Loaded Commerce Community

Hi,

I am a Creloaded newbie using 6.2B2B with the latest patch.

I am looking to modify Easy Populate to include additional fields that I have inserted in the products table.

Can anyone help me with instructions on which lines to modify in the easypopulate.php file.

Cheers

Richard

this might help:

product extra fields

I had a look at the product extra fields and whilst they display easily on the product page (depending on whether there is data in the field), I would prefer to use the product table. Logic would suggest it would be easier to add a few fields from the same table to easy populate on the import/export routines rather than to refer to a different table. i am also looking to use some of these fields to help modify the advanced search criteria. Do you know if there is an PHP code already written that would get me on my way?

I don't know of any existing code for this but I know it can be done by tweaking the ep code. I'll give it a try... Are you using EPA or EPB?

Hi

We are using EPA. If you could look at the code that would be fantastic.

Cheers

I, personally, would love to be able to import the extra fields through Easy Populate. Please keep us posted.

Thanks!

Get store manager for cre loaded and your problem is solved, besides, it has tons of other great features.

www.creloaded-manager.com

If anyone still needs to do this all you have to do is log into phpMyAdmin and select the database you want to change. Then scroll down to "products_to_products_extra_fields" import your file there just be careful you need to refer to Product id "NOT Product Model"

Has anybody been able to figure out how to use Easy Populate with Extra Fields in CRELOADED by changing the code? The oscommerce version of the contribution addons.oscommerce.com/info/3675 modies the easypopulate.php file while the files in creloaded are different?

If it's extra fields in the product table why can't you just rename existing fields that you don't want to import ?

in my bookstore website, i have extra fields such as ISBN, Publisher etc. What what i need to remane these as in the export file. i currently have v_manufacturer_name etc. but how would the extra fields appear as in the EP export file?

Pls could somebody explain to me how to import "product extra fields" in CREloaded Standard using Easy Populate. I am CRE newbie at my wits end and really need to get this to work.

Many thanks

Easy Populate can't do that.

Is this really the case, guys? Is it totally impossible to import data into the extra fields that are already in my CREloaded other than by doing this one by one? I have thousands of products and this cannot work. Is there a way of doing this by renaming the EP fields to sth like v_product_extra_fields1 etc?

Just down load the 30 day evo of creloaded manager and see if it will do what you want. I know it handles the extra fields very well.

I would post the link but I'm not allowed anymore, just do a search.
