Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

[Twaddle]

Actually, just ANALysing the categoreis, I guess it would be simpler to just create new main categories, then move and rename what would be the sub categories from within the admin panel... hmmm....

Yep, it's working this way, it's laborious and slow, but I have nothing other to do on a Saturday night than read internet s e x shops anyway

For the future though I'd be interested to know of a better way if anyone has any bright ideas?

I'm using version 1.2.5.4 and I'm getting the "No model field in record" error. FYI, I've created tab-delimited files using XML, not Excel.
I've even downloaded the sample file from Easy Populate and tried to upload that (since all of those fields should be correct) and I still get the same error. It appears that other people have had problems with this error as well but I've found no solution that works for me yet.

Any ideas?

I'm no expert on this, but I used Open Office to edit my file and had no problem whatsoever once I realised 1.2.5.4 is the way to go

Also, I'm not so sure that using the 'sample' file would work, isn't that just there to use as a guide?

AHA! I think I figured it out. I just needed to lead my products with the tab delimited headings in the txt file. Since I created my txt files with XML, I didn't include those column headings.

Use your phpMyAdmin to check the text encoding of your databases. You will need to ensure (using OpenOffice.Org) that when your import your txt file that you set it to the same text encode. I do not think excel is very good for honoring your text encoding. When you import into openoffice.org try both utf-8 and utf-16 to see when you get.


Per categories. I do not recall if multi-language support for categories is in 1.2.5.4 (or any version for that matter).

I fixed it. Admin Profiles mod has a patch or a single file that needs replaced. If you already have admin profiles installed and you upgrade it you have to copy the new file admin_control.php other wise you will not be able to install easy populate properly. The admin profiles mod will lock you out with out the patch.

I have one odd thing. I have 2 installations of zencart for 2 different sites. both identical installs. on one of my Easy Populate it says "Import from Temp Dir ()" on the other it says "Import from Temp Dir (temp/)" both work I just wondered why the one does not list the "temp" directory on the screen like the other?
