EasyPopulate 4.0 Support Thread

[allmart]

The issue, based on your description is with the second problem identified in the previous discussion. It comes down to alignment of import language identifiers as compared to what the file contains. Your file has the language id (1), but the default install/upgrade for import incorrectly sets to language_code_only. This means that if a file had for example: categories_name_1 and categories_name_en columns, then only the data in categories_name_en would be imported. Not having that column in a default install causes no category names being found.

So, change the setting to literally anything else (recommendation is language_id_only) and that problem will be resolved. The issue quoted above about that file is in reference to the original distribution of Zen Cart 1.5.8.

Sorry for the late response, your fixed worked ... many thanks!!!

My how time flies. It is a few more than 10 posts back, but not by many as the same issue(s) seem to appear at least once per page of postings. The most summarized post of known issues which includes yours is: https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....28#post1392328

I appreciate the credit, though have not 100% remained so composed. I'm human and have my moments. Thank you though.

For you and others, I have a change in the works, but am trying to test it thoroughly so as not to cause a further show of issues to address. These two are enough. :)

Well as this is the last post of this page, for those listing 10 posts per page, groundhog day begins on the next post. The issue described above is the "second" issue with the current version of EP4. Please follow the guidance from the above link about ensuring the import of language dependent fields matches the filename fields. It is discussed in the thread previously shared where the statement was that there are two known issues. It looks like you've resolved the 1.5.8 issue, now the other one.
