Does The Bulk Product Creation Work On KS2

Hello, does the "Bulk Add Products," function actually working in KS2. I tried it several months ago, and an item got hang up in the database and after trying the to remove the item, I crashed the whole site. Is anyone successfully using the Bulk Add Product to add products current? An if so, how do your use correctly (Steps please if possible).

Well, it does install. The menu items are really hidden. To find them, I had to install it on a non-kickstart2 site.

Link to configure the module: admin/commerce/config/commerce_bpc

Link to bulk add products: admin/commerce/products/add-bulk

Note, you will need "bpc_taxonomy" (which comes with bpc) to be enabled to use it on a vanilla Kickstart 2.

Once I got it installed and found the creation link, I tried to bulk add drinks all colors.

/admin/commerce/products/add-bulk/drinks

I was able to generate 13 products, but the "display node" option failed to bring in any available node types.

So, the answer is: Commerce Bulk Product Creation supports Commerce Kickstart 2 for creating products, but likely has some bugs in regards to creating node displays. Still, this could easily save someone hundreds of hours.
