Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

[touchclothing]

I am using easy populate and I want to have one main image but I also want to add a second image to the site like this site as in the listing how do I add that to my csv or XL sheet to upload?

As far as i am aware, you can not add additional images with the basic version of EP, i think this is a Advanced EP feature.

Failying that, it just as quick to ftp up the additional images, as you dont need to go into each product and add each one... all you need to do is a make sure they are named correctly

I was just wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to hack EP to be able to upload a customer database?

Use FTP to add your images.

You need to name your images correctly so they show properly in the product info pages.

IE: Main image = 1001.jpg

additional images

1001_01.jpg
1001_02.jpg
1001_03.jpg
etc etc

You only need to add the main image in your EP file the rest will automaticly show on the product info page.

Hope it helps :)

I use EP to import my products but as I am VAT registered I need the prices that import to be the price including VAT.

When I check the prices after importing all my products the VAT is added on top of the price I imported.

IE: Price incl VAT = €10

If I set the price in csv file to €10 and import it will show in the site as €12.15 (Adding 21.5% VAT)

What I need is when I add an item at €10 it shows in the cart as €10 (including VAT)

I have tried to calclate the price before VAT in excel but it doesnt add up properly when reverse engeneering VAT calculations. The percentages are different and it uses about 6 or 7 decimal places to get the exact pricing right. And when I put it back to 2 decimal places the doesnt add up right.

As these values will be used in my bookkeeping they need to be spot on or the tax man will on to me LOL.

Has anyone done this or can someone maybe point me in the right direction.

Thanks a mil in advance for any help.

The way that I handled a batch import of customers was this...I took my existing customer datasheet (which I had exported from phpMyAdmin), and exported a customer datasheet from the "customers" database in the Zen Cart database. I cut and pasted the necessary data, imported the data (again, via phpMyAdmin) and then ran a script that I found on this forum that batch processes all unencrypted passwords into encrypted passwords and then, voila...I had all my customers in my new site. The only problem that I can think of with this methodology is that it doesn't address order histories. I hope this helps.

Dale, thanks for the direction. I've got it partially working. I've tried adding a single customer to check by phpMyAdmin. I've added them to the following tables: customers, customers_info and address_book.

When I do a search for them in admin, I find them, however I have the following errors:

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /home/actforms/public_html/cart/admin/customers.php on line 1035

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /home/actforms/public_html/cart/admin/customers.php on line 1037

Warning: reset() [function.reset]: Passed variable is not an array or object in /home/actforms/public_html/cart/admin/includes/classes/object_info.php on line 29

Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in /home/actforms/public_html/cart/admin/includes/classes/object_info.php on line 30

And when I click on "edit" none of the information is filled out. Any idea what table I am missing?

Thanks for the awesome help though!!

I'm not sure about this but, don't the import files have to be in a .csv format? Not .txt? I know they're very similiar (often considered to be the same thing, in fact) but that might be where the problem lies.
