LostImages

[MikeChoy]

Everything was working find before I execute the command:

 

Move images

A new storage system for product images is now used by PrestaShop. It offers better performance if your shop has a very large number of products.

 

 

Now all the images disappeared....anyway to rectify.

 

Further checking review that the image path are all wrongly assigned

 

How can I restore to before

 

Version : 1.4x

Did you turn legacy mode off and regenerate your .htaccess file? I've got this feature working on my website and I've written an article here on how to properly enable it.

 

There is no option to undo moving the images. If the above doesn't work and the images are in fact messed up, you will have to restore a backup of your img directory.

Thanks Rocky..

 

Confirmed that all images and references are all mixed up..Anyway I have relink all the images manually since not many product currently...

 

I have got mirrored site working based on 1.4x ...will monitor to see if everything is fine before porting to my existing site which still runs on 1.2version.

Hi Guys

 

Nice answer: but if I would have knewn this before, I wouldn't have changed at all!. Well in fact ther still is a problem with that new image thing:

 

I've now upgraded my prestashop to the latest release which is 1.4.4.0. Then i followed this instruction: http://www.nethercottconstructions.com/en/content/56-divide-product-images-into-subdirectories

After doing exactly this, the pictures didn't appear anymore. I was trying to specify the problem and did following steps:

 

1. I've checked the output with my special template. no image was showed
   
2. then I've swapped over to the original template and still the images didn't appear
   
3. the image source points to http://www.mydomain.com/shop/180-home/jason-butcher.jpg which tells me nothing happened with the images. at this time i didn't think that problem could be true... so i digged on
   
4. i went to the shop backend and switched off the url-rewriting feature, generated a new .htaccess with the option 1 checked (optimization) and unchecked the further two tics
   
5. because I still didn't see a picture at the frontend, i intended to clear all pictures at the backend via FTP service, went to upload one pic and then: --> holy yes: as I've tetsted the app,I saw the pictures running now in the frontend. So Dynamic seems to mainly work.
   
6. I turned the custom template on via backend and this also went pretty well after turning this template from static to dynamic
   
7. Backend-Problems remain! --> Still: The Images at the Backend don't show up in the catalog list as they did before. the directory differs in the frontend and is now http://www.mydomain.com/p/1/8/0/180-home.jpg which is basically bad, 'cos google don't like these kind of not described pictures.
   

 

The Problem still isn't solved here presta develeopers!

I've basically cleared all the 300 pictures from my server directory and uploaded them again because of this reorganisation. also, i had to switch to dynamic instead of html-url-rewriting. only this way i temporarely solved the problem.

 

If anyone knows how to really solve it and use it with url-rewriting: please let me know, 'cos this isn't good at all for search engines!

 

Thank you for the note after fixing this issue.
