    Default Easy populate - quick question - where are the images defined??

    I hopw this is in the correct section - I've just installed EP for my zen cart. I can't see which of the EP .txt files actually define the image names.

    I added a few products, with stock, price, description and image, using the manual method, just so I could see how EP would work, but when I download the EP files I can't seem to see any of the info I'd expected.

    The PriceQty file seems to be the only file that has any information at all, I expected the full one to have all the info, but it's empty apart from the headings, as is Categories, and Attributes only has the names of the products under v_products_model and the obligatory EOREOR field.

    Bear with me, I'm new to this, but do I have to add the same product information on a number of different txt files? Where do I define the location of the image file and the description of each item?

    Thanks

    For me it's the 2nd entry in the products file, immediately after the v_products_model

    OK, I see it there, I just expected that file to be full of products I had added the manual method.

    I'll try adding loads of new products on the database and importing them.

    Do I only have to edit this one file? Or do I have to add the same product names to the various txt files?

    Thanks

    I only ever use that one file.

    In my case, I found where they are defined and have them all set...but once I uploaded them (images were uploaded prior to easy populate DB upload) I have a ton of products that seemingly have no image? I am using Image Handler 2 as well and I believe the permission on the image folder is set to 755. I am not sure why the images are not showing up but any ideas for a fix would be awesome :)

    Thanks a ton

    Well I figured out mine :) there was a file that I did not catch called bridge.sort and I am not sure what was up with that file but it was screwing up everything. I ended up deleting the entire folder and recreating it and that was when I caught it. Thanks though !!!
