I can't get this to work with the newest version of ZenCart. When will it be updated. All I get is a blank page.

Sorry to offer an around about discussion of the solution; however, the following Zen Cart forum post includes reference to the solution for Zen Cart 1.5.8: https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.php?190417-EasyPopulate-4-0-Support-Thread&p=1392329#post1392329

I don't have a blank page anymore which is great. I am using ZC 1.5.8 and php8.1 I created a bunch of categories and a couple of test products. I am able to download a CSV but when I add my actual products and try to upload them I get this message: SKIPPED! - v_products_model: 10001 - No category provided for this new product I entered the category and subcategories using the caret ^ I have tried everything I can think of and read the forums until I am blue in the face but can't determine the problem. Please help. I'm not able to post on the forum for some reason so that is why I came back here to ask the question. Thanks

I assume that the field header for your categories reads as: categories_name_1 with the data in the column as described something like Shirts^Long Sleeves.

I'm guessing though that if you went to the admin->Configuration menu and then the Easy Populate settings that the option for Import Language Override is unfortunately set as the default of language_code_only. It was intended to be set to language_id_only. Any value other than the default though is expected to resolve the described issue.

If that doesn't, the message is indicating that the system cannot find a field that represents the category field. Unlike elsewhere in Zen Cart I haven't prevented the possibility of product being in the "main" category which would occur if the category column is present but has a blank entry.

I retained that possibility so that this tool could continue to serve as an interface to the database not to necessarily affect how one interacts with the store.

Please provide an update upon review or testing of the above.
