I am trying to install EP 4 as I guess I had the wrong EP installed the first time. Anyways I have it installed and I am getting the error
"Easy Populate "Uploads Folder" missing!
Your uploads folder is missing. Your configuration indicates that your uploads folder is named temp/, and is located in /home/firstcap/public_html/".
I am trying to locate the temp/ folder on Filezilla and I cannot find it. Am I looking for something different or what do I do to fix this problem. I see in the install.txt that it states to
"Now go to Configuration -> Easy Populate 4 and edit the Uploads Directory. The default directory is "temp/"
This assumes you have a directory "temp" in the root of your website. I highly recommend that you
move your temp directory into your admin, or change the name to something that is obscure for security reasons."
What do I change it to since I cannot even locate the temp/ folder. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
I think you must create the folder. Just name it "temp" to see if that works. Then you can move/rename it.Quote:

Is there a way I can fix this? Or do I need to replace all commas? (that would be a lot of work!)

Easy Populate 4 seems to be working great but I'm having a vexing problem. I've successfully imported my products but when I go to edit an individual product, I make a change click on preview, and then don't have the Back, Update, or Cancel buttons on the preview page. I do have the option with products I've uploaded individually; otherwise I would think the problem is elsewhere.
I've compared the query strings from a manually-added product and one from Easy Populate, and there is no difference other than the category and ID of the product.
I've turned on strict debugging and looked in my logs but there are no errors to give me a clue. It seems as if not allowing me to edit the product is set somewhere and I don't know where to fix it.
I'm running on a cPanel VPS with Zen Cart 1.5.1, upgraded from 1.3.9h. Everything else is working just fine.
I've been trying to find a way to 'escape' the comma - and have had no luck. So I just deleted all of the contents in the description.
There are now no comma's anywhere in the csv file.
When I try to import I get "No model field in record. This line was not imported" over and over - no records import.
But I have no idea why...
What now?
Thanks!

I haven't any trouble with commas as long as they are encapsulated inside quotes. I'd make sure you are using LibreOffice's Spreadsheet program.
If I'm not mistaken, the docs say that one must provide a model name or the import will fail. I just put the product's category name in there. I really don't think it matters what content is in that field so long as it isn't empty. Hope that helps!
As Hermes says, you don't need to escape commas; just a field with a comma inside it must be enclosed in quote marks. Chad had a post somewhere that related to what character set is used. Something more than the problem I suspected is wrong.Quote:
