Few questions and problems

Hi,

I've been trying to find solutions to my problems on this forum for the past 12 hours and still I am at square one.

If anyone has any clue how to solve these issues and point me to the exact answers, I would gladly "compensate" him with a small contribution.

Ok, so I have a women lingerie website that I just started in Romania and my suppliers need from me a .xml or .csv file that includes :

  • product name or model
  • product id number (specified by suppliers for easy stock finding)
  • product available sizes since linjeries got a few sizes (S,M,L,XL) and if a product size is removed from the file, when I upload it back, it should remove that size from the product description/options
  • product price and if modified, when uploading it back, it should change the price
  • product quantity and if changed to zero, it should make the product inactive

I know this can be done with EasyPopulate to some extent but I failed horribly at setting it up to do so.

I tried to display sizes by adding product attributes but again, I failed miserably and even if I do that dropbox to chose the lingerie sizes, EasyPopulate will not display it in the downloaded .csv file.

If someone would be kind enough to point out how exactly I set up the sizes and to a plugin like EasyPopulate that can include the rows listed above, I would love him long time and as I said before, I would make a small donation to his cause.

Thank you very much in advance.

PS: sorry to the admins if I posted in the wrong category, my excuse is no sleep for the past 31 hours :)

Re: Few questions and problems

Have you looked at ALL the easy populate versions? I THINK 1.2.5.4 can deal with stock by attributes...

Hope this is not a double post, last one did not show up in the thread...

Can you please point me out to the exact link ? I am using the Easy Populate CSV, I might be using the wrong named one. There are a few Easy Populate in the Plugins section and I didn't know which one to use.

Thank you very much for your reply
