You are editing the category from within the Admin, and unable to set the category image? Make sure you have the correct path set when editing. This is probably what your are doing wrong. Remeber that /images is assumed as the Main Directory from the drop box.Quote:

Under Category Export/Import Options select >> Categories Only (with Metatags)
Export for each store. Note that your category ID's will NOT be the same between the two stores, so you will have to copy/paste from one sheet to the other. If all your category names are unique, it may be easy.
TEST with just a couple categories until you know what you are doing.
Hope this helps!
I even manualy add the catagory pics via zencart admin and they don't show up, although the image is listed in the edit catagory page.
I also noticed I didn't want the quantity of products to show to the public and manual change it in zencart admin, it warns me that the option has been chosen yet they still show up in the store...............whay is the zencart admin not working?......does EP4 override it?

I have been having strange things happening since I added the products with it. I down loaded the info from my other site and the info is showing correctly on the admin. But during check-out the weight of the items are different and it is showing the quantity of items even though the admin warns that I have it not showing. I downloaded the CSV file to look at it and noticed the description column width is way too small and the data was overlapping the other columns?...........could this be a problem?
I tried making the descp. column wider but it will only go to 100cm with Open office......................what are other people doing who's descptions are longer?
I figured out the open office width problem but it didn't fix the issue. The shipping estimater shows the item weights 2lbs at the top of the box but the the calculation it show 1 x 5lbs and is chargeing more for shipping. The quantity is till showing to the public too.
For anyone with the same problems I figured out the weight issues....got to admin>config>shipping> set the tare weight to 0:0.
Anyone help with the quantity showing and the catagory pics not showing up?
Another update.........I got the product quanity to stop appearing.
The show prduct quantity option in the product listing area had no effect but if you go to Admin, Catalog, Product Type, Product - General and edit layout. Turn off quantity in stock and model. That should do it for you.
Hope this is helping people.........sorry for the posts in a row.
Hey Chadd - Im looking to start up on the auto populate (GET xml or CSV > populate) functionality for EP4. Where did you leave off on that?
ZC1.5
Can't get v_categories_name_2 to show up on my site using this add-on.
I used a Tab Delimited spreadsheet as a template.
Added 1 product.
Cat 1 is Apparel, Cat 2 is hoodies
Saved as a Comma Delimited Text CSV (Open Office)
Uploaded the file
Inserted the file
The product shows up under the main category but the new sub0cat (hoodies) does nor show up in the Categories Menu.
seriousoffroadproducts . com
Mouse over the "Apparel" heading in the categories menu and you'll see the Teeshirt sub-cat.
Click on the "Apparel" heading in the categories menu and the hoodie pops up.
Thought I had this figured out....but apparently not.
Anyone?
