Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

[langer]

I spent the money on a file that is basically useless. What is the deal with it importing item in the main directory. I have to go in now and delete 14 pages of items.

I hate to be an *** but when you buy something you expect it to work. I can understand the free version having bugs. It keeps telling that the categories don't exist and I know they do because I entered them manually.

xstremedesign, I have responded to your concerns both by email & a pm here in order to address them, and have not received a response from you yet.

I cannot understand why you insist on seeking support here for Easy Populate Advanced, as it simply is not given here, nor why you are spamming my forum given that I have responded to your emails and have as yet had no reply.

If you are hell bent on getting a refund and not resolution of any issues, then so be it - why keep slagging off about something that you are not interested in resolving? Please, save the slander for those who deserve it. I have earnt my credentials here, have you?

Hello folk,

I have a couple of no doubt simple questions about EP, my soon to be favourite tool.

All my products have been put in manually, since I needed to get used to Zen Cart anyway. Now I've done a full download as a backup as well as a Froogle download, just to see what's in it.

Q1/ Froogle - the fields called upc, shipping, and manufacturer_id are empty. Will that be a problem for Froogle? I can add the upc code myself but I don't know what goes in the other fields.

Q2/ Froogle - the currency field says "usd" for all the records. Reasonable, unless you know my currency is CAD. Why would it be usd in the Froogle output?

TIA

Rob

Things are working better now that I'm using the correct version of EP. As I said in my first post, I had tried to install EP 2.75a-Zen-Cart v1.2. I hadn't seen the fine print, which said that this was the buggy old version, and that the one with the lower version number was the newer one.

Hello,

I was able to finnally install EP and get everything working on it. That is, of course, thanks to the board for the simple help of even the install! Thanks again.


Now, my next problem

I was able to figure out the speadsheet for putting in all the information. But when I do upload the file it only uploads the last product and skips the rest.

I can provide the test group of items (the csv file) that I'm working with.

Hi SwordGoddess,
You have to have EOREOR at the end of each row. This makes it go on to the next product. You can just put a column at the end and in each cell put EOREOR.

v0903856,
First, thanks for the response. I did start by putting the EOREOR on the end of each string of information. It will say

"UPDATED! - Model: Books | book1.jpg | Eternal Wi | Amma a | | | | | 13 | 0 | | 01/17/07 1 | 5 | Amma | Amma | Books | Taxable Go |
"

But it won't say new product. Have I not done some settings correctly?

SwordGoddess, the model is the index and therefor must be unique in your store.

If you have a product with model "Books" already in your store, you will simply update it for each instance where this is the model in your import file.

I was able to figure out what my problem was. I had filled out the model information incorrectly.

Thanks again.

When I Import Data from file in temp/ - same thing, just a page reload, no categories or products get uploaded.
