Hi.

I am using your module and it's great. What I miss so much is mas importing from LOCAL path. Could this be possible? I tried it at localhost and it worked. I normally wrote image import path as following

c:/somefolder/images

And it normally imported whole folder into drupal. But unfortunately on my ISP's hosting this isn't working :( It tells me, it has to be relative path from my drupal root. But how could it worked on localhost - path c:/somefolder/images ISN'T relative path from my localhost drupal root.

Why I need this? I planned image_import module usage for my users of my site. I need for them ability to upload whole folders of images. But now I must upload files via FTP, then import them in drupal. If users would have ability to import images themselves from local folder without need to upload it via FTP first, it would be great!

Is there at least possibility it could be done?

Thanks in advance

I'm not clear which of the following two features you are seeking:

  1. Ability to import multiple images from an arbitrary local directory on the server, with the choice of directory unconstrained by being underneath $DRUPAL_ROOT, or
  2. Ability to upload and import all the files from a local directory on the client, in other words, adding the upload to become part of image_import.module rather than image_import.module expecting the user to have already done the upload.

Can you clarify which of these you intend?
