    Default Need Larger image

    When I click on one of my products, it brings up the images of the product, its name and its description as it should.
    I would like to make the image in the upper left corner larger

    Any Suggestions?

    You can make a larger image file for the medium image, and set "medium images" to a larger size in admin > Configuration > Images. A link to your site will let us give more complete advice.

    The "bmz cache" shows that you are using Image Handler 2, which should take care of all the image sizes you want.
    You should just need to specify the maximum dimensions for the product Listing image in admin.

    On an unrelated but important point, you have many categories which have both products and subcategories. While you obviously found the loophole that lets you do this, it is a very bad idea because it will cause random oddities and errors in searches, possibly pricing and other functions.

    You should rearrange the products to only be in (sub)categories with other products.

    Thank you for the answer.

    You brought up the point of categories having both sub categories and products items which you say is bad form.

    For example I have a category named "bracelets" and in it I have two sub categories "small to average" and "large" plus all the bracelet items.

    Are you saying, I should move the individual bracelet items into the two sub categories and have no product items in the "Bracelet" category; only sub categories?

    I was going to link the individual bracelets into the two sub categories so the customer can see them both under "bracelets" and also under the sub categories.

    From what I understand you are suggesting that the items should be placed in the sub categories. Is that a correct assumption?

    Can I then link the items in the sub categories to the main category or would this create the same problem?


    Again, thanks for your helpl

    Yes, all of the products should be moved into the subcategories. You can also have a subcategory called "all bracelets" if you want, with everything linked in from the "small to average" and "large" subcats. Linking the products back into the top cat will recreate the potential for problems.

    I know it would be nice to have products and subcats all together in a category, but that is just not compatible with the structure - accommodating it would have to considerably increase the complexity of an already complex system.
