Select multiple images at once

Hi

If I have say, 10 "additional product images" for a particular product, is there a quicker way to add them to a product?

I can bulk UPLOAD them via FTP, but it still requires individually clicking "Add new image" and finding it in the Image Manager to actually populate the product with them.

I have searched and searched for extensions but can't seem to find anything.

Help is very appreciated as almost all my products have way more than 1 image.

Yes... the easiest way is if you install a csv import & export tool... that way you could just type it all in and then upload it to your database

I've tried that method, it's not that fast really... unless there is additional ways to automate changing the image urls...

I've seen in Magento you can just select 10 items with your mouse and it will assign them to the product, why is this not possible with opencart?

Probably because it hasn't been suggested...

Batch+ integrated with ImageManager+ for OpenCart v1.5.5.x

PLANNED FOR RELEASE EXTENSION

The video better explains what Batch+ does:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvXeky2paeo

Briefly, Batch+ has two basic functions:

1. BatchUpload :: Upload images directly to folders and select/ add them automatically as additional product images. New folders for image upload can also be created from within Batch+ without loading up Image Manager.

2. BatchSelect :: Select multiple images from your already uploaded images (from different folders too) and select them as additional product images.

NO default feature of OpenCart is removed. Additional product images can be added via OpenCart's default 'Add Image' button and can then be browsed with ImageManager+ as well.

Happy OpenCarting!

see http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... 60#p386914

You still have to select one at a time, but oodles faster for me.

BTW, when uploading, you know you don't have to wait for one to upload before selecting the next image, right? I just keep uploading and closing the success windows as they come up. Much faster.
