1.5.3 Doesn't Upload Product Photos From .csv Spreadsheet

[sahein]

HELP! Is anyone else having the problem uploading a batch of photos from a csv file that contains numerous urls? I had no problem uploading photos from PS 1.5.2, but after I upgraded Prestashop to 1.5.3, the photos do not import at all.

 

I am very upset about this! I have thousands of products to import and cannot do them one by one, it would take weeks! I tried to roll back to the earlier PS version 1.5.2, but when I did, my whole website came down and I had to have my hosting company restore it from a backup which took all night last night, I got no sleep Now I am back to Prestashop 1.5.3 again and I still cannot import photos. Is this a common bug? Do you know if there is a patch for this or is Prestashop working on it? Does anybody know? My business is at a standstill.

 

If this is a common problem, I am surprised that Prestashop isn't working quickly to fix it. I am sure that many of you have stores with hundreds or thousands of products and having to import each photo separately, is enough to make you switch to Volusion or another platform.

Another solution :

 

To solve it, change this line:

 

$fd = fopen($temp, 'r');

By

$fd = fopen(_PS_UPLOAD_DIR_.$uniqid, 'r');

 

in AdminImportController.php file
