-- HikaShop version -- : 2.2.3
-- Joomla version -- : 2.5.17

I have just created a csv file to update the product images for some of the existing products in my store:

product_code,images
Kit__Bridge_-_Fieldstone,"hirstarts/ha-kits/fieldstone/Fieldstone - Bridge.png"
Kit__Bridge_-_Travelers,"hirstarts/ha-kits/gothic/Gothic - Bridge.png"
Kit__Circular_Fieldstone_Tower_-_10cm,"hirstarts/ha-kits/fieldstone/Fieldstone - 4inch Tower - 01.png"
Kit__Circular_Tower_-_8cm,"hirstarts/ha-kits/gothic/Gothic - 3inch Tower.png,Fieldstone - 3inch Tower - 02.png"

The file loaded fine and the system reported that fifty odd products had been found and updated, and one new product had been created.

Unfortunately what I now find is that these products have been renamed, as well as having their images updated. The updated name of the product is the content of the images field, without the quotes and the file type. For example:

hirstarts/ha-kits/egyptian/Gothic - Octagonal Tower - 01

You can see the results here: www.griffingrove.com.au/index.php/catego...rst-arts/kits/gothic

I have two questions. Does this mean that you must include the Name field in the CSV file? Is there an easy way to fix my product names?

Hello,
I just tested it on my end and it worked well, also regarding you csv file, the best solution will be to :
- Export your products through a CSV file
- Add your product images through this CSV file
- Import it back.

Also, note that updating your Hikashop version can be a good thing as we made a lot of fix through the new 2.3.0 version.

Hi,

Hikashop tells me that 2.2.3 is the latest stable version. When will 2.3.0 be declared stable?

Doing the Export and Import is OK except you end up with dozens of fields you don't want to change in the file. Does or will HikaShop allow you to select which fields you want exported as part of the Export process?

Hi,

www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...ashop-changelog.html

(The auto update is turned off for a few days until we have enough feedback. If you want to update anyway, download manually the update via the menu Your account>Your susbcriptions and install it via your joomla installer)

The auto update should be turn on during next week.

The export process of HikaShop export all data. If you want to export less (or different) date, you will need a little custom plugin to filter the data.
