Easy Populate v2.76h


Guest

Recommended Posts

I'm running OSC v2.3.1

I want to install EP v2.76h

 

I had no problem with installation instructions STEP 1 or STEP 2

STEP #1 - Upload the following files to your osCommerce Store Directory

Copy file /catalog/admin/easypopulate.php into /catalog/admin/

Copy file /catalog/admin/easypopulate_functions.php into /catalog/admin/ folder.

Copy the /catalog/admin/EPDocumentation/ folder (3 files) into your /catalog/admin/ folder.

 

 

STEP #2 - Setup the "temp" folder

The "/catalog/temp/" folder should be uploaded to (or created in) the root of your store (Beside the /admin/, /images/, and /includes/ Directories)

Set the CHMOD permissions of this folder to 777.

 

However, STEP 3 asks me to change code located in the /catalog/admin/boxes/catalog.php, but I don't have this file structure, I have /catalog/admin/includes/boxes/catalog.php

 

Now I went on to assume that this is okay, however, the code that the instructions said to look for in the file isn't in the file...here's what's in my catalog.php file:

 

<?php

/*

$Id$

$cl_box_groups[] = array(

'heading' => BOX_HEADING_CATALOG,

'apps' => array(

array(

'code' => FILENAME_CATEGORIES,

'title' => BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS,

'link' => tep_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES)

),

array(

'code' => FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES,

'title' => BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES,

'link' => tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES)

),

array(

'code' => FILENAME_MANUFACTURERS,

'title' => BOX_CATALOG_MANUFACTURERS,

'link' => tep_href_link(FILENAME_MANUFACTURERS)

),

array(

'code' => FILENAME_REVIEWS,

'title' => BOX_CATALOG_REVIEWS,

'link' => tep_href_link(FILENAME_REVIEWS)

),

array(

'code' => FILENAME_SPECIALS,

'title' => BOX_CATALOG_SPECIALS,

'link' => tep_href_link(FILENAME_SPECIALS)

),

array(

'code' => FILENAME_PRODUCTS_EXPECTED,

'title' => BOX_CATALOG_PRODUCTS_EXPECTED,

'link' => tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_EXPECTED)

)

)

);

?>

 

The instructions wants me to change:

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES, '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">' . BOX_CATALOG_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . '</a><br>' .

 

To:

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link('easypopulate.php', '', 'NONSSL') . '" class="menuBoxContentLink">Easy Populate</a><br>' .

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I could be mistaken, but I don't think Easy Populate works with 2.3

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

You need to replace the top formatting of the file with template_top

 

Compare easy populate with a standard file. I have running fine in 2.3.1

 

Here is the top bit. Do the same at the bottom of file

 

// S T A R T

// PAGE DELIVERY

//*******************************

//*******************************

?>

<!--<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<html <?//php echo HTML_PARAMS; ?>>

<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?//php echo CHARSET; ?>">

<title><?//php echo TITLE; ?></title>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="includes/stylesheet.css">-->

<?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'template_top.php'); ?>

<script type="text/javascript"><!--

function switchForm( field ) {

var d = document;

I'm afraid I'm just not that savy yet to follow exactly what you're saying...

I'm thinking you're saying make some changes in the easypopulate.php file?
