1. Overview

Magento 2 Import Export CMS Page extension allows administrators to import a lot of CMS pages at once via a CSV file.

Admins just need to prepare a CSV file with all necessary information about CMS pages such as title, page layout, meta keywords, meta description, identifier, content, and so on.

Then they make Import settings like the default function, validate the CSV file, and start import CMS pages to websites.

Besides, this extension also helps to export available CMS pages by stores, and especially admins can select which data is excluded from export.

2.1.1. In Import Behavior

  • Import Behavior: There are 3 options for you to select.

+ Add/Update: This option allows administrators to add new CMS Page of the website. In addition, it also updates CMS Pages if these pages already exist in the database and have the same URL keys (identifier) as data in the CSV file.

+ Replace: The module will delete old CMS pages and then add new ones.

+ Delete: This option allows the system to get CMS pages based on URL keys in the CSV file, then delete pages that are available in the database.

  • Validation Strategy: Next, you select one option from the drop-down list to determine how the system operates when there are errors in the import process.

+ Stop on Error: the system stops importing when there are errors.

+ Skip error entries: the system skips errors and continues to import.

  • Allowed Errors Count: This setting allows you to choose the allowed maximum number of errors when importing. If the number of errors happening in the import process exceeds the maximum number you fill in this field, the system will stop importing.
  • Accept the default value of a comma (,) for the Field separator.
  • Accept the default value of a comma (,) for the Multiple value separator. A comma is the default separator in a CSV file. If you want to use a different character, please make sure that the data in the CSV file matches the character that you specify.
  • In case you desire to enclose any special characters that might be found in the data as an escape sequence, select the Fields Enclosure checkbox
