Hi,

Suppose i import my old customes to store. All the customers have bought some products from my store previously.

After importing how do i associate the products to my old customers(i.e; What he bought previously)?

How can i come to know what product each old customer had bought if i don't associate?

Hi,
ProductCart does not have any features to support this. An order is a fairly complex set of database records, so it's exceedingly unlikely that it's worth the effort of creating custom code to achieve this.

Hi,

After importing users, how can i send login details (Email,password) to users in one shot?

Hi,
I don't recommend doing so, instead you could send a link to people to the page where they can retrieve the password themselves.
I, as a customer, would not be at all happy if a website I was registered with sent out my password details without me having specifically requested them.

Sending a link is much simpler as the same email can go to everyone and it's also more secure.

Means in login page user need to give his email id and he need to click on

Forgot your password? https://www.icmgworld.com/shop/pc/checkout.asp?cmode=2&fmode=1 - Click here to have it e-mailed to you. ?

Am i Right?

Hi,
Yes, that's the correct link. You can obviously use whatever text you like in the email though as in this case it's because you have moved to ProductCart instead of them forgetting the password.
