    Default Re: NEW install - OLD-Timer, what are the common plugins for 1.5.4

    thanks for your input, describes pretty much what I was thinking. Saw Colorbox but didn't know if it was useable or stable.

    Need to find a way to import my datafile on a regular basis. a few years ago a guy in UK coded a routine to ftp the datafile and auto update, but my favorite vendor changed the location of the data file so it's not working.

    Thought about EZ populate to manually process the file, but don't want to manicure the file every time I do it to conform to the EZ way of doing it.

    Thanks again

    I'd say the best way to get answers is to go check out the support threads for the target modules as the LATEST information is likely to be there..

    Well at some point there is going to need to be some level of customization. If the feed file is always setup the same way, then EP can be modified to use the file(s). If not then yeah may need to customize the file each time. But someone at some point has to make things "compatible".

    In otherwards, nothing comes for free. Ideally the code could analyze the input, and based on database anaylsis determine what updates could and should be performed and then take action on that information. Sort of an update as much as possible based on the available information type thing.... Haven't seen it yet, would like to develop it. :)
