Move existing image directory

Hi,

PHP scripts are limited by your php.ini in memory limit and in processing time.
Because of these limits, we avoid as much as possible to do intensive processing in order to avoid fatal errors and crashes generated by these limits.
Moving all the images of all the products at once is a process which could do that if we were to do it.
So when you change the folder in the HikaShop configuration, it's up to you to move the files from the old folder to the new one via FTP or your cpanel or the SSH of your server.

You don't have to edit each product. Just move the files as explained above.

Hi,

1. Yes. Only the relative path is stored.
If your product image is stored in images/com_hikashop/upload/myfolder/myimage.jpg and supposing you have images/com_hikashop/upload in the HikaShop configuration, you'll have only myfolder/myimage.jpg in the database. That way, you can easily move the whole folder structure to the new place after or before you change the setting.

2. You stored the images in the folder templates/juicy/images/com_hikashop/upload/ but you entered the path images/com_hikashop/upload/ instead in the configuration. That's why HikaShop can't find the images. Enter the correct path and it will work.
