That's something that we'll add in the next version of HikaShop. If you replace the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/helpers/import.php with the one in the archive below, you'll be able to do it with the column files_name of your CSV. *This attachment is hidden for guests.

Note however that it will then require Hikashop to download each image during the import. If your server restrictions are low and/or if you have a lot of products, the import will likely crash in the middle and not import all the products. 2. The path of the image should be relative to the file upload folder (that folder is located by default in /media/com_hikashop/upload/) 3.a relative 3.b it's in the configuration, in the Files section.
