Hello, I have this code in place to better handle special characters, and it seems to work fine. In file admin/easypopulate.php replace, // make sure all non-set things are set to ''; // and strip the quotes from the start and end of the stings. // escape any special chars for the database. foreach( $filelayout as $key=> $value){ $i = $filelayout[$key]; if (isset($items[$i]) == false) { $items[$i]=''; } else { // Check to see if either of the magic_quotes are turned on or off; // And apply filtering accordingly. if (function_exists('ini_get')) { //echo "Getting ready to check magic quotes<br>"; if (ini_get('magic_quotes_runtime') == 1){ // The magic_quotes_runtime are on, so lets account for them // check if the last character is a quote; // if it is, chop off the quotes. if (substr($items[$i],-1) == '"'){ $items[$i] = substr($items[$i],2,strlen($items[$i])-4); } // now any remaining doubled double quotes should be converted to one doublequote $items[$i] = str_replace('\"\"',""",$items[$i]); if ($replace_quotes){ $items[$i] = str_replace('\"',""",$items[$i]); $items[$i] = str_replace("\'","'",$items[$i]); } } else { // no magic_quotes are on // check if the last character is a quote; // if it is, chop off the 1st and last character of the string. if (substr($items[$i],-1) == '"'){ $items[$i] = substr($items[$i],1,strlen($items[$i])-2); } // now any remaining doubled double quotes should be converted to one doublequote $items[$i] = str_replace('""',""",$items[$i]); if ($replace_quotes){ $items[$i] = str_replace('"',""",$items[$i]); $items[$i] = str_replace("'","'",$items[$i]); } } } } } with, foreach( $filelayout as $key=> $value){ $i = $filelayout[$key]; if (isset($items[$i]) == false) { $items[$i]=''; } else { // strip enclosing quotes added by Excel $items[$i] = preg_replace('/^"(.*)"$/', '$1', $items[$i]); // doubled double quotes should be converted to one doublequote (for some reason Excel adds them) $items[$i] = preg_replace('/"{2,}/', '"', $items[$i]); // standard functions to clean db input $items[$i] = tep_db_input(tep_db_prepare_input($items[$i])); } } HTH, VJ

I've managed to fix by making the following change. In /catalog/advanced_search_result.php (around line 238), replace, $select_str = "select distinct " . $select_column_list . " m.manufacturers_id, p.products_id, pd.products_name, p.products_price, p.products_tax_class_id, IF(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, NULL) as specials_new_products_price, IF(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, p.products_price) as final_price "; with, $select_str = "select distinct " . $select_column_list . " m.manufacturers_id, p.products_id, pd.products_name, p.products_price, p.products_master, p.products_master_status, p.products_tax_class_id, IF(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, NULL) as specials_new_products_price, IF(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, p.products_price) as final_price "; What I've basically done is just add products_master and products_master_status to the sql queries.

Strange! Did you open/modify this file in a WYSIWYG editor like Dreamweaver? If so, I suspect that might've messed up your paths. You can try replacing it with a fresh new easypopulate.php (don't forget to backup your existing file!). If you have your store at, say, http://shop.yourdomain.com or http://www.yourdomain.com/shop, you'll most likely have to change the temp directory paths to something like, -- $tempdir = "/shop/temp/"; /* This is what really matters */ $tempdir2 = "/catalog/temp/"; /* This is a redundant variable, as far as I can see. Maybe you can use it to backup the original path. */ --- HTH, VJ

I'm very new to this and I just can't figure it out. You're probably trying to get a newer EP version to work on a MS1 setup. You might find this thread here, useful. VJ

I'm not really sure what those js runtime errors are about. Here's a "solution", though: Add this code to your /admin/includes/general.js, function rowOverEffect(object) { if (object.className == 'dataTableRow') object.className = 'dataTableRowOver'; } function rowOutEffect(object) { if (object.className == 'dataTableRowOver') object.className = 'dataTableRow'; } ... and keep your fingers crossed! :P Next time you get a js runtime error, try to note them down or capture a screenshot. VJ

Hello, I've posted a code patch here, that should enable EP handle quotes better. VJ

Hello, Are you sure you're using consistent product model numbers? VJ

You'll most likely need to change this (in easypopulate.php): // **** Temp directory **** // if you changed your directory structure from stock and do not have /catalog/temp/, then you'll need to change this accordingly. // $tempdir = "/catalog/temp/"; $tempdir2 = "/catalog/temp/"; to, // **** Temp directory **** // if you changed your directory structure from stock and do not have /catalog/temp/, then you'll need to change this accordingly. // $tempdir = "/temp/"; $tempdir2 = "/temp/"; HTH, VJ

Well, the links script doesn't involve changes to your index.php file, so its likely that something else has messed it up. Have you checked line 13, by the way? VJ

Huh, here comes the tricky bit... 1. Copy /catalog/includes/spider.txt (if you haven't done so, earlier), and /catalog/includes/classes/split_page_results.php (rename it to split_page_results_new.php, before copying) from MS2. 2. In split_page_results_new.php, rename all instances of "splitPageResults" to "splitPageResultsNew" (you should find 2). 3. In /includes/modules/link_listing.php: replace, $listing_split = new splitPageResults($listing_sql, MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS, 'l.links_id'); with, // split-page-results require(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'split_page_results_new.php'); $listing_split = new splitPageResultsNew($listing_sql, MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS, 'l.links_id'); That should do it. Happy New Year! :) I remember going through this routine a couple of times, before. I'd appreciate if you could compile all the changes you'd needed to make (to get this working in MS1), and post it. VJ

Missing semi-colon in, define('TABLE_ZONES', 'zones') :) VJ

Oops, my mistake. I'd copied the function immediately above, along with tep_output_string, in my code. Just remove this code from the one I'd posted, and you'll be fine (hopefully!). function tep_parse_input_field_data($data, $parse) { return strtr(trim($data), $parse); } VJ

Appears like you have stray code in your database_tables.php. Double-check the changes you've made to that file. VJ

You can try copying the following code from your MS2 /catalog/includes/functions/general.php: //// // Parse the data used in the html tags to ensure the tags will not break function tep_parse_input_field_data($data, $parse) { return strtr(trim($data), $parse); } function tep_output_string($string, $translate = false, $protected = false) { if ($protected == true) { return htmlspecialchars($string); } else { if ($translate == false) { return tep_parse_input_field_data($string, array('"' => '"')); } else { return tep_parse_input_field_data($string, $translate); } } } HTH, VJ

Hmm... not sure what those errors exactly are. Maybe you could copy/paste the lines where they occur, here (if you have a Javascript debugger integrated with your browser). VJ P.S. - If you're keen on donating money, please PM/IM/email me. Thank you :).
