Since my web server disk usage increases signficiantly running an import that only updates existing products, I am concerned it is happening. Are you saying it does not? That would definitely be preferred.

Thank you for replying, this is too expensive for the time, and I will consider it in the future.

I just see this as an option under Settings, to enable individually the "search in descriptions" and "search in model numbers" check-boxes by default.

Essentially, Settings to do this without having to edit the template files as described in this thread.

However, couldn't the import process skip those or throw a warning for a missing name instead? If I supply update in the action column, it could skip the name field entirely.

Thanks for sharing this detailed experience. It highlights that AbanteCart can handle subscriptions through custom extensions, but doing so may require significant development work depending on the business requirements.

I believe AbanteCart does not use any third-party PHP frameworks; the core is built on a proprietary architecture.
However, the frontend uses Bootstrap 5, while the administration area employs other UI frameworks.

Thank you very much for sharing.

I am happy to know that.

Hello,

The import supports both creating new products and updating existing products from the same file. Therefore, the CSV structure requires a Name column.

Use Promotions → Discounts, not Special — set a tier at quantity = 1 for that customer group. That tier shows on category pages too; volume tiers (5+, 10+) only show on the product page.

If it's still not showing: check the customer is logged in and in the right group, `config_customer_price` is enabled, and clear the product cache.
