I would like to add a custom folder when magento creates the path for a product image. If image name is image.jpg the path will be ../media/catalog/product/i/m/image.jpg. What I need is ../media/catalog/product/i/m/CUSTOM_FOLDER/image.jpg.

Basically I need to find the .php that create this image path when the product is created and edit it.

Thanks.

  • I don't really understand the aim behind the type of URL but if you can clear some more, then may be we can help you in different way?

I think everything happens in Mage_Catalog_Model_Product_Attribute_Backend_Media::addImage.

Look for the line

$fileName       = $dispretionPath . DS . $fileName;

where dispretionPath is /i/m and $fileName is image.jpg in the example you gave. Try to insert something betweeen them.

You may also need to modify some code below that line.

  • It didn't work. Have you tried it yourself? Anyways, I needed this because my images are been overriding when they have the same name. However it was not by Magento's fault but MAGMI image processor.

  • I haven't tried this. I just poked a bit in the code to see where the file is uploaded. But I have a feeling that Magmi does it differently, so even if you change the way the image path is stored you will probably still get issues.

  • Yes, you're correct. I'm already talking with dweeves, MAGMI developer. By the way, I tried your awnser with MAGMI and also directly in Magento.
