axelsegebrecht Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 what are you showing in your admin/includes/configure.php as document root?also, go into admin/tools/file manager and then click on the folders getting down to the admin/includes, then at the top will show a path, what is that? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi Mibble, I've set the admin/includes/configure.php doc root to: /hsphere/local/home/ampaintb/ampaintball.co.uk The file manager shows me: /hsphere/local/home/ampaintb/ampaintball.co.uk/new/shop/admin/includes As far as I can make out it looks alright? PS: I wished I had an error message! Any idea how to tell my server to produce one instead of displaying an empty page? MTIA Axel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Display prices with tax = FalseOne tax zone, for Arizona - 8.1%. Why is it displaying the adding the tax to the Net Price and displaying the Gross w/ tax? Don't understand it... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I am having the same problem. I put the prices in (the actual item prices) through Easy Populate. It put the "gross" price as the actual item price, $89.99. It then calculated down the "net" price as 83.71. If I turn on show prices with tax, it shows the prices all correctly, but then doesn't add the tax for customers who are taxable at the end. If I turn off show taxes, then it shows the "net" price which is reduced and wrong. Any way to get Easy Populate to feed the input prices to the Net field instead of the Gross field? That way, the prices would be correct when shown "without tax". Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By munging in my excel spreadsheet the price (i.e., multiply the "net" price by 1.075, which gives it the price plus the local tax rate) then uploading the resulting price, now when I display my prices without tax, it shows the proper amounts. Then when someone authenticates as a user in my tax zone (California) it properly adds the tax, but if someone is elsewhere it just puts the regular price without tax. Easy Populate really should be populating the Gross Price field rather than the Net Price field. Maybe someone could fix that so this "workaround" is not required. Thanks all.

Guest Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 it is most likely a setting in your ep file, as ep does work properly. have you read thru the ep suppport thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 it is most likely a setting in your ep file, as ep does work properly. have you read thru the ep suppport thread? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I did a search and didn't find anything, but that doesn't mean much. I'm really trying to fast-track getting the site up, so I've been cutting as many corners as I can. However, I'll do some more sniffing around in the EP section to see if I can get to the bottom of this. This is pretty much a stock EP installation ... I would think it would work the "right" way out of the box, but then again, I'm thinking of the "right" way from my own perspective ... maybe in other countries the other way is the "right" way ... and our way is wrong ;) Thanks for the feedback.

Guest Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 per the ep documentation, you need to read thru the file, and set it to how you want your products populated, ie setting tax calculation on or off, active or inactive product, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I have worked with a few more OSC contributions I feel more comfortable and realize that I need to actually open the EasyPopulate "executable" and look in there. That was not apparent to me before. I'll look through it and see if I can figure it out. This noooooobie thanks you very much ;) Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asharp17 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Easy Populate is great. I just need to know how to link to a product image on one of my supplier's website. I want to be able to upload a link to the image in my tab delimited text file. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asharp17 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 linking externally can not be done without lots of coding to make it work <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks Mibble. I also have another issue. I've had a problem after I install easypopulate, I download a tab file to edit and its fine. If i do it again, the file has all the t's and r's removed and so has no tabs. It uploads fine, so I've been working off the good file i first download. If I reinstall the easypopulate files, everything works fine. Any ideas why this is happening?

Pixy Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I am not sure which version of OSC we are working on - I did not install it and the person that did is not available - is there anywhere that I can look? There is no database_tables.php in admin/includes/ I also created the catalog/temp folder but I have no idea how to set the premission or what they mean by: it's permissions are set to allow writes to that directory, that would be 777 or rwxrwxrwx (in shell access - while you're in the catalog directory, execute "chmod 777 temp" Quote Pixy One day at a time - we all have to learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pixelsoul Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 :( I have tried this on a test installation and it works great, but now i tried it on a site with the sts template contributions and it dows not seem to work, it adds products.. but without product name, when you clock on them it says product not found? Does anybody know a solution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 easypopulate is independent of sts, go back thru your sts installation. or dsable sts and see what you get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew J Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Yesssss! I had a working EP on my localhost. But the document root dir setting was different like the live shop: define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); I replaced the original doc root address define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/usr/local/www/data/www.eware.hu/catalog/'); with define('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', $DOCUMENT_ROOT); and PRESTO!
