    Default Add new fields to Easy Populate Advanced?

    Has anyone managed to add new fields to Easy Populate Advanced? I know this is straight forward for the non-advanced version but getting lost in the advanced version code.

    I am specifically trying to add new fields from another related table but any help on this or new fields within the products table would help.

    Thanks.

    What exactly are you trying to add. There are a lot of tables in Zen Cart and some them are not loading in the easy populate because they are not related to the products.

    Thanks for the reply. I have added an extra product field in a new related table for a client (who also uses EPA for import/export).

    After a little more persistence, I did eventually get my head around the code and managed to get the import/export working for the additional field. It only took changes to a few lines of code in easypopulate_import.php (to include the extra field in the imports), easypopulate_export.php (to include the extra field in the exports), and easypopulate_functions.php (to delete the extra field when deleting a product via EPA).

    Dear Webego,

    Do you mind sharing how you did this? This link

    http://brassblogs.com/blog/editing-e...ription-fields

    provides a start but is not as complete as the solution you have found (incorporating changes to easypopulate_functions.php) and is only for new fields added directly into the existing database.

    Thanks!
