    There is no way at the moment to automatically link an image to a product "in bulk" without creating a CSV import file as follows.

    Stage 1

    CSV file of SKU's and the name of the image contained in the products/large folder on your Bluepark site. This will link the SKU to that image.

    If you have all your images on an old site, you don't necessarily have to FTP to your Bluepark site. You can refer to them in your CSV from their old location and the CSV file will import them that way (you have to make sure you are importing them to the LARGE image location on Bluepark).

    Stage 2

    Once Stage 1 is complete, you can then create another CSV file of SKU's to create the Main, Thumbnail and Basket images using the "create" command. Their dimensions will be 300 x 300 px, 150 x 150 px and 50 x 50 px accordingly. They will be based on the already present Large image from Stage 1.
