Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

I can't even do a partial...

Hmm... Im thinking, is HTML tags and code allowed in descriptions? I used to be able to use them.. But if i cant upload with descriptions, and i can without them... Then... Could that be the problem?

Where can I download a copy of Easy Populate. I have tried to download from the ModHole, but the link does not download a zip file, only a index.php file.

EP_v1.2.5.4.zip 90.42 KB 01/03/2006

Some issues I have experienced with ep:

can't download my database like before in ZC 1.2.7 using either EP2.7* or 1.2.5.

I used to be able to select entire categories using ZC 2.75, but this only allows me to export to temp file by sub category now. I have 43 main categories and many subcategories up to about 4 deep with 5500 plus products.

When I tried to download my entire database using EP1.2.5, I get error page 500. Would like to speed things up, but currently very slow and tedious operation is killing the time available.

Currently exporting to temp file on server with EP 2.75 in ZC 1.2.7 and downloading through FTP, editing and streamlining database; and uploading to new site ZC1.3 using EP1.2.5.
:down:

I've sorted something out

Using EP2.75a in ZC1.2.7:

Go to admin>Tools>Easy Populate - Create an export files

Select from dropdown:

save to temp file on server

enter product # in boxes eg

begin: 1 end: 1000 Limit by Products_ID(s)

Download file to your desktop using FTP

Now for the attributes arrrrghhhhhh!!!!!

and don't ever, ever forget your back ups!

When can we expect a version of EP that correctly handles attributes?

Also, is there a wiki or tutorial on EP attributes? Those are so VERY confusing:wacko:

Hi there (a local sydney sider!!)

Was there ever a resolution to Easy Populate causing repeated Admin logins. I have used EP and love it, but now I can't use it and can't remove it. I have the latested recommended files for EP and ZC.

Please point me to to the post that fixed this problem.

Thanks,

I use this method to kill/install EP:

I use Filezilla FTP, and open the local directory with the same version as on the server eg /include/languages/english/*.php and view both sets of directories. I then delete the files in their respective folders one by one or where possible all in the same directory on the server.

I then open the new version of ep 1.2.5 in Filezilla, and do the reverse of the above - either drag and drop one file at a time or whatever you prefer.

Do the install as required in admin->tools, and then configure in admin->configure

Use EP V1.2.5 with ZC V1.3.0.1. Mine has issues - sometimes prefers the upload direct from admin->tools->EP or upload to temp, and then type in the file name in its insert in db box. It also doesn't like to display what it has done and gives me the server error 500 code - but the work's done.

Hope this helps:D

hi Parafanaylya,
