I'm going nuts over ep problems

[Guest]

I'm trying to get EP to work in OSC and I had it going once but ended up uninstalling and reinstalling OSC and now I can't get EP to work at all.

it doesn't even show up in my catalog.

 

I put easypopulate.php and easypopulate_functions into the admin folder

I created a temp file with 777 permissions

and I added the

'<a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php', '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>'. file to admin/includes/boxes/catalog.php file and I still get nothing.

 

Below is a copy of my catalog.php file. Can someone tell me if there is ant thing wrong with it?

 

 

 

<!-- catalog //-->

<tr>

<td>

<?

$info_box_contents = array();

$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'left',

'text' => BOX_HEADING_CATALOG

);

new navigationBoxHeading($info_box_contents);

 

$info_box_contents = array();

$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'left',

'params' => 'nowrap',

'text' => ' <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS . '</a><br>' .

' <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . '</a><br>' .

' <a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php', '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>'.

' <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_MANUFACTURERS, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_CATALOG_MANUFACTURERS . '</a><br>' .

' <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_REVIEWS, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_CATALOG_REVIEWS . '</a><br>' .

' <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SPECIALS, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_CATALOG_SPECIALS . '</a><br>' .

' <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_EXPECTED, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_CATALOG_PRODUCTS_EXPECTED . '</a>'

);

new infoBox($info_box_contents);

?>

</td>

</tr>

<!-- catalog_eof //-->

I figured it out.

I was putting things in the wrong folders.

I needed to put them in the catalog/admin

and catalog/admin/includes/boxes

now i really feel stupid

ahh, yes the docs directory is valuable, pretty much a straight forward installation

Sure could be, unfortunatly I followed the directions the first time. didn't say anything about the catalog directory.

O well live and learn. :thumbsup:
