Resolved Import EZRealty overwrite/re-downloading Images

Hello Mark,

All is well, hope all is well with you too.

As for your question, you can create an import override of the file administrator/components/com_csvi/models/com_ezrealty/import/propertyimport.php file and add this code after line 528:

$db = JFactory::getDbo();

				$query = $db->getQuery(true)

					->delete($db->qn('#__ezrealty_images'))

					->where($db->qn('propid').'='.$this->id);

				$db->setQuery($query);

				$db->query();

A somewhat related question, have you thought about a future with EZ Realty with it's development come pretty much to a standstill?

Hi Roland...yes we are good thank you. Business is good so I cannot complain.

As for EZRealty, I understand Kathy is taking some time away and restructuring how she works in terms of support etc but she hasnt answered my personal email about how she is or what might be happening to the project.

I know this pretty well so moving to another system isnt an easy step for me so I can develope it myself or just stick with it as is.

I have already made quite a lot of changes and additions. I have even had an add on designed so we can send regular newsletters congaing properties which match the clients criteria and recording the results on a small cms within Joomla. This is a pretty neat solution as it just sends out nice emails to anyone on the list and keeps doing so until there are no new properties which match. Moving to another solution might mean loosing this which has really been accepted well with my clients.

Unless you have any suggestions I think I will have to stick with it. As I say maybe if anything is needed I can contract the work out to a couple of coders I know and keep it developed that way.

Hey Mark,

The same story about unanswered emails I have heard from another user.

I am aware that EZ Realty works OK as it is now and just looking forward as we are getting close to a year since the last release. CSVI 6 is coming out with EZ Realty support and not sure how much further to take it. For now it is OK

I have no other suggestions just wanted to get your take on things.

Just a quick question...does this override only work if the Re Download images is set to yes?

Thanks Roland!

This override is always in place, so always used. If you want it to only work when re-download images is set to yes you will have to wrap it in an if statement. However, you are always importing the images right?

Hi Roland,

Not really...only if the images are set to re download. This is to save server access and copying etc.


By the way I played about with V6...Only thing I noticed is theres no fname on the property import...does that mean you cannot do the image import at the same time as the property import?


Mark

Hey Mark,

In that case you will need to wrap the delete option in the redownload check.

The fname field is present in the EZ Realty import on CSVI 6. Perhaps you need to update the available fields or if it isn't there after that. Go to Maintenance -> Tasks -> Reset. After that run the update available fields and you should have the field.

Hi Roland

I tried the reset then maintenance/available fields and update button and i got:

Hello Mark,

tried the reset then maintenance/available fields and update button and i got:

It is unclear when you get this error, doing the reload or the update of the available fields.

This is an error I have never seen before but Googling around appears to indicate it has something to do with too big log files or incorrect permission on the files. You can check the Logs page in CSVI, and empty all the logs to make sure it is empty and not using too much.

If you have the Joomla debug turned on, see if it helps by turning it off before reloading the tasks and/or updating the available fields.

Hi Roland

As soon as I press the Update button the screen changes and says "Update available fields" with an animated gif saying Processing...

and immediately comes up with that message. See image!

I tried to delete all the logs but the ok button didnt do anything!

No debug running.

Hello Mark,

I tried to delete all the logs but the ok button didnt do anything!

Reported and fixed bug.

No debug running.

There is indeed no debug log because you are doing an update on the available fields.

Looking further with the error log message, it may be a file it cannot read or something. If you send me some FTP and website login details, I can check to see if I can pinpoint the issue.

Hi Roland

I am travelling at the mo so sorry i did not get back earlier!

ftp as follows:


joomla access:


Thats a zero!

Cheers
Mark

Hello Mark,

The FTP login doesn't work, can you check it please? Please private message the details.

Hey Mark,

In that case you will need to wrap the delete option in the redownload check.

Hi Roland!
Can you tell me where the if statement is or can i create a new one based on that check and if so what is the if statement i will need to use...Thanks in advance

Hey Mark,

You need to create the if statement yourself. As mentioned in my previous post where you can add the delete code, around that code you put

if ($template->get('redownload_external_image', 'image')) { }

and withing the curly braces you place the delete statement.

Does that help?
