Can I migrate images to my AmeriCommerce store?

Migrating Images to AmeriCommerce via Data Migration Services

When performing data migration to AmeriCommerce, especially if the source cart is no longer active, you'll need to ensure your images are correctly transferred. Cart2Cart's data migration services do not directly move image files; instead, they create links to the images on the source server. To ensure your images are displayed correctly in your AmeriCommerce store, you'll need to physically move them to your AmeriCommerce server and select the "Preserve product image URLs" option during the migration setup.

Step-by-Step Guide to Manually Migrating Images

Here’s how to manually transfer your images to your AmeriCommerce store:

1. Connect to your AmeriCommerce FTP server:
   • Select SFTP as the connection type in your FTP client.
   • If using QuickConnect, enter sftp://ftp.americommerce.com in the Host field. Avoid using ftp.americommerce.com.
   • Manually specify port 22 to ensure a valid connection, even if your FTP client configures it automatically.
   • Connect to your store's FTP, then navigate to the "My Store" directory, and then to the "www" directory. This is the root folder for your AmeriCommerce website.
   • 
2. Locate and Transfer Your Images:
   • Within the "www" directory, you should find the folders containing your store's images.
   • If you intend to share images across multiple AmeriCommerce stores, place them in the Shared Folder.
3. 

By following these steps, you can ensure that your product images are correctly displayed after migrating to AmeriCommerce using Cart2Cart's data migration services.
