Are you a current Bonanzle store owner? You can import your products to Storefront Social by taking your RSS feed and converting it into a CSV! Just follow the few simple steps below creating the CSV from your RSS Feed:

  1. Go to your RSS feed page. Typically in the format of: http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/rss/USERNAME for Bonanzle Users, others give you a URL where all your product data is available to you. If you're not sure, contact your ecommerce provider and ask them for your product feed in XML or RSS format.
  2. Right Click on this page and view the page source code.
  3. Select the entire content, and copy.
  4. Open Microsoft Word and paste the entire contents.
  5. Now Save as an XML Document.
  6. Open Microsoft Excel and open the XML document.
  7. Now you will be able to see your entire RSS feed organized per header--format this to match the Sample CSV provided by Storefront Social and go to the My Datafeeds page and your import will take all the items from your current CSV and populate them all!
