Adding Excel File Upload option to product_csv module

[Joseph Kwan]

This hack works with VM 1.0.15. But you need to install also the Security Token fix postedon p.15

[Joseph Kwan]

I got a few requests for porting this hack to VM 1.1. I'm not sure whether there are needs for this since VM11 has dropped the CSV upload feature and opt for the CSVImproved component. If you think there is still a need for this hack, please post a response here.

A 1.1 version would be handy to me as my host is still running PHP4.
Thanks,
Dave

is there a user manual for csv module?

You will find detailed documentation in your vm administrator site.

Hi,

I hope you can and will be able to help me.
I have a problem with using csv / xls files , every time i try to use the upload function i will get a 403 error page displayed.

It seems like a folder or file doesnot have the right permissions.
But i was searching for a chmod list for Virtualmart 1.015 but didnot found then.

Please help me

Thanks , dear regards

i did make some different test about this problem.

1) i have testing with the configuration tab to deleted or ad some field.

This work fine with the standard installation (joonla 1.015 and vm 1.015)
When i install this hack (version 0.6 ) with the security patch ,
i haved tryed it again and i will recieve a 403 error from my internet page.

The Exel download function will work , but the upload function give me the same error page (403 ).

Will you help me ...?

Thanks
Dear regards

403 permission denied may not be a file permission problem. It may be an error generated by VM or Joomla.
What security patch are you referring to? The fix I posted on page 15?

[mversluis01]

Hi Joseph,

Yes the security patch I found somewhere in you're post.
