Empty Fields

Submitted by Bob on Thu, 2007-10-04 15:58 in

Hi there,

I am trying to find out the way to import a feed with three empty fileds. If I try to do it with only 2 empty fields I have no problems but as soon as I add a third empty field it does not want to import. Any ideas where I could modify this, if at all?

Many Thanks

Bob

Hi Bob,

Do you mean that your feed doesn't have all the required fields? When you register, Product Name, Buy URL and Price are the only fields that are required. Are you trying to import a feed that doesn't have one of these fields?

Cheers,
David.

David,
I have all the fields in the feed I need. I added some extra empty fields to the feed to better manipulate the data between different feeds. As I said if there are 2 extra empty fields I have no problems. But if I add the third extra empty field it does not import.

Many Thanks

Bob

Hi Bob,

Have you physically added these fields to the feed, or are you referring to the use of the "Extras" option where you can add additional fields to the description?

I think it sounds like the former; in which case has adding your 3rd empty field done anything to change the format? Can you describe exactly what you are doing to add fields, and if you are have you re-registered the feed after changing its format?

Cheers,
David.

David,
It looks like I messed up somewhere when adding extra fields in tapestry. It's no worries. I added extra fields before I just wanted to add one more. I tested other feeds I did not modify and they can't be imported as well = back to tapestry. David if the problem re-appears again somehow and it sounds as if there are no such limitations in the code, I would get back to you.

Many Thanks

Bob
