uploading product data from Filemaker Pro

Post by crgraphics »

Is it possible to upload a whole database of products at once from a Filemaker Pro database? Also, is it possible to have more than one image assigned to a product? Thanks!

ShopSite supports upload in tab delimited and xml format. If you can save your data as a tab delimited file from Filemaker then you could upload that file.

ShopSite 10 and prior versions had 2 images per product, the main product image and a more information image.

In ShopSite 10 sp1 the ability to upload Excel format files was added. Also in 10 sp1 the ability to have up to 20 additional more information images was added.

It is possible to store multiple images

Store multiple image file names in the ProductImage field.

ie: 'image1.gif','image2.jpg','image3.png'

You then use javascript to display the image you want.
