I've prepared all my J2store images and uploaded them to images/shop/different-categories , ready for adding and importing some products.

Is there a way within CSVi to run an export that will give me all the image URL/paths from images/shop, so that I can then easily use these within a J2stor import template?
Sorry if this has been asked before or covered in documentation - I have searched and can't find the solution :(

Thanks in advance,
Andy

Hello Andy,
RO CSVI can only export data from database and not from folders. I don't see any possible way with RO CSVI to get the image data you are looking for.
Kind regards,

Hello Andy,
With J2Store Product export you can use main_image and thumb_image fields to export images. This will get image path as stored in database. I am not sure if your products have images already but if they don't have an image and you want to get only the path as images/shop so you can add image name and import, you can set default value as images/shop in your template fields for main_image and thumb_image.

Let me know if that is what you are looking for.
Kind regards,

Tharuna

Hi Tharuna,

Thanks for your reply.
I understand what you have replied, however, this was not what I was looking for.

I just need to understand if CSVI, can run some sort of export to look at what images I have uploaded via the media manager to the folder images/shop.
These are not in the database anywhere as I have uploaded them via FTP.

I am simply being lazy and want a quick way of capturing the image paths so that I can later use them in a J2Store product import :D

Thought as much, just didn't know if there was some magic solution as know there's not much CSVi cant do :)
As above was just looking for a lazy way of producing a list of image paths.

Thanks anyway for your time.

Hey Andy,

If you have SSH access to your server you could run the command 


find images > images.txt

This will output the full tree of images and subfolders to a text file. You should be able to use that as a starting point.
Kind regards,
