Easy Populate 1.2.5.4 support

[Veronika7747]

I have installed easy populate on 1.3.8a and created csv files with my products. Now I installed it also on new 1.3.9a and I am trying to import that product file into database only to get the following error:

MySQL error 1054: Unknown column 'p.EASYPOPULATE_CONFIG_CUSTOM_FIELDS' in 'field list'
When executing:
SELECT
			p.products_id as v_products_id,
			p.products_model as v_products_model,
			p.products_image as v_products_image,
			p.products_price as v_products_price,
			p.products_weight as v_products_weight,
			p.products_last_modified as v_last_modified,
			p.products_date_added as v_date_added,
			p.products_tax_class_id as v_tax_class_id,
			p.products_quantity as v_products_quantity,
			p.manufacturers_id as v_manufacturers_id,
			subc.categories_id as v_categories_id,
			p.products_status as v_status,
			p.metatags_title_status as v_metatags_title_status,
			p.metatags_products_name_status as v_metatags_products_name_status,
			p.metatags_model_status as v_metatags_model_status,
			p.metatags_price_status as v_metatags_price_status,
			p.metatags_title_tagline_status as v_metatags_title_tagline_status, p.EASYPOPULATE_CONFIG_CUSTOM_FIELDS as v_EASYPOPULATE_CONFIG_CUSTOM_FIELDS  FROM
			Retail_products as p,
			Retail_categories as subc,
			Retail_products_to_categories as ptoc
			WHERE
			p.products_id = ptoc.products_id AND
			ptoc.categories_id = subc.categories_id

I have checked the column headings and they are identical. I have one extra field - short_description, that shows on both headings, but I have no idea what should be in EASYPOPULATE_CONFIG_CUSTOM_FIELDS (which is empty)

Any help/suggestion would be appreciated!

I got a similar response until I put back-quotes around the table and field names:

UPDATE `products` SET `products_qty_box_status` = '1'

This used to work. Now, I still get the 'failed' message. Something to do with the v139 change, perhaps?

I would really like to be able to use the model number for the zipcode. I have a dating site, and I would like someone to be able to enter in a zip code and see all the different results.

Is there no possible way for this? I have read that model number is a key field.

But on wiki I also read that as long as you have them in different categories it should work.

The error message i get:

Warning: file(/home/musicalv/public_html/o-bean.com/temp/temp/) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/musicalv/public_html/o-bean.com/admin/easypopulate.php on line 1223

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

Any Fix For this???

admin/easypopulate.php on line 1301

m/admin/easypopulate.php on line 1223

OK I have a work around that I found after reading other posts.

Easy way is to use the Manufaturers name as zipcode. This allows you to have an unlimited number of products with the same zipcode/manufacturer name.

Of course now you will have to go to admin/tools/developer tool kit and search for every occurance of manufacturer and replace it with Zipcode. Do this carefully as you dont want to change variable names, just the values of variables. I had already done that for product model but now I will scrap that since I can only have one unique occurance of product model.

I have already instituted this without any problem.

Other option is to list your products as Music. This will give you three additional fields, Artist, Genre and company. Again, you will have to go to developers tool kit and search for each occurance and change them to reflect your needs.

Either one of these options works really slick. If you are not using manufacturer name, as most probably aren't, I recommend going that route. Of course that will only give you one additional field. Good enough for me.

Good Day, I've a bit problem

I've installed easypopulate 1.2.5.6 in my (test) zencart, but in admin panel I don't seen any choice for easypopulate.
I've (how specified in install.txt) copied all contents of directory admin of easypopulate into directory admin of my site but don't work
I've forgotten something?
I hope in your help :)
Thanks.

Exactly!!!

There's not much that can go wrong here. EP consists of only two files. If you have both of those files in the correct directories, it pretty much has to work. Remember, you need to reload your admin page (hit "refresh") on the browser to see this after you upload it.

Is your admin directory named something different?

What version of ZC are you running?

In testing version of my zencart the admin directory isn't renamed.
I've copied from folder of easy populate /admin/easypopulate.php in directory /admin of my site and easypopulate.php from folder of easy populate /admin/includes/languages/english in same directory of my site.
My default language is Italian and I've too create directory admin/includes/languages/italian and copied easypopulate.php from english to it.
I'm running zencart 1.3.8
