Product price won't populate, help?

Hello,

I am using version 1.39g
I am using a fresh install, with easy populate, profit margin calculator, and sitewide markup.

I am able to upload through EP with a .csv file, and everything populates. I didn't supply the product price in the upload, as I want that to populate through the specified markup.

The funny thing is that after I upload the .csv file, and I manual go into the product, and I hit the tab key on the cost it populates the product price.

I have looked at the functions_prices.php, but I don't see anything in the code that does it.

So,

Am I missing something in the code?
If I am not missing anything, do you have any suggestions for modifying the code to work?

Thanks,
Hawk

P.S. There is/was a thread on the add on, but is not supported anymore.

I don't get what you are trying to do.

Sorry.

I am trying to take .csv file that has the following information:

Product #
Product name
Product Description
Product "Cost"
Product "Mark up"
and all other vital information

and upload it to my admin using Easy Populate.

example:

1/test/test desc/5/20% and display $6.00 on my website.

I have the fields on my .csv file when I download from my admin using EP.

I populated the .csv file with the data needed to upload back to my admin using EP.

Everything populates except the product price. Thus I get no product price on my website.

However, when I manually go into the product item I can force it to populate using the tab key on the cost field.

I hope that helps.
Hawk

I am sure it's easy to add field to the EP. I use the advanced EP and I added a lot of field to it such as MSRP price and MAP.

It would be hard to find someone that knows these modules on the forum. But you need to find their database names and table names. You can then add these fields similar to the product_price in the original EP files.

You will have to use the developer tool to located the files that contain the product_price in the EP files.

Try to study the logic in which the data is being retrieved and sent to the database.

If your price modules added fields to the same table as the product_price, it should be a matter of adding these new fields to the array in the EP files.

I am having no problems adding fields though.

My problems is that once I upload the data it doesn't populate through EP. I have to manually tab through the fields for them to populate.

So in essence EP is working great, and I believe it is 1.2.5.7
The markup is working great.

there is just a problem with the execution of the fields.

Does anyone know if I can use the \t; function to tab the field through code? I am not an experience programmer, just a dabbler.
