Troubleshooting

Reviews not importing

If you are having trouble importing your Etsy reviews to WooCommerce, there are a few things you can check to troubleshoot the issue. Here are some common reasons why reviews might not be importing and how to address them:

  • CSV file is not formatted correctly: Make sure that your CSV file is formatted correctly according to WooCommerce’s guidelines. Check that all required fields are included and that the data is in the correct format. If the CSV file is not formatted correctly, WooCommerce may not be able to import the reviews.
  • Reviews are not in the correct language: WooCommerce can only import reviews that are in the same language as your WooCommerce store. If your Etsy reviews are in a different language, you may need to translate them before importing them into WooCommerce.
  • Reviews are not associated with the correct product: Make sure that each review in your CSV file is associated with the correct product in WooCommerce. If the reviews are not associated with the correct product, WooCommerce may not be able to import them.
  • Reviews are not in the correct order: WooCommerce imports reviews in the order that they appear in the CSV file. If the reviews are not in the correct order, you may need to sort them before importing them into WooCommerce.
  • Reviews contain invalid characters: If your reviews contain invalid characters, such as special characters or symbols, WooCommerce may not be able to import them. Make sure that your reviews only contain valid characters before importing them into WooCommerce.

By checking these common issues, you should be able to troubleshoot any problems you are having with importing your Etsy reviews to WooCommerce. If you are still having issues, you may want to reach out to WooCommerce support for further assistance.
