database backup/restore for extra fields

Submitted by don_load on Thu, 2010-10-28 15:44 in Price Tapestry

Hi David,

Was just checking the database backup/restore utility and noticed it doesn't seem to pick up on any extra import fields added to the tables. Where would I need to add those fields for the backup/restore to use them?

Hi,

For the latest distribution, the Database Tool should automatically pick up extra fields from the $config_fieldSet array, otherwise, for use with the original distribution look for the following code starting at line 37 in admin/database_tool.php:

    $fields["feeds"][] = "field_name";

    $fields["feeds"][] = "field_description";

    $fields["feeds"][] = "field_image_url";

    $fields["feeds"][] = "field_buy_url";

    $fields["feeds"][] = "field_price";

    $fields["feeds"][] = "field_category";

    $fields["feeds"][] = "field_brand";

...and simply copy / extend the array for any additional fields you have added, for example:

$fields["feeds"][] = "field_shipping";

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
David.
