Thanks for the solution. I actually did have closing tags on everything.

But it’s odd, this morning it started working again? Now it looks find in Mac (Chrome, Safari) and PC (Chrome).

So now w’ere good to go. I’m using the current version of WordPress.

Hey Barry,

I appreciate the quick response. Ya, I have uploaded all my images for one of my product lines already. I had no issues using the Media Uploader.

I guess I’ll have to manually attach the second image.

If you want my site is already up and running, however I have quite a bit to do still: https://www.activestatedesigns.com

Basically if you search Denver in the top bar, you’ll get 6 products but all the same design. I am trying to figure out a way to make that one product and have a dropdown on the product page to select if it’s mens, womens, american apparel, etc. Then the buy now link jumps to the correct page since I don’t host my own shopping cart. I also am planning on adding the rest of my products and t-shirt designs for more than just Colorado.

Look through the site and feel free to give me any feedback! I’d greatly appreciate it. I too would be interested to see your site and what you do.

Thanks,
Lorne

Hey Bazonline,

Well I have uploaded my images via the media library tool and uploaded them all at the same time. Now it’s a matter of attaching the second image to my posts. So it sounds like with your method you still need to manually add each image to the posts. Unless I’m misunderstanding you?

Does anyone know how to import another image that is attached to the post? The only image URL that I can get to work is the image_thumb. However I want 2 images in my posts.

Thoughts?

Hello again,

So I am trying to mass import my post via csv again. Turns out I was wrong, the header post_img, does not work ?? image_thumb is the only one I got working properly for the main image.

Does anyone have any idea what slug or tag I should use for the header to attache images to my post?

Thanks,
Lorne

Oh, and you don’t need the <img src=” tag. Just put the URL in there.

HTH,
Lorne

Hey bazonline,

Yea basically I upload my images through the media library, then if you go view your image it will show you the image URL and you just copy that and paste it. No special directory or anything needed.

Hope that helps,
Lorne

Hey Bazonline,

I have made progress on this. I got the pictures working now! Basically I have gotten the pictures attached and one picture as a featured image.

Basically name header for your featured image: image_thumb and name any other image header as: post_img. You can have multiple post_img columns depending on however many images you need to be attached. Obviously you need to upload the images first, I upload them to wordpress and then just put the URL in.

Let me know if that helps!

Any suggestions?

I’ve tried both plugins : CSV Importer and WP Export.

I can get CSV Importer to bring in custom taxonomies. I can get the image to be brought in as an attachment with WP Export, however I cannot get it to show in the post, nor can I get custom taxonomies with WP Export working.

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

Any ideas?

Well I have tried two.

The most luck i’ve had is “CSV Importer”. I have successfully imported the custom taxonomies and all custom fields except for the image. I’ve tried image url with several heading title variations but nothing works.

The other one I’ve tried is “WP Export” It has both import and export functions. However I cannot for the life of me bring in my custom taxonomies with that one. I have gotten real close with a successful image upload by using the heading: IMAGE. However, I have this error on my post page where the image should be:

Warning: fopen(https://activestatedesigns.com/?attachment_id=1467) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in /home/bourdod1/public_html/activestatedesigns.com/wp-content/themes/TheJewelryShop/lib/engine/cat_navi.php on line 1810

. When I check my media uploader, the correct image is shown as part of the gallery. So maybe I need to import it as the featured image too? I’m curious what heading in the csv file that needs to be.

So basically depending on which plugin I use, I run into different issues. If I can get the image and custom taxonomies figured out for either plugin, then I will roll with either one.

Thanks in advance,
Lorne

Hello there,

I am having the same issues bringing in images when I have a mass import via CSV Importer plugin. I am trying to bring in all my products and I can successfully get all post content including custom taxonomies and custom fields imported. However I cannot get it to pull up the images.

I have uploaded my post image here: https://activestatedesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/TEE-I-CO-Ski02_Design.jpg and it’s uploaded in media library just fine. But then I try the heading of this: csv_post_content in my .csv file with this <img src=”https://activestatedesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/TEE-I-CO-Ski02_Design.jpg&#8221; /> to call in that image. But it doesn’t work?

Does anyone have any ideas how to do this? I really need to get these images for my product loads… I have two images per product.

Thanks,
Lorne

Compass 7 I tried your method to have a custom field with the image being called in, but again no avail.

Does anyone have any ideas how to do this?
