    Power Reviews Export/Import Issues

    We have been using power reviews on our site for some time. Currently, we are updating our site from a straight HTML store to a Miva Store.

    I would like to use the power reviews module this time around and hopefully this will make our process less manual when we add a product.

    I installed the module fine, but when I got to do either an automatic or manual export of our products, I get an empty data set. This is what powerrev_productfeed.csv file looks like:
    product_url page_id brand name description image_url price category in_stock

    When I try to do an automatic feed ( Automatically Import Weekly ), I get nothing to import into powerreviews. We have 94 products in our database.

    Here is what I believe the issue is: We use scene7 for our images and don't use the main image or thumbnail images in miva at all. Instead we have a custom field that I then manipulate in the code to use scene7.

    It still would be useful to use the export feature in miva for power reviews. This would give us our urls, pageids, title and description (price is also another custom field where I put range values in).

    Is this possible, or will I always have to import the products as I have done before with no input from MIVA?

    Is the whole data set empty, not just the image field?

      Yes, everything is empty. It is as if I have no products in my database.

        Can you send me a copy of the Export file and a link to your store? I'll talk with the Dev who built that for us.

            The dev who wrote this module is out of town for the weekend, so it'll probably be Monday before I know anything new.

              For posterity it's worth noting that there are 2 specific requirements to use this module:

              1. Every product must have a full sized image assigned to the full sized image field
              2. Every product must be in a category

              If all of your products are missing either or both of these requirements then your feed would come out empty.
              Thanks,
