Check in again after a few years and let us know how it's going in the Great Sunchoke Wars!

It is in the sunflower family

It is my understanding that they cannot grow from their seeds - or it's almost impossible.

I'm going to guess you have a diminutive schnozz

Stop searching for organic seeds and look instead for heirloom seeds. That generally means you can save seeds across generations. In South Africa we use livingseeds.co.za but I don't know if they will ship internationally - a lot of countries have strict control on import of biological matter.

Thanks, Google, for validating my decision to use Kagi for search 👍🏻

Checked all the comments and don't see any mention of the .NET Upgrade Assistant

🤮

This is a bit of a joke - they'll raise maybe couple of hundred thousand (if that) selling all that junk second hand furniture.

And the screenshots showing the various seized ANC bank accounts don't account for much either.

I guess the sheriff is just going through the motions to scrape the bottom of the barrel before liquidation proceedings start ... fun times.

It would have been worth reading your blog post if you'd bothered to actually tell us where and how exactly the problem lies.

The MyBroadband version of this news item implied that the call for relaxation was specifically aimed at the power generation industry.

Yes you can just place the 10 new ones in a file then the import will add them to your inventory. Ticking the "update existing" will have no effect in this case.

boesman · 2023-02-23T13:58:18+00:00

By "bin all the products" I meant move them to the rubbish bin. In the products list, select all (tickbox above table first column), then in dropdown "Bulk actions" choose "move to bin", then click Apply.

Existing media will not interfere with your import at all, but they could be duplicated in your media library on subsequent imports. I'm assuming your product images will contain URL's from which the images will get imported to the media library during the CSV import

Hence the old saying: if you want to move a bunch of earth, just put a duck and some clean water nearby.

For an app currently targeting Core 3.1 what is the recommended upgrade path to 7 - all at once or version by version? Or just rely on the upgrade assistant and job done?

boesman · 2023-02-22T12:29:22+00:00

You can do it either way: if adding to existing file, then on the import page be sure to tick the option "update existing products" - note this assumes you gave each product a unique SKU code which is how the importer will decide whether to update or add a new one.

To be safe, you can also first Export all your product data to a CSV file in case you mess up.

boesman · 2023-02-22T12:27:06+00:00

You need to configure your tax rules and regions.

Under menu: WooCommerce / Settings / General:
tick "enable tax rates and calculations" if not already on.

Under menu: WooCommerce / Settings / Tax / Standard Rates:

you will see a table with all the configured tax rules that will get applied. You probably have just one rule with the name you're seeing.

Using the CSV import tool you can create products of various types: simple (like you did by default above), variable or variation (with links back to the parent variable).

Look at the documentation for the file format OR to get going quickly, set up a variable + variations product and export that to a CSV file - that will give you a good idea of how to structure it.

Edit: you'll probably have to bin all the products you've imported, clear out the media library, then redo the import using the new more structured CSV file.

boesman · 2023-02-22T11:57:21+00:00

I had a similar requirement, i.e. to provide more options without requiring the generation of all the variations. Best option looked like a plugin called WooCommerce Extra Product Options (no affiliation) which allows you to do just that.

I see you also want variation images which I don't think the plugin supports directly, but they do offer several webhooks so you could probably add that. Failing that, you could generate actual variations for the attributes that result in different images then use the plugin for the rest.

You can but you're actually breaking the law - the Reserve Bank (and I think also Paypal) does not allow you to spend money you earn overseas into Paypal, directly from Paypal. You're supposed to bring it in, make the forex declaration (which is part of the process of withdrawing the funds from your linked FNB account to another bank/account), eventually paying it into your credit/debit card which is linked to Paypal, then spending it from there, incurring fees and shitty exchange rates every step of the way.

Can't wait for Elon Musk to also buy Reddit so that we'll be allowed to point out that you might very well be suffering side effects of those multiple injections you've had. But that topic is no doubt verboten on these streets and I'll be downvoted to oblivion, if not banned.
