Re: Easy Populate support for Version 1.2.5.4
All I want is where you can select pruducts from one category to another. Like for an example.
lets say Category 1 has 20 items.
I want to move about 8 items from Category 1 to Category 2 at the same time. Then move 5 products from Category 1 to Category 3 at the same time and so forth.
Re: Easy Populate support for Version 1.2.5.4
I am starting to get the hang of this, but I have a problem. When I download the full EP to edit after I did some few changes. Then why my Products prices are different then orignally. Like for an example:
I have a candle that I am selling for $7.95 and it changes to $28.90 it change all my products prices how can fix this so I won't to go through indvidually?
I need this solve ASAP

Is there someone standing behind you with a gun saying "Use Easy Populate or I will shoot you." ?
You don't have to use Easy Populate if you don't want to. I have been using it for 5 years (across various versions) and have successfully populated over 100 webshops - many of them several times over.
If I were to add up the number of products uploaded and downloaded over the years, it would probably be close to half a million data items...
I have never had a problem with EP, and as I say in my WIKI tutorial, problems can usually be traced back to the operator, rather than the software! :D
Re: Easy Populate support for Version 1.2.5.4
Well when I do a full download and change my prices like it should be then when I upload the full it chages the prices on me. Why?
Re: Easy Populate support for Version 1.2.5.4
Is there a way to change the Always Free Shipping option?
I don't see that item in any of the EP downloaded files unless the column titled "shipping" in the Froogle download is it. ( I didn't think it was since it was blank for all of my products and I have them set both ways.)
Can a column for that option be added to any of the EP CSV downloads? If so what would be the name for that column?
(I searched the forum and found this question ASKED many times but never could find an answer.)
Re: Easy Populate support for Version 1.2.5.4
You're in luck...
The following field:
product_is_always_free_shipping
is part of the PRODUCTS table, so you can add this field to Easy Populate.
I have done this with other fields in the products table, by following this thread:

bkeaton,
very sorry to hear you are having so many problems with EP. However, it is very hard for us to help you unless we know just what you are doing, meaning:
1. exactly which version you are using -> use 1.2.5.4 for the fewest problems! (but not issue free!)
2. what program you are editing your spread sheet in
3. if you've modified the data type in the cost field -> specifically, if you make it "currency" so it displays a $ dollar sign, on export this will not import correctly. Leave it as type 'general'
4. what operating system you are on: mac or pc
5. post some of your sample data for us to check -> yes, a portion of your excel spreadsheet!
Also note that this is a free mod with free support. And those of us that do try to help do so on our own time and dime without any compensation and as time permits.

After I added it that way I saw an option in the admin section for EasyPopulate that is called "Custom Products Fields" --- the description from that menu reads:
Custom Products Fields
Enter a comma seperated list of fields to be automatically added to import/export file(ie: products_length, products_width). Please make sure field exists in PRODUCTS table.
Would that menu do the same thing?
