FAQ

General

Which products does the panel edit?

MiniShop3 products (msProduct) in the MODX 3 manager. Regular MODX resources (non-products) are not edited here.

Install and access

Panel will not open / VueTools warning

1. Install VueTools (modxpro-vue-core) from ModStore.
2. Clear the MODX cache and hard-reload the manager (Cmd+Shift+R).

“Presets” or “Import” tabs are missing

You need msbulkeditor_presets and msbulkeditor_import_export. Without the permission the tab is hidden. A direct URL goes to Products.

msbulkeditor_auth_permission_denied

Ask an admin for the required permission (view / edit / rollback / …). See Settings.

msbulkeditor_auth_modauth_invalid / session_required

Reload the manager page. Sign in again if the session expired.

Operations

msbulkeditor_apply_no_changes

Preview reported 0 changes. Check operation parameters and selection: values may already match the target.

msbulkeditor_expert_limit_exceeded

Narrow filters or raise msbulkeditor_expert_limit (mind RAM and PHP timeout).

Expert mode is missing

An admin disabled msbulkeditor_expert_mode. Enable it in system settings area msbulkeditor.

A click on an option replaces the tag list

A click on an option column saves one string and replaces the previous list. TV list / checkbox / file stay closed in the cell. Add or remove a single tag with a bulk operation. See Inline editing.

Binding wizard opened

Some products lack a TV/option binding to template or category. Complete the wizard or narrow the selection. → Binding wizard

Import and export

msbulkeditor_export_xlsx_unavailable

OpenSpout is unavailable on the server (package vendor). Export CSV or reinstall the package.

msbulkeditor_import_mapping_invalid

Map an ID column and at least one target field (price, stock, or article). Without an ID column the import does not use the current filter.

Other connector messages

Message	What to do
msbulkeditor_auth_method_not_allowed	Writes accept POST only
msbulkeditor_import_file_too_large	File is larger than 10 MB
msbulkeditor_expert_mode_disabled	Turn on msbulkeditor_expert_mode
msbulkeditor_processor_failed	Check the MODX log

Why does import not write TVs and options?

The import tab updates only price, stock, and article. Use a bulk operation on Products for TV/option.

History

No “Rollback” button

You need msbulkeditor_rollback. Rollback works for completed operations. For failed, only already applied items roll back.

History is not cleaned

The log is cleaned without Scheduler too: plugin msbulkeditor_bootstrap runs cleanup at most once a day when a manager page opens. If Scheduler is installed, the package enables the task and repeats that on every update. See Settings.

Limits

• msProduct (MiniShop3) only
• a click on an option column saves one string and replaces the tag list
• no inline edit for TV list/checkbox/file
