If no product image, display default image

Is there a way to display a default image if there is no image added for that product instead of listing the product name?

Thanks,

Clint

The default is to show "No Picture Available" which is actually an image itself - no_picture.gif in the /images folder. So if you replaced that with an image of your choice it would show up any place the image doesn't exist.

Thanks. What about for products that have an image file included but can't find the file? Such as file misnamed?

Thanks,

Clint

Um ... that "listing the product name" is coming from the browser: when an image doesn't load, some browsers simply display the ALT text in the image's place.

Plus, you can't have a misnamed image when you upload your images via the Zen Cart admin console, because it stores exactly the image you upload.

I just needed something simliar, just wanted cart to show the no_picture image if a mispelt image name occured, or image was deleted off server etc by accident, so made changes as follows:

copy across main_product_image.php from includes/modules/ to your includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME

then find

Code:

---

if (!defined('IS_ADMIN_FLAG')) {
  die('Illegal Access');
}

---

and underneath put

Code:

---

if (!file_exists(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $products_image)) {
$products_image ="no_picture.gif";
}

---

then copy across product_listing.php from includes/modules/ to your includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME

then find:

Code:

---


if ($listing->fields['products_image'] == '' and PRODUCTS_IMAGE_NO_IMAGE_STATUS == 0) {
          $lc_text = '';
        } else {

---

and underneath add

Code:

---

if (!file_exists(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing->fields['products_image'])) {
$products_listing_image = DIR_WS_IMAGES . "no_picture.gif";
}
else
{
$products_listing_image = DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing->fields['products_image'];
}

---

then just below that you will find two occurances of code

Code:

---

'products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing->fields['products_image'], $listing->fields['products_name'], IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_WIDTH,

---

to change to

Code:

---

'products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image($products_listing_image, $listing->fields['products_name'], IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_WIDTH,

---

thats it.
