Hotlink and URL Product Images in MarvikShop

Hotlink and URL Product Images

This seems to be the answer that people give in the forums on internet for hotlinking images. Easy to use and super with Easy populate. It's already integraded in MarvikShop 1.0 :

define('DIR_EXT_HTTP', 'http://');

in Configure, and then calling up:

tep_image(DIR_EXT_HTTP

instead of

tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES

in product_info.php and other places. The products_image should now be changed to " www.mysite.com/images/my_image.gif ", or if hosting on another server " www.othersite.com/images/my_other_image.gif "

(And no do not linking the images unless You have specific written permission from associate vendors whose products You are selling that happen to have their images also hosted for their site.

Now added with Jpsy image uploader module. So you can link to another fileserver if you want.
