Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

I have uploaded all the files for the eas populate but I notice I am getting an error when i try to log into my admin area:
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/divabou/public_html/Catalog/admin/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/easypopulate.php on line 202. How do I clear this error I have went already to the file to check it out but I am still getting the error. Please help someone!!!:shocking:

Check you have uploaded this file!

Is it possible to use easy populate to bulk upload other product information?

I installed a module that allows me to add a separate price that only appears when the product is added to the cart.

I can only add this price manually where you add/edit products in zen admin.

here is a link to a product I enabled the module - I am looking to add the price that shows up in the cart to the easy populate feed so I can upload a separate price for several products at once.

Any help would be greatfull!

is it possible to upload v_product_description_1 without having to use the *full* txt file?

I had 3 items already in the db prior to doing this and they are the only 3 showing.

At the bottom of the upload I got this message and I am NOT sure if it is the reason why nothing is showing.

Next to last line reads:

Any help on this WOULD be much appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.

it is probably b/c you have an extra blank field at the bottom of your file...

yellowdaises :- You need the whole product information, meaning:

v_products_model v_products_image v_products_name_1 v_products_description_1 v_products_url_1 v_specials_price v_specials_date_avail v_specials_expires_date v_products_price v_products_wholesale_price v_products_weight v_date_avail v_date_added v_products_quantity v_manufacturers_name v_categories_name_1 v_categories_name_2 v_categories_name_3 v_categories_name_4 v_categories_name_5 v_categories_name_6 v_categories_name_7 v_tax_class_title v_status EOREOR

so if you upload a edited product with just 'v_product_description_1' and all the rest of the columns empty it will not import as it does not have a 'v_products_model' to assign the product too. If you just upload with 'v_products_model' & 'v_product_description_1' again it will error as it needs price, category,eoreor etc.

You do need to give all the fields to update the product because if you leave any others out it will overwrite the information in the database. Its is updates all the fields.
So just download the complete file open in excel delete the products that you do not want to update, alter the product field and re upload. ( remember to keep the header ).

Re RSprinkel's problem this was happening as he did not have a separate v_products_model for each product:-

product
product
product

should be :-

product1
product2
product3
etc

:yes:

Hello Nicolas,

finally found some time to participate to your tiny little support thread:D
Fine tool, I use it for months now...

BUUUUUUUUT!! Please try to fix the stupid issue regarding the master category.
I am using v1.2.5.4 (have the advanced but don't use it yet)
The master cat is not updated (inserted) in new data import, so I have to do manual work to have this correct.
It is an issue which does not allow other mod's to work properly.

IIIIIIIIF there is already a fix, I appologize :blush: ..could you point me there?

Take care

You should be able to import the file again and it will re - import all the dates and times etc.

Are there any other settings in the easypopulate tools in the configuration menu that effect this? I still can get it to work. Can you please confirm the column header for me too? cheers

Sorry my mistake, you do not need the seconds this is taken from a downloaded file of mine

v_date_added
11/11/2006 17:54
11/11/2006 17:54

I have this set up for the UK date format in my english.php file

Quote:

---

define('DATE_FORMAT', 'd/m/Y'); // this is used for date()
define('PHP_DATE_TIME_FORMAT', 'd/m/Y H:i:s'); // this is used for date()

Try and download your full complete txt and open in excel and see what format it gives you ?

Sorry to change the subject. Where can I download a sample file so I know what is required to upload? Thanks
