Simple Gallery Solution

You need to edit the

includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_document_general_info_display.php

files and remove the Main Product Image, Tell a Friend button & Reviews button and count code then save it to your overrides file.

Got it! Thanks!!

You still need a main image eg: image.jpg and then all your additional images eg: image_1.jpg etc but without the Main Product Image code it won't display the main image picture anymore.

I'm not sure I understand how you have an image code that does not display.. (Sorry if I am being dense here..)

The code block that displays the main image can be removed without affecting the function that recognizes what the main image is supposed to be. Then the additional images can be displayed as usual.

In order to display additional images you need a main image to start with, it's usually the one uploaded when you add a new product, then you put all your additional images in the same file.

Usually the main image displays at the top of the product information screen, above the product details and all the additional images display below the product info, however with the removal of the Main Product Image code the main image doesn't show up anymore, What I did was name one of my images gallery.jpg, then made another copy of it and called it gallery_3.jpg so even though the gallery.jpg image doesn't display the gallery_3.jpg does.
You can leave the code in if you like but I like the look of it without better.

Does all that make sense?

Hi Katie
This is perfect and what I have been looking for. I have a small problem which for the life of me I can't find the solution to. Having followed your instructions and those on the thread everything displays as it should except on the sub-category page where I have the thumbs for the pictures but it also shows a Price column and item name. Do you or anyone have an idea on how to get rid of them? Thanks once again

Oh well I guess it is a dead thread.........

You can choose which elements of the listing to display in admin > Configuration > Product Listing.

"but it also shows a Price column and item name"

That means your items are not being created as Document-General types, but as Document-Product or even Product-General.

Go check, and if that is the case, you will have to delete the items and start them over. You cannot change the product type of an existing item.
