import products from folders

-- url of the page with the problem -- : maalfoto.dk
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.2.1
-- Joomla version -- : 3.0.3
-- PHP version -- : 5.3.27
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : IE10
-- Error-message(debug-mod must be tuned on) -- : DateTime::__construct(): Failed to parse time string (jerror) at position 0 (j): The timezone could not be found in the database

I started to create a lot of products, they all have the same price and same information, it is only the images that are different, then I could use the function called import products from folders.?

But I can not get the folder into the real path to my pictures, even so I located the folder into the site via ftp then shows an error.

I have attached 3 screenshots.

Hi,
If all your products have the same price and same information, you should probably create manually 1 product, export it through a CSV file, edit this CSV file and add your other products, import back this CSV file.

PS: You should also download the last Hikashop version through our website, install it, and try it again.

Thanks for the reply.

I've tried to do it via CSV but can not get a watermark on the photos, and since it is pictures I want to sell then it is a problem is there any solution to this in the CSV?
and do you know whether it is possible to add a download function in CSV, so the picture I have in the folder are automatically loaded into the files so it can be downloaded.

I have updated to 2.2.2 it does not help when I want to load images from import folders from products.

Hi,

For the watermark, you can use a software like xnviews which has a feature to add a watermark on all the images of a folder.
And to add the images as file in order to download them, you just have to enter their path in the "files" column in the csv file.
