Images directory and easy populate

[3dsgiftsnThings]

Hi All,

So i have a question about the images directory and easy populate.
I have my main site installed in the root directory.
I have created sub-directories and installed zencart in these directories.
In order for easy populate to find the images you must enter the image path into ep tab file. like this: images2/65-0518.jpg.
This works fine for the root directory.
However is it possible to assign the images from the root directory images folder to these sub-directory sites.
and if so what would the image path look like and what files would need to be edited if any?

Hi

Just enter the image filename if you are using the default images directory

[3dsgiftsnThings]

i placed the images in this directory: images/images2
in ep i used this url for the images (images2/watever.jpg)
i am still not able to view the images on the site,

on my main site www.3dsgifts.com i can view the images fine.
in a sub-directory i created another installation of zen-cart.
would i need to update the ep urls to match the sub-directory?

Example: 3dsgifts_all/images/images2

I am currently using images2/whatever.jpg ..this is not correct

not sure why they are not showing, i thought EP automatically used the images folder as default.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

in this case, you need images/images2/whatever.jpg in your ep

in this case, you need images/images2/whatever.jpg in your ep

I tried the images/images2/****.jpg
i am still not seeing any images.
So just to make sure we are on the same page i am going to break down the file structure on my server.
/root
/admin (main site in the root directory)
/3dsgifts_all
(secondary site inside this folder under the root directory)
/pokerstore (Third site folder in the root directory)

So if we are understanding one another in order to visit these secondary site you would enter

www.3dsgifts.com/3dsgifts_all .....or www.3dsgifts.com/pokerstore

these sub-folders act as the root for each site.
Does this help any and do you have any suggestions on how to enter the urls for the images. i have obviously uploaded all the images to the server for each site.

It doesn't matter how smart you think EP is, if you don't put the actual images up on the server, they can't be displayed.

Case in point:
This product: http://3dsgifts.com/pokerstore/index...oducts_id=1173
also found here: http://3dsgifts.com/pokerstore/index...e=products_new
is looking for this image: http://3dsgifts.com/pokerstore/image.../10-ds-1ks.jpg
But that image file doesn't exist on your server.


Of course, you have another error about missing short-description fields, etc, too, but that's an unrelated matter.
