i am using magento 1.9, i add images in the product sheet by magmi through urls of external site. they works fine, but i want to upload more products photo in the product that have more than 10 photos. so there is no media_gallery row in product csv file. I learn the techniques of magmi product import but doesn't know the meaning of: sku,media_gallery 00001,/image1.jpg;/image2.jpg. how to use it. So please help me to understand it.

The pattern for the media_gallery CSV field is:
a) start each gallery image with +
or -
(+
means include in gallery, -
means exclude from gallery)
b) write the image filename first followed by the image label separated by ::
eg /myImage.jpg::label for myImage
c) separate each gallery image with ;
So for one image:
sku, media_gallery
00001, +/myImage.jpg::label for my image;
And for two images
sku, media_gallery
00001, +/myImage.jpg::label for my image;+/myImage2.jpg::label for my image2;
And so on. I think you can replace the image file name with your external URL to the images but I have not tried that.
Additonal Edit following new questions below
a) Put the CSV file in the CSV folder which is normally var/import/
b) Regarding the errors, please double check your domains. This domain http://textileexport.in/admintextileexport/files/thIMG-20150317-WA0009_gyt9shk1.jpg
returns 404.
c) If the other domains are correct, try adding a /
after the +
sign because I am not sure if you need that or not. So try:
sku, media_gallery
00001, +/http://example.com/myImage.jpg::label for my image;+/http://example.com/myImage2.jpg::label for my image2;
If you are still having problems please put here a few lines from your CSV file so we can review its syntax.
