placing the same image on mutiple product pages

Hi,
New to Zen and love it but have one or two issues I can not figure out.
I want to post the same photo to multiple products. Is there an easier way to do it to just go into every prodcut and adding the image?

Are you going to upload the products?

If so you can simply use the same url for the image on every listing.

Re: placing the same image on mutiple product pages

Thank you so much for the response and please forgive my complete ignorance on teh topic....... The image is a jpeg that I am going into image handler, picking the category and then exact product that I want to add the image to. Then I add it from my hard drive as "defualt image file."

oh wait! What was I thinking.

look in the main image folder and find the no image file. Exchange that with the image you want, and then don't define an image for the product.

Just so I'm clearn. After you replace the no image file, make sure it has the same name. otherwise you have to change the code.

By not uploading an image to the product the program will think the product doesn't have an image, and will put your "no image" pic on every product.

Re: placing the same image on mutiple product pages

Assuming you have more than one set of same-image products, you need to place the image for each product individually. You can do it quicker than by browsing each time, though.

If you bulk upload all the small images directly to /images/, you can enter just the filename at the bottom of the "Products Image:" section in the product creation page. Copy and paste it into every product that uses that image, and then go on to the next set of products.
