Hi

I am developing a drupal site for my photography website. The basic idea is for me to sell photos and pictures. So in this case the photos or pictures are my products.

My problem is that i need a way to upload multiple pictures at a go and have them all show as different products, instead of uploading 1 picture at a time and then configuring it and then uploading the next picture. I would like to be able to upload 50 or more pictures at once and have all of them display as different products.

Thanks for your help

There are ways to bulk import products, there are also ways to sell nodes other than product nodes. Please search ubercart.org for details, and post there if you want further support on how to do this.

Hi

Thanks for your help the last time but i have been searching for a way to do this but to no avail. All i need is to assign a new content type named Photos as a product to ubercart. I cant find the checkbox to do so

Secondly i need to be able to upload multiple photos at once and have each appear as separate products

Can you please give me a link , or something to guide me or look at

Need your help please.

There isn't a checkbox for this. You create a new product type at admin/store/products/classes and add fields to the node type.

Bulk loading of product data is generally done via the "Feeds" module. I believe that there is a customized version or submodule for Ubercart.

Go look at ubercart.org for more information, including the forums there.

You might also wish to look at of #525612: Allow any node type to become a product.

I have recently created a module which allows bulk uploading of photos. It then automatically generates a new product for each photos. Also allows editing tags in bulk... I am thinking about publishing this module to drupal in about a month's time...

Thanks...

After a long time looking around at different places, I thought I'd share my thoughts. I went with Drupal Commerce because Commerce File has an easy feeds mapping which makes it as easy as uploading a default image field, because my client needs to upload thousands of photos at once. You can even have selectable sizes with different prices using the methods described in this topic.
