instaling easypopulate

[mhela]

:rolleyes:

 

hi there,

 

i was a new user of OScommerce and i already installed the OScommerce.I need to set up my catalog which i need to upload a cvs file..thats y i installed the easyupload.i folow the instruction as written..

 

 

 

 

Installation Instructions

 

 

1. There are two files

easypopulate.php,

and this instruction text file.

 

 

2. Copy file easypopulate.php into catalog/admin/

 

 

3. Run the following SQL query on your database administration tool:

 

ALTER TABLE

 

`categories` ADD `categories_root` INT( 11 ) NOT NULL;

 

This will add ?categories_root?

 

field in table ?categories?.

 

 

 

4. For adding link to the Admin, edit file catalog/admin/includes/boxes/catalog.php by

 

adding this line:

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php', '', 'NONSSL') . '"

 

class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>'.

 

After:

'<a href="' . tep_href_link

 

(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES, '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">' .

 

BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . '</a><br>' .

 

 

 

 

but i stop here in..inserting the script then upload into my server all the catlog does not show.....this is what it looks like int catalog.php

 

 

 

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

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

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

 

 

 

as instructions said..i put the script after the '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES, '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">' . BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . '</a><br>' .

 

 

but things does not change hope u can help me!!

If that is what that part of the file looks like then I am surprised you do not have a parse error.

 

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

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

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

BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . '</a><br>' .

 

you have an extra "line" there ...

BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . '</a><br>' .

2.fill in a little amount of sample data

3. downloading the sample text file.

4. editing the txt file to excel (tab limeted)

4.1. first row has a name of field

4.2. check if the categories exist before adding a products

4.3. data includes only 30 products to make sure it will upload accordingly to the timeout process
