You might have missed a step. Maybe someone else will come along that has installed it and knows for sure... Quote Community Bootstrap Edition, Edge Avoid the most asked question.

Maybe someone else will come along that has installed it and knows for sure... Actually the installation procedure is wrong. It tells you to modify catalog.php, but it only adds a string to a label in the admin panel, not a real link to EP. My fix: You go to catalog/admin/includes/filenames.php Around line 26, you add this: // Patch for easy populate define('FILENAME_EASY_POPULATE', 'easypopulate.php'); // End patch for easy populate then in catalog/admin/includes/boxes, you add '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES, '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">' . BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . '</a><br>' . I put that line right after: '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES, '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">' . BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS . '</a><br>' . It should fix it. Kiskit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥geoffreywalton Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 (edited) I would have thought you need something like '<a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php', '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>' . You really should replace easypopulate.php and "Easy Populate" if you want your admin pages to be muti-lingual but this will get you going.

HTH G Agree, it's just a quick fix, assuming your admin panel will always be in English, or assuming that the admin will always understand what easy populate means :). Clean version requires one file modification per language. Too lazy. Kiskit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
