Product image folders
Posted: Sat Oct 31, 2009 10:58 pm
I'm looking at OpenCart as a possible replacement for osCommerce, and so far I'm impressed with the product. I have a default V1.3.2 shop running on MAMP with the Import/Export contribution.
My main concern is the product images folder structure.
There doesn't appear to be one. All the images are lumped into the one image folder together.
With several thousand products of differing manufacture, brand etc., and their images, I'd really prefer to segregate images into folders according to brand.
Something like -/image/apple/ipod/ipod.jpg
Is this possible?
I see from the downloaded xls spreadsheet that images are just named, with no path to image folder.
With osCommerce all images are uploaded via ftp to their respective folders and a similar xls spreadsheet defines the path.
This could be a deal breaker for us. Without this the image folder is going to be a nightmare to administer.
How do other users of OpenCart with thousands of images manage?
