Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

[oavs]

I am sorry but I am totally lost. I have zipped one of my datafeed and one of the sample datafeed came with the EP. If you can do two lines for me please so I know what to do with the rest.

So close yet so difficult. You think read me would be little more clearer about the most crucial part. Installing running it fine yet I can not use the thingy so little help would be much appreciated.

Thanking you in advance.

PS I can't see my zip file on the forum..where did it go?

[oavs]

Sorry about this but here is the zip again.

Looks like uploads not working. Here is the small sample of my datafeed. If someone could put it in a EP format so I 'll know what to do with the rest. Thank you.

Ive installed Image Handler 2 and Easy Populate. Both are working fine but now when I go to my Admin/ Categories Products, none are displayed.

If I use Easy Populate I can import products and they appear in my store front, but not in my admin.

oavs, did you look for the txt file in the temp dir? Did you look at the EasyPopulate entry in the Tools menu in the Admin area?

[davewest]

davewest, I believe it does create the categories that you mention if they aren't the db already. I think I did a test that showed me that.

oavs, you can do a simple test with a single product first, with a new category, and see what happens.

EPA will create, EP wont. There is a difference between the two, I'm using the free one EP. That's what I fond. I'm using it update, add and delete products.

[prosam]

I am going to use EP to upload over 8,000 products to my site and even though most product images will be named according to their product number I'm sure there will be some that do not get named correctly or are not found at all so I would like the no_image gif to show up instead of a broken image.

I know there has to be a modification done to the zen_image function file I'm just not sure how, I'm not much of a php coder, I can understand it but cannot write it. Something like if image not found display no_image.gif

I can't even find the zen_image function file for the life of me.

When i install my site live i get this;

Warning: require(includes/modules/category_product_listing.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home1/clearmag/public_html/admin/categories.php on line 639

Ok I found the answer to my question and here it is if anybody else needs it. This worked in ZC 1.3.8 not sure about the older or newer versions coming out.

In includes/functions/html_output.php after

//auto replace with defined missing image
    if ($src == DIR_WS_IMAGES and PRODUCTS_IMAGE_NO_IMAGE_STATUS == '1') {
      $src = DIR_WS_IMAGES . PRODUCTS_IMAGE_NO_IMAGE;
    }

Enter the following:

	if (!file_exists($src)) {
      $src = DIR_WS_IMAGES . PRODUCTS_IMAGE_NO_IMAGE;
	}

This will replace any broken product images with the no image file.

Yes, I did . Can you tell me what am I supposed to be looking for? There are text files as per original installation.


After I upload my datafeed file, I get this message on the bottom. Then what ?
