Catalog Merge with MySql

§

§andy

Hello,

I've setup catalog merge using MySql as the data source. But I'm
confused how I would setup one aspect.

I have a table in the database that contains my products and then a
table that has the pictures associated with those products.
I'm not sure how to setup publisher to show the pictures for the
products.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Sandy

I have found that if you put your data base and pictures into the
same folder you will save yourself some grief. In the picture
field of your data base you only need to put the picture name and
format without having to type the complete path, for example,
dog.jpg, cat.jpg and so on.

Thanks for your reply Mary.

That part I have figured out. If I had just one picture field in the
same table as my products than it would be fine. But each product
could have any number of pictures so the pictures are in their own
table and tied together by the id of the product.

Thanks again,
Sandy

Create fields for the products. The catalog merge can have any number of images.
All the pictures can be in the same folder; just be sure to give them different
names.
