CSV Image not importing

[kennymelo]

I am importing products using csv, any image url's that have spaces in them are producing errors.

I have tried using %20 and that does not work either. Is there a fix for this?

Hello Kenny, when you put a product´s image you have to put all the URL example: http://yourdomain.com/yourimagefolder/image.jpg

 

and if you want to put more than 1 image before importing CSV you have to set the delimitator, I use semicolon ";".

 

Example

 

 http://yourdomain.com/yourimagefolder/image.jpg; http://yourdomain.com/yourimagefolder/image-2.jpg; http://yourdomain.com/yourimagefolder/image-3.jpg

 

And if you have spaces it won´t work, do you mean spaces in the images name or in the url?

 

Cheers

I am using the full url. The file name doesn't have a space but the folder it's in does. For example: www.mysite.ca/Image Folder/image1.png. 

The Image Folder is causing issues..I can't rename the folder because I have a mobile application and site accessing it how it is.

Ok I see. I would recommend you to create a new folder for the images that are going to be used in the importation of the CSV.

I can't change hundreds of xml's, and code in my apps because this doesn't import like it should. There has to be a reason why it's throwing an error
