Chad, that post was from December 2011.
It's kinda time to put the code into the Plugins section. ;) It will help minimize the confusion people have when not finding it where they expect to find plugins.
Re: EasyPopulate 4.0 Support Thread
I have a client who asked me to take over managing products on there ZenCart, and I am trying to get the EasyPopulate 4 to work. I do not see the EasyPopulate 4 option under the Configuration Menu, or Tools Menu after copying all the files to where I think they belong. The root of the site is /web, the admin folder is located at /web/catalog/admin, there is a temp folder at /web/catalog/admin/temp, and at /web/catalog/temp, and /web/temp. The store is located at /web/store, includes are located at /web/catalog/includes, and boxes/extra_boxes is under includes. Can anyone help me figure out why I do not see the EasyPopulate option under Configuration? Thanks. SunOS 5.10, PHP Version 4.4.8, MySQL 4.1.22, ZenCart 1.3.9d.

How do you change the length / amount of characters you can import in the different sections? It is cutting off a lot of my product descriptions without importing the description in its entirety?

The default for product description appears to be "text" which is 65K characters. Unless your descriptions are very long, look for problems in your import file.
The length of most fields are changed in the database.

I changed it in the admin section and it didn't make any difference on what imported. Can you direct me to the paths? Thanks!

I suspect you changed it in the admin -> configuration -> product listing section. That only affects the product listing description, not the individual product display.
I don't think, in any event, that this is an EP issue. I have very long descriptions and have made no description setup changes. I think you may have some code in your upload file that results in cutting it off.
Paste a full one into a product definition through admin. Does that one work?
Re: EasyPopulate 4.0 Support Thread
Yes, I think you are right! Is the import corrupted if quotes are used? (i.e. "word")?

Download a sample and look at it with a text editor.
The headings are not in quotes, all other fields are. What I suspect is that your description includes quotes other than those around the entire field.

Hi Doc!
Yes, I do agree. I've been so buried that I haven't done any updates even to github since mid-summer! I do have some days off coming up and will take time to wrap this up and submit. I guess it will never be "perfect", but I do try to get it close ;p
