    Default Default Images

    I am using the excel product import and most of my items do not have any images so when they are imported it is pulling in some random default images. Is there something I can change to get it to stop doing this? Thanks

    Hi

    As a quick fix, just delete the stock images from the /images/product/icon, medium and large directories.

    If many of your products are never going to have images then it would be a good idea to create a specific XML package for them that didn't try to display a product image.

    Hi Amy.

    Are you using the xml packages 'product.SimpleProduct.xml.config' for your product pages?

    There is a line of code that pulls the image through...
    Code:
    <xsl:value-of select="aspdnsf:LookupProductImage(ProductID, ImageFilenameOverride, SKU, 'medium', 1, $AltText)" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
    You could comment this out to also stop them being loaded. And generate a separate xml package for the products that do require them.

    Thanks

    Gavin
