EasyPopulate 4.0 Support Thread

[mc12345678]

Hi there, I'm having a fairly bizarre issue with the latest version of EP4 downloaded from Github. Recently upgraded the cart from 1.5.1 to 1.5.3, thus needed to upgrade to the latest EP4. After uploading the new files, the EP page appears to load correctly and exports products fine.

However, once I re-upload the changed file and click "Import"... the product information changes *temporarily* but then reverts back to the original once EP import is complete. For example, if I change the product price from $5 to $6, and while the file is being imported/processed, I refresh the front end store product page in another browser tab, and the product price is correctly $6. But as soon as EP finishes importing and says "File Import Completed", I refresh the product page and it's right back to $5.

Any ideas?

Verify that the model for that product isn't listed more than once and that the model number of the item that follows isn't blank.

As for the need to view on a different tab, that basically is more than likely a sessions/cache issue.

Yes, that seemed to be the issue - duplicate products because they are in different categories. I've sorted all products by model number, and now I can see the duplicates and apply changes as needed. Thanks!

Can products_model be edited/revised using EP4? If yes which module?

Thank you.

No, EP4 does not offer a method to create or modify products_model at this time. The expectation in using it is that the products_model is identified already for each product or upon insert of new products that the products_model be identified.

Thank you

Forgot to mention that there are some relatively simple sql queries that can either be made or run to make changes or to create products_model information for items that are to have a new model number or to change it.

Hi, can someone please help me? There are several Easy Populate downloads available. How do I access the most recent plug in? I am running v1.5.3. I had a look at github but I'm not sure what link to select to download. Thank you.

Oops! Nevermind. I didn't see the "Download Zip" button off to the side.

Two things come to mind. 1. Check the error logs directory because of a partial screen display (ZC version < 1.5.1 is cache directory, >= 1.5.1 is logs directory)
2. Select the uninstall link on upper right and then the install option that will become available.

If that still doesn't work, then would help to know/understand how the transfer was performed and other related issues.

Where to see the error log?in which file?

I have tried uninstall and install,even upload the new file,not working.

I use cpanel backup the main dir file and import to the new sever,do not make any change on it,btw,the zencart version is 1.3.9
