Chad - Why is the value of v_products_options_type field is different in the Attrib-Detailed-EP than Attrib-Basic-EP CSV?

I have used Radio buttons for Size and Drop down for Material.

The v_products_options_type in Attrib-Detailed-EP for product model 53 is 2 for Size and 0 for Material, but in Attrib-Basic-EP the value for Size and Material are both set to 2.

Shouldn’t it be 2 (Radio Button) for Size and 0 (Drop Down) for Material in Attrib-Basic-EP also?

I would appreciate it if you would explain the difference. Thanks.

I just created a test using your same BASIC data, and when I down load the DETAILED it is correct: v_products_options_type match.

Are you using the products_options_name "Material" more than once with DIFFERENT products_options_type (drop box vs radio button)?

Check your options names/values through the admin...

I thought I had messed up again, so I went ahead and installed a fresh install of 1.5.1 with clean database. The only plug-in installed is EP4 (Easy Populate 4.0.22 - Beta 6-10-2012).

I then created two products:
Prod 1
Shirt A (Model: SHIRT_200), with 1 attributes:
Size: Small, Medium, Large
Prod 2
Shirt B (Model: SHIRT_100), with 2 attributes:
Size: Small, Medium, Large
Color: Blue, Red, Green

As you can see when I exported the "Attrib-Basic-EP" and "Attrib-Detailed-EP", I am still getting “0” in v_products_options_type in the Attrib-Basic-EP (on record#3 of spreadsheet).

Shouldn’t that value be a “2” for Radio Button? Same result as before. Am I missing something Here?

Congratulations Kevin, you found a bug in the Basic Attribute EXPORT (not import).

A same product with different types of options was not exporting correctly.

Thank you for your diligence!

Chad – Please do not congratulate me as I do not deserve any. You deserve all the congratulations and recognition yourself with all of your hard work helping others.

Thank you again for an amazing module.

[Kevin205]

Here is the result. Perfect.





I will test with other options tomorrow and keep you posted. Thanks.
