EZier New Fields

[automotiveuk]

A new project_project entry has been added:

EZier New Fields

Easy way add retail price in the product_info.php

or some fields like this:

retail price: 89.99
our price: 45.00
you save: 44.99 or 50%

Ported to osCMAx 2.0 100% compatible.*

This is a great addition but how do you go about incorporating this with EasyPopulate? I want to be able to download what I have now with the EZier fields that are already filled out there so I can fill out all of the EZier fields then reupload.

Thanks

you really are going to have to learn easypop...

for instance here is a sample of some code from my easypop

// these are the fields that will be defaulted to the current values in the data
base if they are not found in the incoming file
global $default_these;
$default_these = array(
        'v_products_image',
        #'v_products_mimage',
        #'v_products_bimage',
        #'v_products_subimage1',
        #'v_products_bsubimage1',
        #'v_products_subimage2',
        #'v_products_bsubimage2',
        #'v_products_subimage3',
        #'v_products_bsubimage3',
        'v_categories_id',
        'v_products_price',
        'v_products_quantity',
        'v_products_weight',
        'v_date_avail',
        'v_instock',
        'v_tax_class_title',
        'v_manufacturers_name',
        'v_manufacturers_id',
        'v_products_dim_type',
        'v_products_length',
        'v_products_width',
        'v_products_height',
        'v_products_cost',
        'v_products_msrp',
        'v_product_oversized',
        'v_product_specialorder',
        'v_products_family',
        'v_v_order',
        'v_products_upc'
        );

You see the fields like

    'v_products_cost',
        'v_products_msrp',
        'v_product_oversized',
        'v_product_specialorder',
        'v_products_family',
        'v_v_order',

Now those aren't most likely in your version, since these fields are in mods that have been made to MY products table. When you make additions to the products table that you want easypop to be able to capture/add you have to modify easypop to be able to see them from the table, and also be able to add them.

Thanks for the advice. I suppose there aren't many faqs or anything that tell me how to recode easypop are there? Will probably be something that I will just have to mess around with and learn it that way.

I tried modifying the easypopulate.php code that came with OSCMAX and it failed HORRIBLY!!! Nothing would even show when I clicked on EASYPOPULATE in the admin menu any more.

So I went and downloaded the updated EASYPOPULATE in the projects directory. I have to say, that code is SOOOOO much easier to work with. Even though it looks almost the same as the stock code I changed, what I thought to be, the same code as the one I broke and it worked on the first try.

THANK YOU so much for all the help
