    Default Easy Populate and adding Images

    It took a few tries, but we got all 10,000 products on the site using Easy Populate and we're now uploading graphics in the 3 different sizes. I can get the graphics to work if I go through admin one by one. My question is: Can I edit individual products with Easy Populate? Lets say I cut and paste 500 of my products onto another spread sheet and insert the image.jpg into column B will the rest of my products remain on the site unchanged or will I lose them? And will Easy Populate attach attributes using column A (v_products_model) as the target?

    When using EP, did you add image name to each product
    within EP?

    Thanks for the replies! I didn't put in images the first time I did EP. I had planned on uploading images as I went through them later. After using EP I'm wishing I had done this in the beginning. Now I'm saving all my images and naming the same as the SKU or model name and have saved them as image, image_MED, and image_LRG in respective folders. I'm hoping that I can now go through and update the items I have images for and EP will just add the images to those items I modify. .. Rather than uploading the entire inventory file again I'd just update a few hundred at a time.

    I'm going through the Wiki information now and downloading my tab delimited files to give it a go. .. Now would be the time to stop me

    There shouldn't be any problem if you try to upload the exact same tab delimited file if you only add the image file names (with paths). I have done it many times.

    Only need to state one image in each product via EP..then
    install Image Handler..it will resize that image to med and lrg images for you.
