upload products - product on pages vs add to pages column

Postby psldesigns » Fri Sep 29, 2006 6:09 am

Since the conversion to 8.1, I've had a problem uploading the include on page information. I use to just use the pages separated by a pipe and it uploaded fine. Now, however, they don't upload, it just ends up blank.

Has something changed with how this field is handled in 8.1? What is the difference between the two columns?

The problem is with the ADD TO PAGES vs the PRODUCT ON PAGE columns. Here is the solution:

Thanks Loren for the advice -- I applied it a different way. I will post here what I did in case others need the info.

I downloaded the products and searched for info in the "ADD TO PAGES". I found some .htm pages, some titles of pages, and some checked (obviously a tab error in a previous upload).

I deleted ALL products with info in the "ADD TO PAGES" column. Then I regenerated the site.

I then uploaded the products back with NOTHING in the "ADD TO PAGES" column but titles of pages in the "Products on Page" column.

The entire upload worked flawlessly as it use to, the links rebuilt and uploaded successfully.

I would still love to know HOW the "ADD TO PAGES" column should be used. Nothing is in the shopsite help about it.
