russalpcs Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Hi all I have had my own website for a couple of years now - I have recently changed to OSC 2.3.1 and EP v2.76i and have also recently had to change all my model name to my suppliers' codes for easier updating - in this process I have changed my model name length for 12 to 20, but in the last 2 updates, I see it keeps adding duplicate products - supplier code is "CA-SATALT90-1B" - I have just downloaded a complete stock file from my website and all codes longer than 12 have been shortened to 12, maning that everytime I update, it adds "new product" when the product is already there! I now have 4 or 5 of the same items on my site! How do I fix this error? Thx Russel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russalpcs Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Hi again Strangely enough - it is updating the pricing correctly on each item? Russel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjjj6 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Hi I have just installed EP_v2_77a_22RC2a by Roaddoctor (4 March 2012 package) on a MS2.2 store with about 3500 products. I can download something simple such as a Model/Category file but When I click Create & Download I eventually (after about a minute) get an 500 Internal Server Error. What is the problem? Thanks, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjjj6 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Does anyone have a solution for running this script on a store with lots of products? Currently I can not even download the .csv as the server times out after 60 seconds. I know we can split the file for uploading, but what about downloading?

Benjjj6 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 (edited) When uploading a .csv do all columns need to be in the file? ie. Are all the columns necessary? And, Does EasyPopulate support the updating of attributes? I am not sure how to get that to work? Edited April 30, 2012 by Benjjj6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKU is not a standard field, open easypopulate.php and follow the instructions on how to add new fields in the product file. Then use the Export EP or Froogle Products File and down load a cutom file.

You can upload using files that only contain the columns you need but read the documentation for the mandatory fields certainly the model no and EOREOR are 2 you need.

Either set the maximum execution time in php.ini to a higher value or make a custom feed and filter on manufacturer of category. HTH G PS Attributes can be loaded using EP but it took me ages workiing out how to do it, download a sample file of products that have attributes and then use that as a template to upload/amend products with attributes.

Guest Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hi there, sorry to sound like a dunce here but does anyone know if the latest version of Easy Populate works with v2.2 rc2 as it seems to be playing a few tricks with my products.
