Is bulk upload of images possible?

Ive just started to build a new site, by using easy populate i have uploaded all my products from my old site into my new site, but none of the images show up, so i thought it would be an easy job of uploading the image folder from the old site to the new using ftp , but that didnt work either. Any ideas on how i can upload all the images in one go rather then going into the new category section of admin and manually adding them one by one.

Cheers
Ben

Ben,

As far as I know that should work ~ ftp the images from your computer to the images folder on your server.

What problems, errors are you getting?

Hi

I dont get any error messages, instead of the image showing it displays a small square with three little coloured shapes in the middle of it. and if i view image description it says the correct image name.

Re: Is bulk upload of images possible?

Ive just gone through the images, and i think i have figured out the problem, it appears that not all of the images from my old site got ftp'd sp what i'll do is start adding some more products via easy populate to see if their images work. I'll re-post when im done.

Thanks

It is working fine now, it must have been a batch of images that didnt upload that caused my confusion.

Thanks
