Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

hello I did a wrong thing with EP, I insert wrong prices for 200 products.
Now when I change and reupload the file with right prices, I see always old files, why?

Please :frusty:

So even if the data is originally captured on paper, carved in stone, scrawled on payrus, written with a stick on beach sand... the fact is that the data is created by a person.

So, by getting the data into a spreadsheet all you do is save a lot of time. Once you have this in spreadsheet format, saving it to Easy Populate formats is quick and straightforward.

The image you provide is OsCommerce... what relevance does it have to zencart?

I know its from OsCommerce is there a way we can make an add-on like this for Zen-Cart?

Why this version is using text file instead of excel. To me you have to through to look what you are looking for it wastes time. I just don't like it at all.

Ah, Text file known as .txt is a Excel file. Open the file in Excel.

It will not open up as an excel file.

Yes... of course you can. Zencart is opensource so you can do whatever you like when creating modules. When you've finished it, maybe you'd like to put it in the Free Add-ons. I have a couple of modules I built in the free add-ons, so there's no reason why you can't have some there too...

Not really correct...

A TXT file is a TXT file - not an Excel File.

TXT files can be IMPORTED into Excel, as long as you tell Excel what the delimiter is. (the FIELD delimiter).

The delimiter can actually be ANY CHARACTER - a space, a comma, a tab, a percentage sign, a semi colon...

Usually, the field delimiter in a TXT file is a TAB or a COMMA. (Though when it's a COMMA, it is usually saved as a CSV file (Comma-Separated-Values).

Unfortunately, we cannot give you lesson on how to use spreadhseets. Find a tutorial on the web.

I'm using EP to set up my shop-
I set it up working, with various attributes, with set prices, NOT '+' prices.

Then I downloaded the EP file, so I could see the way it laid out the attributes etc, and copied them for all the products I needed.

When I uploaded it all again, although all the attributes are now present on all the items, they are all '+' Prices.

Is there a way of changing this in EP instead of editing each product?

It would be nice if someone can make a module for the Multiple Products. I am not very good in PHP but I am trying.
