Magento

Thanks for all the help guys.
Very helpful

Put the images into the /media/import folder
Put the image name in your CSV file under the following columns – image, small_image and thumbnail in the format /myimagename.jpg (notice the forward slash).

Here is the link : http://blog.avesinfotech.com/importing-images-via-csv-file-in-magento

To prevent the exclude check box from being checked on upload this Product Model file needs to be edited.

is there another place to ftp the images to?  I dont have the media/import directory.

i did an export and i show my current images under media/catalog/product and in there it looks like magento automatically creates a two level path based on the first two letters of the file name.  There’s no way i can go create the respective folders for each and every image if i follow the export pattern.  There must be some folder where i can just dump everything?

In the words of a popular PBS Children’s program, “Just try it!”

Since you don’t mention the version of Magento you’re using, we’ll assume it works like all the others that use import/export profiles and looks for import images in media/import.

Create a folder import under your media/ folder and see if it imports the images into your media folders. Make sure it has 777 permissions so the web server can work with the files you place there.

No, you don’t want to be messing with something that Magento does automatically (store id number with two alphanumeric subfolders storage).

Hi Mike,

Thanks buddy..quite working… It was really a tough head hitting situation exploring through the web for a solution of this topic.
I really would like to say “Thank You” for this post

Hello,

i have client for magento ecommerce store and he has around 40000 products.

can you please give me a answer how can we upload all iamges in a single time instead of manually.

waiting for expert advise.

Hello! I hope I will help you somehow. I import my products to store with the help of the import service. Very cool and fast really)

It imports images too, but unfortunately you cant import only images… you need also to import 4 obligatary fields. Products ID, NAme, Descr and Price

hope that helped somehow)
