    Default How to setup 1500 products -Easily!

    If products are images (not pictures of people witout their clothes on BTW {{can't say pourn word here}}), is there an easy way to upload the images with description and price without having to one at a time via the Add Product?

    I've seen the question asked many times, review the oldie but goodie doc file on prepping and uploading images, but what if images are the product and there are 1500, each with a different price, category and description?

    Some Carts have plugins using Excell - none I could see in Downloads. Is there a trick to it, or is it one-at-a-time? I know I can bulk FTP them to a directory, but according to what I've read, that's 1500 pics in one directory! Even if I berak them out into other folder and tweak category to find them, it stll, by the looks of it, means I have to click through each one to add descripotion, size, price et cetera. Is this correct?

    Thanks, for that. It resulted in 300 Hits. I've started reading the headers of 1-40 and will probably see the Internet become obsolete by the time I'm finished.

    I think you meant that accessing the site is a standard "free" - EasyPop is $65.00. and what I've already spent has made some very happy - my turn.

    Interesting - what would be the cost of your time to manually add 1500 products?
