Getting product images already on server to display

O.K. this might seem a foolish question but I am getting very irritated by my own stupidity. I am trying to set up some products using the admin. Fine, but no matter how I try, I can,t get the images already stored at the website I am working on https://www.daphne-dorney.co.uk to appear in the product area. Bound to be something simple, but I am working from scratch with limited knowledge or understanding and I am tired:blink: so please keep it simple.:dontgetit

Re: Getting product images already on server to display

you are entering incorrect path to your images . currently zc looking for images in images/categories/ folder .. while you have uploaded your images in images folder .
.

also you are using a page editor that is set to UTF 8 encoding and this editor adding BOM to your pages which will effect the way your pages work . although is unrelated to the original post , this is something you should look into and make sure you turn off UTF 8 off in your editor.

try to search your file for this

Re: Getting product images already on server to display

:smile:Many thanks Tony, just got to looking at your answers. being a stubborn sob, I figured out the first bit with the paths. The next prob turned out to be as follows: a + b = c, where a = logged in to admin, b = connected to server via my favourite FTP and c = chaos at server end. L.O.L. I am still struggling with the BOM bit though. FAQs tell me the header.php MUST be in UTF 8? :frusty: I'm going to try it your way again. Oh yeh, any ideas why my view larger images come up super large, like off the page?? :cry:
I'll get the hang of this if it kills me!:laugh:
