I have done a search for Easy Populate V4 and have 10 finds, nothing labelled Easy Populate V4. I have found one 'Easy Populate CSV' which I think is this one. anyway. it says you This will allow someone to add custom fields from the, configuration menu Configuration->Easy Populate->Custom Fields, no mine goes into tools/easy populate.
Am I missing something?
Am I installing the right one?
I would like to remove all traces of easy populate, any type that is installed.
Help
Re: Easy Populate support

Googled "easypopulate v4" first item off the bat is the forum that discusses it: https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....Support-Thread
The second is the primary storage area for the files on gthub at the moment (still requires some work to be presented as a plugin.): https://github.com/chaddro/EasyPopulate-4.0

HI,
Just got to the bottom of this problem. It is all to do with the custom fields that are built into the script. If you dont have custom fields then it generates the SQL incorrectly and you get the error message. You will need to edit the easypopulate.php file that sits in the admin root directory. Around line 560 is where the problem starts.
I dont use custom fields and dont plan to do so, so i have simply removed the following from the SQL
".$custom_filelayout_sql." on line 599 - 601. Ensure you remove the 2 quotes aswell as everything in between. Savethefile and re-upload.
If you want to use custom fields then this will not be the solution for you but atleast it has identified the problem so hopefully it will help
Many thanks
Paul
PS, its been a long time away from Zencart, but its great to be back!!
Re: Easy Populate support
So let me get this straight. For those of us who want to install this product for the first time we need to do the following:
1. Go to GetHub (https://github.com/chaddro/EasyPopulate-4.0), download EasyPopulate 4 and install that.
2. Next, go to the Zen-Cart Store (https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=868) and download the update and install that.
Is that correct?
Where I'm getting confused is the naming of the programs. On GetHub it's "EasyPopulate 4" but on Zen-Cart it's "Easy Populate 1.2.6". Are these the same programs or am I mixing apples with oranges here?

Apples and oranges...
Two separate programs. Whle some still use (try to use) this version, others have migrated to EP4...
