easy populate

[Andy c]

I am about to blow a gasket  
why oh why can't I do this
I've tried "v_products_model" this is what it says when I download ..I've tried "v_model" plain model exporting to to file csv file taken from site although had another record come up

here is more examples

I'v sent ye a PM with a csv file attached, have a look through that file and give it a try uploading it to your site, see if there are any problems,
if you run into the same problem with that file, there must be somthing wrong with the EP mod,

it should work fine though, if it does, use that file as a reference

hi
yeah got the file thank you and it worked first time ..although a few at the bottom were missing product model numbers so just threw in a few numbers and they updated fine
I'm off to bed now so will look again tomorrow night after work and try work out where I'm going wrong ....
thanks for helping out ..it is really appreciated

no probs Andy,


bear in mind though, that csv file isnt up to date, theres stock on there that isnt available any more, so best just using it as a reference

I'm running on a free server with a scottserve web address ...he wont be best pleased if I start selling on it lol ...and I wouldn't do it either .he has been very helpful

[Andy c]

after trialling and getting many many many errors I think I have finally solved the puzzle ...Well I am managing to get it tto upload multiply times after changing and adding stuff .So will just keep the template for future reference and use it all the time................ now on to my next problem 

[seamus]

well, any other problems ye run into, fire up a post about it, and we'll see if it can be sorted

just found out that since I updated my site ,it seems to have added "Price/Special/Sale" to every item in the shop so that the prices are wrong ..even though I have no added this into my csv .. and can't seem to find out how to get rid of them easily

Hi Andy

Didn't know whether to start a new topic but it seemed relevant to this post! and wondered if you could advise

I am using zencart V.1.3.9h and want to use Easy Populate ( well try too!) and not sure what version to use...also noticed there are free versions and paid for?

Hope you don't mind me asking!

Many Thanks 

Lesley

try this 1 as it is the latest http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=1633 
wouldn't pay for it as free is good enough
