Hello,
I just got the latest version of ez populate advance. I was wondering if ez populate would be able to populate custom product fields that I have created for my products. I have 2 custom fields that I created for my products. If it can, how do I find what is the column label for those fields?

Hello,
So I'm creating my excel file right now and I'm at the column v_master_categories_id.
Can I leave the cells below blank? Will EP generate that id for me after I specify which parent directory and link directory for that product on the next columns?

Hello,
So I just got done importing my file. I went to tools->ezpop, then browse my file and click on import. There was about 14000 records. The import seems to be complete because it had the waiting message at the status bar below my browser while it seemed to be importing or doing something. About 10-15min later the waiting messge disappear..I got no error. But I never got a success message either so I'm not sure. Anyways, I went to browse my products and I don't see any. I went to view my tables via phpMyAdmin and nothing has changed either. So what could be wrong?

Where did you come up with that v_master_catagories_id?

The catagory column name is v_catagories_name_1

Also the advanced EP version help is located where you bought the product. This is the Free version - 1.2.5.4

What I did was from the admin -> tools -> EP, they have the option to download datafile, so what I did was download the extStore file, I opened it and it has all the columns. So what I did was just put my info under the appropriate column with the correct data. That file has a column with the master category id. After editing the file, I went ahead and did a import with the file. Is that the correct way?

Hello Everyone
Need some advice. Have EP 1.2.5.4 ZC 1.3.8a Linux server. Have used EP for some time now with a few Excel problems but have worked most of those out. Uploading new inventory this week, new categories too, and worked fairly well. A few line 241 errors that seemed to relate to Product Names too long or code in descriptions. Then my admin slowed down, EP slowed to a crawl....now I can't upload. Keep getting webpage cannot be displayed and items are not updated or added. Same response to download except with Quantity file, but trying to upload file back with only top two items results in page cannot display. Same results with upload from /temp.

Any ideas? Is there a way EP gets overloaded with temp files or something? Should I delete some from /temp?
Apologize for the length. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks

Also, is there a way to access an EP log in my site directory?

Dear Friends

I was checking all Forum and FAQ to solve my problem but, nothing was there.
I installed EP and it seemed to work fine, I download text files to make my database firm, but when uploading txt file for 40K size following errors occur:

Warning: file(/home/public_html/temp/Full-EP2008Aug29-2245.txt) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/public_html/admin/easypopulate.php on line 1201

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/public_html/admin/easypopulate.php on line 1301

I am trying my level best to solve without posting.
Pls help.

ebaobao: EPA is commercial product really you should ask your question on the authors forum as EPA will be written differently to EP 1.2.5.4. As I understand that it is not a open source module.

overmyhead: How many products have you ? The thing with hosting if you buy a shared hosting package there may be 2000 other sites on that server, and you will only be allowed x amount of memory/ram if other sites are v busy they will take the power at the expence of yours.

ORIKO : This may be a permission error, is your temp folder permission set currently ?
Reading your error you are receiving it is not seeing this file ? Also check your files, have you been altering any files ?

No such file or directory
