    Default Big Ask - Products Add All in Table Format

    Hi I am starting a New Website and there alot of similar products.

    What I want to do is ad products by firstly turning the add product page into a table - which I have done. I am able to add a row underneath this table (to quickly add a new product) but the data I enter in this second row will overide the first row because it is using the same product Id - so I need to know how zen creates a product ID so I can get this functionality working.

    What I want is quite like easy populate - only adding new products online. I think this would be good if anyone knows how to do that.

    There is a module by dwno called "Quick Order" that you can configure quite easily to list EITHER the product codes, or leave it as blank input boxes.

    I use the latter configuration here

    It should be relatively easy to add Product Title to this array as well.

    Yes This looks good, what I mean though is basically, when I am adding products in the admin - i want to add them in a table
    so i can add lots of products at a time. So if I want to add another product I can click add rowr - and enter all the details - I would need a new interternal product ID to be set.

    Easy Populate remains the most efficient way of uploading product data en-masse.

    I would need easy populate to do quantity discounts also - I am trying to find out if it does...

    It would be better if easy populate would work on a web platform rather then having to take it out and put it in excell....

    thats what i mean if you could do everyting in a table format as an option Zen cart would be better instead of having to navigate to different sections for different tasks.

    The sort order is very clunky aswell....although I suppose you cant expect more if it is for free.
