roroPrestashop Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Hi Everyone I have a huge list of customers from a different platform and I need to import them into Prestashop. The trouble, and I assume you know, that the customers data is split into a few tables (well, at least to "customers" and "addresses", btu then there are groups, etc). How am I supposed to do this, while making sure that passwords, addresses, etc will match correctly? Are there modules for this? Or external services perhaps? Even a customers module could be a solution Please help! and Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthMoore Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Which platform do you import from? Some Prestashop migration tools can help you this work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicmaster Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 It depends how the passwords are coded in the old shop. If that is done well it is a one-way street: you can encode a user entered string into the encoded string in the database, but you cannot reverse the process and derive the original password from what is stored in the database. In that case you will need to ask your customers to reset their passwords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roroPrestashop Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 RuthMoore - it's from nopcommerce and and old one. It seems like it isn't exporting the customers addresses as well. So I may have to dive into the database to get everything. But then the problem is splitting that data somehow into the separate tables inside Prestashop and making sure everything cross references correctly... Really annoying that for some reason those tables are separateed inside Prestashop. Which services are available? Are there also non-automated services as well? musicmaster - yes, I'm familiar with those concepts regarding the passwords. I will have to run a test to see if it's the same encryption method...

RuthMoore Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) As I know LitExtension, Cart2Cart ... has this service. But I don't really know if they can transfer password correctly. Edited June 15, 2016 by RuthMoore (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roroPrestashop Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 Thanks RuthMoore. Indeed LitExtensions seems like they know what their doing. (but I haven't used them yet!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to run a test to see if it's the same encryption method... I don't expect that will help. Every shop has its own keys - as defined in your settings.inc.php.
