EasyPopulate 4.0 Support Thread

This attached post can be ignored. Evidently, I copied over code from an older EP4 that was always reverting $ep_uses_mysqli to FALSE. And it override the hard setting. Everything is working swimmingly for now.

Glad it has been sorted... I had looked through many portions of code and couldn't find what would have caused it in the above described version...

Easy Populate is working great for me, with the exception of 1 issue. I can not get it to update the metatags_keywords_1 field. I am able to use EP4 to toggle the status (0/1) on the other Metatag fields (v_metatags_products_name_status,v_metatags_title_status) fine. It just seems to be the field where I can enter longer text that is the issue (metatags_keywords_1, metatags_description_1).

We recently upgraded to 1.5.7d and made sure all themes and modules are updated. I am able to manually enter the information for each item, and it does show when I download the store from EP4.

Any thoughts on where to start?

Thanks in advance for any help/thoughts.

See if the content at or further referenced back in the following post resolves the issue and please post back: https://www.zen-cart.com/newreply.ph...eply&p=1381450

I went back through those threads and tried a few changes (language ID/Code, etc.) but they did not resolve the issue. I double-checked to make sure the "use products metadata" was enabled as well.

I did also verify because I thought I may have been mistaken when I first attempted a product update. I am able to update the following correctly (as well as the other standard fields):

v_metatags_products_name_status v_metatags_title_status v_metatags_model_status v_metatags_price_status v_metatags_title_tagline_status

however

v_metatags_title_1 v_metatags_keywords_1 v_metatags_description_1

will not update.

Maybe I am missing something in the past posts, so I am going back through them again. Thank you for taking the time and suggesting the post to start with.

To ensure a full understanding, could you please identify the version of EP4 installed and then possibly the configuration settings (don't need to know anything about the path used for the upload/download folder)? Please be specific about identifying the version by its reported value.

Additionally, have you been successful with updating other records that are language based but not Metatag related?

I just tested with a record with two language-based (v_products_name_1) and (v_metatags_keywords_1) fields. The products_name_1 worked and the keywords_1 did not.

We are on versions:

• Easy Populate 4.0.37.13 - 05-03-2021
• Zen Cart 1.5.7d
• PHP 7.4.30 (Zend: 3.4.0)

I have attached screenshots.

I just tested with a record using the v_products_name_1 and the v_metatags_keywords_1 fields. The v_products_name_1 updated correctly, and the v_metatags_keywords_1 did not update (field was blank to begin with).

We are currently on version:
Easy Populate 4.0.37.13 - 05-03-2021
Zen Cart 1.5.7d
PHP 7.4.30 (Zend: 3.4.0)

Screenshots of configs are attached.
