Hi! I am wondering images of the product can be mass uploaded instead of uploading the images one product at a time.
I'm using NOPcommerce 3.5, as i have probably close to 1000+ items and each item has 3-5 images, it will be extremely tedious to upload the images one by one.
If your products have SKU, you can use the Excel Import for Product. You will only be able to upload 3 pictures at a time (there are fields/columns for Picture1, Picture2, Picture3). Also, you will have to first upload all the pictures to a drive/path accessible to the IIS/ nopC application. It's best to manually import 1 picture in the admin page, and then Export the product - check the path in the export; you don't want to upload your pictures to that exact path, rather create a new subfolder somewhere above it.
The import can be slow, and can timeout if you have many rows in your sheet. It's best to do small batches (multiple spreadsheets) - 500 - 1000 should be OK, but it depends on your server.
ok i got my task completed by first uploading doing the bulk import. Then i removed all columns except SKU and Picture4 and Picture5. Renamed Picture4 & Picture5 to Picture1 & Picture2 . Did the bulk upload and the 4th and 5th picture got uploaded successfully to all the products without overwriting the 1st and 2nd pictures :)
I did this also using Picture1, Picture2 and Picture3.
I had to Admin\Clear cache to see all the products pictures in the public store.
Did you experience that?
Thanks, Tony
So do i need to use columns "Picture1, Picture2, Picture3, Picture1, Picture2" in the same bulk upload file to get 5 images per product to be updated in go ?
