Easy Populate with many product attributes. Help!

Hi all,

 

I want to import a product DB with 35 fields (fixed product attributes such as weight, size, color, etc...) using Easy Populate.

 

-- Should I merge the extra attributes in Excel into a single, preformatted html field (using a macro) and then import them into OSC using Easy Populate as a normal product_description field?

 

Is there a better solution?

 

Please help!

David.

If you did that and then later on wanted to use Easy Popuate as a Froogle feed then Froogle would undoubtedly reject it (even one tiny thing wrong and they'll reject it).

 

You can see in admin/easypopulate.php which fields EP accepts.

 

Sorry I can't be any more help - only just getting to grips with this myself.

Thanx 4 ur reply Vger.

 

Does that mean that people using WYSIWYG editors for their product_description will end up with screwed up Froogle feeds?

 

Other suggestions? Anybody? Here's the question again:

 

Question = How do you import a product DB with extra fields into osCommerce using Easy Populate? The extra product fields will ofcourse need to be displayed in a special table on product_info page...

 

Many many thanx for any help/leads offered.

 

David.
