Easy Populate vs Easy Populate Advanced

I read all over about the AEP but the question I have is that I want to use it strickly for attributes, which will be assigned Prices and images. The images are hosted on a different server and I just want to upload them as a url.

Is it possible to use the advanced EP for that.

Hi, please help me with the easy populate. I have downloaded the software. i read the installation notes, however the problem is what do i change the 'admin' to to be in line with zen cart, which directory should i upload it to, i uploaded it to "domain/catalog/easypopulate, and last question, what should i type in the browser to start the installation. Please help
Thanks

Completely wrong installation... the above will not work. Remove/Delete what you did.

The instruction regarding admin folder in the EP readme file relates to the need to secure your site, by re-naming the admin folder. This is not an EP issue.

What the instruction says, is that IF you have renamed your server admin folder, then just re-name the EP admin folder on your local machine, before you click the FTP arrow.

Thanks so much. It works.

OK, so I've read all this and more, and I'm still no wiser - will spending the dosh on EPA make it easier to import/export attributes? It seems that you can import/export attributes with both, but as a separate file, and then what do you do with it? If you import an attributes file into an existing installation does it add/over-write attributes that are already there? I'm a bit scared to try it out. But if so, then the free version seems to be enough.
Anyone?

I have installed EP correctly and downloaded a Model/Category file without any problem.

Then, I added three row to the file as follow:

CLEAN-AUTO Oder Removers
CLEAN-DOG Oder Removers
CLEAN-CAT Oder Removers

Saved the file and in EP Admin page I browsed for it and then clicked on "insert into DB" prompt. Operation completed without any error and I got this message:

Upload Results

File uploaded.
Temporary filename: /tmp/phpHOKT2d
User filename: Category-3.csv
Size: 4234

When I go back to my site I don't see new "Oder Removers" category! What am I doing wrong?

Please note that I checked the date format it was OK and changed the time format to 9:00:00 AM (just added AM to end)

Thanks in advance for your reply.
