does ~\Assets\ProductImages have to be in the CSV

Post by brick » Fri Aug 13, 2010 3:11 pm

I have uploaded hundreds of images using FTP and have used the dataport upload to provide the correct image name. Do i have to add ~\Assets\ProductImages to the CSV filed for imageUrl like so ~\Assets\ProductImages\myImage.jpg to get my images to show.

Right now the image in the store is a broken link because it points to www.myStore.com/myImage.jpg not www.myStore.com/Assets/ProductImages/myImage.jpg

Yes, you need define the image URL's similar fashion to make them work correctly.

yes, you must provide the folder where the images reside. In an exported CSV file using DatatPort, the image name has ~\Assets\ProductImages\ with the image name.
