developers can act on, or that we implement ourselves. Details → |
How we work
What you get besides the code
|
Before we start We discuss the goal, offer options and write the specification. You approve scope and price before development begins. |
While we build A named project manager reports progress on a fixed schedule. You always know what is in work and what is next. |
|
Before release A separate QA pass on every release — the developer who wrote the code is not the person who signs it off. |
After handover Documentation for everything we ship, plus a warranty on the modifications and the project. |
Tell us what the store needs to doDescribe the task in a couple of sentences and we will come back with options, a scope and a price. The consultation is free, and we will say plainly if a ready-made add-on already solves it.
