Add Picture URLs

← All WonderLister user guides

Add Picture URLs adds pictures that are already on the web — your own web space, a
supplier’s product images, a photo service — without uploading the files again. You paste the
addresses, one per line.

No screenshot. This dialog is raised from
Manage Pictures, which is itself opened from a listing’s row actions, and
the capture run photographs pages and the dialogs a page toolbar opens. There is very little to it: a box, and
three buttons.

Where to find it

Open Manage Pictures on a listing and click Add Picture
Urls
.

What is on it

Control What it does
Enter Picture Urls (One Url per line) A twelve-line box that grows as you type. One address per line; blank lines are ignored.
Save Checks the addresses and hands them back to Manage Pictures, which adds them to the end of the strip.
Clear Empties the box.
Cancel Closes without adding anything.
Every address must begin with https://. One that does not stops the whole
list — the dialog answers Each Url must start with https:// and adds none of them. An
http:// address is the usual cause, and eBay will not accept one either.

How to add pictures by address

  1. Copy the picture addresses from wherever they are hosted.
  2. Click Add Picture Urls in Manage Pictures.
  3. Paste them into the box, one per line.
  4. Check that each line starts with https://.
  5. Click Save. The pictures appear at the end of the strip.
  6. Move them into place, then click Save in Manage Pictures.

FAQ

Q: Save does nothing.
A: Either the box is empty, or a line does not start with https:// and
the message at the top of the dialog says so.
Q: Can I paste a page address rather than a picture address?
A: No. It has to be the address of the image file itself — the one you get
from “copy image address”, not the page it sits on.
Q: The picture is a broken image afterwards.
A: The address is wrong, or the host refuses to serve the image to anyone but its
own site. Upload the file with Add Local Pictures instead.
Q: Does the picture get copied, or linked?
A: The address is what is recorded. Keep the pictures where they are for as long as
the listing is live.
