Does anyone know anything about using SPPC with easy populate? I cant seem to get my separate prices to show when I am signed in as one of the other types of customers. Please advise.

Can I use Easy Populate with jcommerce? I have it in there and configured but it won't create files or import.

You use EP with OSCOmmerce not Jcommerce which as you know is an extension for Joomla to display osc products.

Have you installed the correct version of EP for the OSC shop you are using.

Hi,

I have used Easy Populate previously a few years ago on a previous install of OSCommerce so I'm familiar with how it works. This time, I installed 2.8-231 and am using OSC 2.3.3. I downloaded and edited a CSV file. When I upload and import, I don't get any of the changes in the database. No errors or warnings display. I verified the CSV uploaded to the temp directory and re-downloaded it to check it out and all looks well. I've studied the docs and have not found any clues about what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My settings are:

v_customer_price_1
v_customer_group_id_1
v_customer_price_2
v_customer_group_id_2


This is what the separate customer columns look like in my excel file, I have my consumer price and 2 other different prices that are different depending on the customer. What should this look like in my data base i just want to make sure everything is right trying to narrow this issue down. Thanks

[puddlec]

is sppc working at all on your website.
e.g. each customer group has a different price, when they are logged in.
if you are not seeing this then there is a problem with that addon that needs to be fixed.
you can test by changing the price of a product within the admin and not using easy populate

[partrade12]

Yes I am not seeing the change of prices thats the problem, is there anything I should look at or post up here that you could look at that would be causing this issue? Thank you for responding!

Hi,  hope someone can help.  I've skimmed through the pages and can't see an answer.  I installed easy populate very recently, so the latest install on a new oscommerce site.  I had a couple of mishaps (stupidity) and had to restore previous database back-ups.  This sort of thing happened a few times as I was essentially playing with it and installing various add-ons prior to going live and generally checking everything was still working along the way.  Now I also added the Quantity Price Break (can't remember if this was before or after adding easy populate!), but my easy populate only downloads one price, not the additional ones.  I'm thinking I may have changed the database at some point, but then because I reverted to backups, lost something along the way.  I'm not sure if I've done something wrong or quite simply EP doesn't support the Quantity Price Break.  If the latter is the case, then so be it, i'll cope (I wouldn't know where to start to fix it), but if I've just made a silly error, will someone please point it out!!! Everything works okay other than the inability to download/upload any additional prices.

Hi, I am new to the Oscommerce community.  I just installed the easy populate v 2.8 last updated by Puddlec.  Thank you and previous contributors for your contributions.  It was great seeing easy populate add all new products in one shot.  However, I encountered a few problems when I "insert to db" using the "update" or "normal" mode.  It just ran on forever and finally got timed out.  Seems like I can add new product smoothly but not when I want to update.   Also when I click on the "create and download" a complete .csv file, It also kept running forever and finally got timed out.  And my store is new so I don't have that many products in the database yet.  But I have changed the php.ini anyway to set larger file size limit, higher max memory limits, etc as suggested for a large store but that didn't change anything. Could someone please help me pinpoint the problem and what I can do to resolve the problem?  I appreciate your help and time.  

BTW, I am using version 2.3.3 oscommerce.  The code that adds a link in the Admin panel didn't work.  I had to define the filename in the filename.php in admin/include and also the name of "Easy Populate" in english.php in admin/include/languages, then had to change accordingly in the catalog.php file.  Just want to point it out in case someone else might encounter this problem.

I found out what was wrong but the problem didn't totally got resolved yet.  I can only upload and insert a max of 14 products at a time.  I can split the files into the temp directory and then upload from there.  It is okay for now but that's not really ideal for the future.  Don't want to have to upload hundreds of times when I have thousands of products. My current setting in the php.ini is as follows:
memory_limit = 64m
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 64M
max_execution_time = 300
max_input_time = 1200
session.gc_maxlifetime = 2440

I thought I've raised the limits pretty high already and the file that I was trying to upload is just 16KB, but it still didn't work.  I went through the "configuration variables" in easypopulate.php and tried a combinations of setting but it didn't really help.  Any suggestions or ideas that I can try?  Thank you in advance for your help.
