-- HikaShop version -- : Business: 2.6.0

Hello, yesterday, my customer send me various test csv files to import products and categories to my site, and I found an issue with categories.
I have a book store, and I have 3 categories: Authors, Editors, and Publishers. And here is the problem, the same person can be Author , Editor and Publisher.
I did a test importing attached file categories.csv and hikashop generates correct categories tree:

Authors
|-Name1
Editors
|-Name1
Publishers
|-Name1

But when I want to import a product and assign the same name to Author and Editor for example I can't do it.
I do it manually in hikashop backend and works properly, I exported this product clicking in backend "Export" button and in "categories" field generates "Name1;Name1" but if I try to import from the same file, hikashop only assigns "Authors-Name1" category (I have configured filters for Authors, Editors and Publishers and only find the book in Authors filter).

Is there any way to assign Authors-Name1 category and Editors-Name1 category when I import products?
Note that I have more than 1000 books to import and this issue occurs frecuently, and I can't modify Names.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

The best will be to use the category is instead of the category name in the csv file to import the products.
