easy populate all my prices show 0.00
Hey,
I just downloaded EAsy Populate (I'm trying the free version first) At any rate, I downloaded the sample contents to see how things should be written. I then made my headings the same and entered all my data in excel and Saved as Txt I uploaded and was pleased to see that the products were in my store. How ever when I click on an item look at it there is no price and when placed in my cart it says it's $0.00. This is a problem seeing as I can't give my products away no matter how much I'd like to . Any idea what may be the cause?
Here are my product headings if that helps. They do show up as 1 lnie on my screen.
v_products_model v_products_image v_products_name_1 v_products_description_1 v_products_url_1 v_products_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_tax_class_title v_status EOREOR
Thanx in advance

Is it only your easypopulate products that are affected?
Have you entered any products normally? Do they show correctly?

Re: easy populate all my prices show 0.00
yes, It seems to be only the easy populate items. the few I entered manually are showing up just fine
Re: easy populate all my prices show 0.00
You're probably missing some master_categories_id settings and maybe it didn't calculate all your prices correctly.
There are two buttons in Admin->Tools->Store Manager to do that: master-categories-id reset, and reset products price sorter.
But, easypopulate normally does both of those steps automatically for you after it loads your products.

I'm befuddled. I tried the resets but, the prices still don't show
maybe I coded something wrong. I also checked all the settings that the tutorial said to check. I just haven't been able to check on another computer. I'll do that next .

Code:
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_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
Above my easy populate headers..tried and tested..
they must be uploaded as tab delimited .csv file NOT .txt file
EVERY product must have unique MODEL number.
I use Open Office, can never get Excel to work
HTH

Thanx Misty
I may try to revamp my spread sheet
Although digging a little deeper into products price manager. When I check individual products its says current price status is preview only. Is there a way to set my products out of preview mode? Preferably in bulk. I have 4,000 products.
Thanx again everyone
Re: easy populate all my prices show 0.00
Have you got your store set as showcase only
i.e. Visitors can view but not purchase?
Also don't upload more than 300/500 products
at any one time when using Easy Populate.
Re: easy populate all my prices show 0.00
how do I check to see if it's set to show case and how can I delete my products and onlu upload 300- 500?
