Lets say you've accidentally deleted a bunch of products but the images are still in the media/catalog/product folder. For example this may happen if you accidentally delete an attribute set because it takes the products with it. Lets say you want to export those products from your staging environment and back into production. You would go into dataflow on staging, do the export and then on production, temporarily change this file:

code/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Convert/Adapter/Product.php

Change line 775 to

$arrayToMassAdd, Mage::getBaseDir('media') . DS . 'catalog/product/',

When you're done change it back to

$arrayToMassAdd, Mage::getBaseDir('media') . DS . 'import',

What this will do is import the product images from where they were. The csv you export from your staging environment will reference image at /l/a/etc etc... so it will work.

Don't forget the '/' at the end of catalog/product

You should place your images in media/import i.e. media/import/photo.jpg then in your csv file you just use photo.jpg
