Is this possible ?

I will eventually have 2.5 million books on my site and at the moment if I do not have an image for the book I just use a default image not available.

 

What I would like to do is this: Instead of putting the default image not available, I would like to just use the proper image name example 123456789.jpg and then if this image exist it will then overwrite the default image which would be set as a background picture.

 

I am not sure if I have explained this correctly.

 

At the end of the day this will enable me to just load all my books up and as I get the images I could just transfer the into my remote images folder. Stopping me having to update the products each time or in bulk with EP

 

Cheers

well, you could use something like :

 

if (file_exists(DIR_WS_IMAGES.$your_image)) {

display DIR_WS_IMAGES.$your_image

} else {

display the not available image

}
