General Process For Getting A Store Up Options

[Pradhan]

Hi and thanks for being here.

I have a question as to the general process for getting a store up and running.

I have installed successfully the avactis store with demo data, and I am following along the manual (which could be better!: Note to Ilya!).
In general, is the process one of using the demo store and slowly replacing the content with live content? Then removing the demo content?

For the catalog, should categories be created BEFORE an import file is created, or will the import file create the categories on the fly?

Thanks for your help,

Pradhan

Hi!

I think it's up to you how to change the store content. If you prefer changing the demo data to yours, follow this way. If you like creating everything from the beginning, delete the demo data first.

For the catalog, should categories be created BEFORE an import file is created, or will the import file create the categories on the fly?

The import process creates categories on fly.
