Categories Field Mapping

- Category Image:Images can handle only one size among all the ones available in Sales Layer. If you choose the original one (ORG), that name must avoid using any strange characters, such as /, %, or $, because it could cause errors when it is being processed. This does not happen in other image sizes, as Sales Layer renames these with safe characters. Starting with version 2.3:
- The existing images will be compared with the new ones and their size, avoiding the use of md5 for more efficiency in less time.
- Additional product images will be saved on the server, but their clippings will be processed by a parallel CRON of ours so that the main catalog data is generated faster.
