Ok I understand on the images I am uplaoding the images that were on the other site.

What happened I was trying to upload 20 items to the new site I did not have any model numbers but have now added then to the 20 items. The problem is only one is showing up in my catagories out of the 20 i uploaded. It was the last item out of the 20. Why is this happening?

Attach your file. I'm sure you have something wrong in there.

One last question should they all have the same model number or should it be different. Its all old back issue Billboard magazines and I gave the one model number is tha correct.

here is the result i got

They must be unique = different for each item. This was covered just a few posts back as to what happens in this case. Each subsequent record is over writing the last since each model number is the same.

Thanks alot man I got it to work all is well. Guess i am going have learn some excel to to input some function in the colomns of the model numbers to change all of them.

One last question is there a new version of the google feeder for me to use. I was using one but got error feed code everytime I tried to view it.

Thanks again

Hi,
I wanted to change some descriptions just now but I'm having trouble. I did a full export, found the products I wanted to update, deleted all columns except v_products_model and v_products_description_1, changed my descriptions and imported, but the descriptions aren't changing on the site, even though it's showing as updated when I import.

Not entirely sure what the problem is, but I know EP's working as I used it this morning to update stock levels.
I use OpenOffice rather than Excel.

I would like to use easy populate with zencart 1.5 It seems this is not supported at this time. I can't seem to find anything on this. Does anyone know if there is a version of easy populate or similar that will work in 1.5 or will I need to install 1.3.9 Thanks in advance

Lenpilot,

Please read the first post in this thread carefully for use of EasyPopulate 4.0 Beta which IS compatible with Zencart 1.5.
You should also use Dr. Bytes MySQL Backup mod which was recently updated to work with Zencart 1.5.

Igi,

You happened upon a slight "issue" with that part of the import. When you JUST want to update descriptions, you will also need your v_products_name_1 and possibly v_products_url.

I do intend to split those out so they can be updated individually, but haven't had time. Will try to get it in the next update at github. It was just something I never did myself, but it has come up before so I'll make it more flexible.

Thanks for the explanation - now I think of it I do remember having a similar issue a while back.
Great addon by the way, I couldn't do without it.
