v2.3 Seperate Image Directory for Products

Recommended Posts

I am using osCommerce v2.3.1 and when I generate a product and upload the image it goes in to the stock image folder but over time I will be adding hundreds of products and I need to be able to find them easily and want to add them in to different sub directories. I have checked the forum and can't find an answer to resolving this issue.

 

Any help gratefully received.

 

Thank you

I have looked through the manual and found the following information, but when I go to upload an image I am unable to type in the actual field

 

Step 1 - Create folders in your catalog/images folder to match the categories on your harddrive and also on your server. Based on the demo catalog you would have folders called dvd, gt_interactive, hewlett_packard in the catalog/images folder.

Note: Set the permissions on these additional folders to 777.


Step 2 - Upload the images to the appropriate folder on your site. 
So dvd images goes in /images/dvd, gt_interactive in /images/gt_interactive and any subcategories desired.

Step 3 - When images are added via the item description page (in the admin panel), select the location via the browse button. Right before the image name - change the backward slash to a forward slash .
