Product Extra Fields and Easy Populate

[postalservice14]

Hey,

 

I am using Product Extra Field Contribution and Easy Populate. I got Easy Populate to work great, but I want it to also import those extra fields if I could. Has anyone else done this that would like to give me some pointers?

 

Thanks,

 

John

I'm working on the same thing. No success yet. Anyone out there with advice?

Best method if your not very familiar with EP layout & functionality is to:

 

1. Open easypopulate.

2. Do a search for a column name like " products_model "

(make sure the new field your trying to add is in the same db table as what you search for - in this example "TABLE_PRODUCTS" or "products" has the column "parent_model")

3. In every place you find the column you search for, check the syntax, and mimick it for the new column / field name.

(in most instances you will see a " v_ " preceeding the column name both as variables & w/in MySQL statements - mimick this...)

4. Make sure the column name on your excel template is the " v_ " version of your column name.

 

BACKUP THE easypopulate file before making any changes.
