    Is it possible to import the listings via CSV and keep the original image paths?

    We have a lot of profiles and blog posts on the site and it’s hard to locate them all to reupload to the new folder.

    As far as I know that is not possible. But I’ll get the developers to confirm. Thanks

    Do you mean to external or internal? I think either way its not possible with v1.

    I’d be exporting them from the live site to a csv and importing that into a dev version of the site I set up before putting that live.

    Seems weird that the images lose their paths

    We do things differently in v2 and this will be the case if the path is clear, if not it will have a -x in the path. V2 also has lots of features like you won’t have to even upload the images, it will pull them in automatically and you can also add titles and captions.

    Thanks,

    Is there any way to export all the images from the directory listings in one go?

    Hello,

    Images cannot be ‘exported’ exactly.

    Usually the images are retried via FTP, by grabbing the media folder for download.

    SSH can also be used with some hosts.
