thank you in advance for any tips
I would like to download some images from a site X using the the Manual way to Download the images, the issue is it will download images but it will miss also quiet a few.
And I would like to have this images but they are in a certain format and I am not sure the way to do it
a small example (site address is blanked out to protect the innocents :) where stars are a bunch of numbers and letters
https://www.****.com/en-ca/products/fresh-blue-satin-embroidered-lingerie pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=********&pr_rec_pid=********&pr_ref_pid=********&pr_seq=uniform
https://www.****.com/en-ca/products/blue-elegent-embroidered-lingerie-set?variant=4********
any tips are welcome on how to convince EPF to download the images hidden on this URLs
Best Regards

Re: I need some help
The thing you ask about is so different for every website. This is especially true for online shops (looks like you are trying to download from one). They are never the same. I can't guess what's going on with the website by looking at a couple of addresses. So if you want real advice, share the real page address. If, for some reason, you don't want to show the URL on this forum, you can send it to support@exisoftware.com.
I found this product on hellolagirl.com, but you may be talking about something else...

Hi Maksym
Thank you for taking the time to reply
Yes it is an online shop and you guessed correctly it is the website you mention,(made it to easy) :) and as for the reason I have avoided to post the websites address is that I was uncertain on any issues with forum rules posting external addresses.
I know they are not all the same, but the thumb of the rule is that they are similar and by using the manual download option I can manipulate the EPF to navigate to the Images I need. *If you can share with me the know how and where
I will love to hear for your opinion of help on a workaround on this.

Re: I need some help
I'm not sure why are you mentioning the manual download option. You want all product photos from the product page of this shop, right?

Hi
Yes .. but !!! there is always a but
I need only images @ minimum 299kb and only the *.jp* *.pn* *.webp all others are uninteresting to me so I have to use the manual filtering.
or... I am cooking with the wrong topf ?

Re: I need some help
That's what the [ Limits ] and [ Filters ] sections are there for. You can set your file size limits and avoid downloading the pictures you don't want by applying URL filters or [ Excluded Page Parts ]. Here are my quick settings. Create a project with your [ Target Files ] and select the [ Exploration type ] of [ Current page only ]. Then add the following [ Excluded Page Parts ]:
You can see all of those in the page source (Ctrl + U in your browser). That's it. That's enough to download only big photos of any product from the product page on hellolagirl.com.
Now, if you want to create projects with several (hundreds?) of product URLs, then you could save photos of different products into separate sub-folders. There are several options available for that purpose in the [ Save -> Sub-folders ] section of the project properties. The easiest one is to create a sub-folder for every starting address. But I prefer the [ Expert ] settings to create a sub-folder using the product name (from the product page address). You can do it like this:

EZ-PZ when you do it for 20+ years. Now you can paste as many product page addresses into this project and you will get only big product images into automatically-created sub-folders.
Code: Select all
1:
From: EMPTY
To: <gallery-viewer
2:
From: <div class="gallery-viewer__controls">
To: EMPTY
3:
From: <img
To: >

Hi Maksym
Thank you, and sorry for replying late.
The idea is great and explaining to way also, I short off Understand what you mean and I will experiment with this knowledge.
One of the Questions remains in my head and I want your pointers,
The Fetch XHR Req tab what good they do ? I usually clear the fields and just add all addresses from the address list try to exclude all .js or what ever I mark in my head as Junk ang take it from there.
Yes I know what you will say but I like manual control of what I do *old school* type of person I am, and I know mostly I create more problems than good but that the way I do stuff.
So bare with me and my strange questions
Thank you again
