Importing Section and Subsection Images

[matt_brown]

We feed a flat file from an access database. Our product descriptions are included in the section description to allow us to display our product images in a table.

Sections therefor look like
Main Category|Sub Category|Product Description
in the flat file.

Supplying the main image for each product in the flat file allows us to display the products in a table.

The images for the main categories must be supplied in a hierarchical import file, containing only the Section name and Image Filename. This is very easy, and I can see we would use the two imports one after the other to achieve this.

BUT HOW CAN I SUPPLY IMAGES FOR THE SUB CATEGORIES? I thought I could simply supply the section name as
Main Category|Sub Category
in the hierarchical import file. This creates new sections in the tree showing the | symbols!

Is there any way I can set up the hierarchical import to include images for items deeper in the catalogue?

I think that you need to include the details for subsection within their parent sections in the hierarchical import file.

Section SECTIONNAME
Section SUBSECTIONNAME
... details
End Section
End Section

Thanks - never thought of that!

I'll give it a go.
