metta Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I am trying to clean up the image files in the shop. I saw there is a tmp folders in the root img folder. And I saw it has category images, product images, and the little icon for the admin. Why do we have a temp folder? Which page in the shop use this folder? Thank you for the help.

shokinro Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I assume you are talking about the folder/img/tmpthis is temporary folder for file uploading.when you upload product images, supplier/manufacturer logo, and so on,it will upload to this folder first, then rename and moved to other folders.

So, do you mean we can remove all the contents inside without breaking the store?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shokinro Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 So, do you mean we can remove all the contents inside without breaking the store?? Never done that before. You can have a try, but please make a backup of files for just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shokinro Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Actually, I have did a test. It seems the images under /img/tmp are using in some place, at least the back office catalog category pages uses it. But it will be re-generated if you deleted them. for example, following imagess is generated when I access catalog tab. product_mini_6.jpg ... product_mini_10.jpg So the the result is, the images are using in some pages, but they will regenerated if you deleted them. It is better do not delete them for performance purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
