Easy Populate and Hotlinking?


verbalkent

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if hotlinking images is possible, I have a vendor that provides image links for there product images, in stead of me having to goto each product page on the vendors site and copying the image ( Imagine trying this for over 900 products) is there a way to either have easy populate download it from the sites url, or a way to hot link the image?

 

 

Also, anyone got this to work with "Extra Images" yet?

 

thnx in advance for any help.

hotlinking would require mods to the osC code. imho not worth it. another reason, if someone sees where the image is coming from, what is to prevent them from going to the vendor site to purchase there? do you really want people going to a vendor site?

thx mibble,

 

I sorted it out, got a program called image grabber, and broke the feed down into 300 record pages and grabbed the images that way..

 

aint easy, very time consuming, but hey...
