I've been hacking on this for a while, but am finally frustrated enough to ask...

Is uc_image_product a module of its own, or a contrib to the ubercard module? Specifically, where do I install it?

Once it's installed and enabled, how to I configure it? Specifically, how do I convert images into products?

Thanks.

I've been able to answer some of my own questions.

uc_image_product is a module of its own. Toss in to your regular modules directory.

It appears to be hardcoded to use the ubercart product class of 'photo'. Go to 'Store Administration'->'Products->'Manage Classes' and add one named 'photo'.

Upload your images. If you have a lot of images, try jupload, a java applet for uploading a lot of images.

Convert images into 'photo' nodes by running admin/content/uc_image_product. I don't that this page is added to your menus anywhere, but you can go there directly.

I'm still having some trouble with the resulting products (they don't a copy of the image itself!). If anyone's around and has a suggestion on this, please respond.

@#1 webmstr

There's a link under Administer > Content Management > UC Image Product

If you click on it, it'll probably tell you "No files were found" as it just checks the image module's files directory first to see if there's anything there to convert. But you probably know this by now!

Cheers for the posting on this anyway as it made me look up the source code and edit the default price to what I wanted it to be rather than 0.00 which saves a fair bit of time when uploading a load of photos at once (my site aims to sell my photos). However I've just logged a small issue that's stopping it from working perfectly...

A configuration page is created where the default price and product class can be selected.

Documentation will be created. See #815712: Create documentation for this module
