Re: More than one product image

Did you read the FAQ?

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/faq.php?faq=cats_and_prods#faq_add_images

One tip on using Zen Cart. If you suspect that your issue has been a concern of other Zenners, do use the Search features. It will save you time and aggravation.

It also demonstrates your integrity and dedication. :wink:

Re: More than one product image

Hi Diana, Thank you for the link, I am a bit new to zencart and I iwll have to play more attention to the FAQ and search the forums, just that my languaje is spanish and I have to guess sometimes the best way to search...

I have tryied the things in the FAQ, but for some reason it is not working, I have created 2 images that go with one of the products on my store and name them spycam_01.jpg and spycam_02.jpg, now, the second image does not appear in the product description just the main one that was uploaded when I created the product.

Any idea?

I apreciate your help.

Thanks in advance.

Re: More than one product image

That should work.

Then something is amiss. Just to be sure, you have:

images/dvd/spycam.jpg
images/dvd/spycam_01.jpg
images/dvd/spycam_02.jpg

And then a larger image at:
images/large/dvd/spycam_LRG.jpg
images/large/dvd/spycam_01_LRG.jpg
images/large/dvd/spycam_02_LRG

This way works great according to Kim's A Bug's Life tutorial!

Maybe you have different extention name on images? (jpg or gif)

Re: More than one product image

Did you check your image settings in admin?

Product Info - Number of Additional Images per Row 3

Check what Bobdog says. If your main image is a .gif, your additional images must also be .gif.

(a restriction I'm not entirely happy about, myself.)

Re: More than one product image

Sounds like you named your first image fred_01.jpg and the next fred_02.jpg

That is not how the images work ...

The first image name is the "base" name ... fred.jpg

Then its little friends are:
fred_01.jpg
fred_02.jpg
fred_03.jpg
fred_abc.jpg
fred_something.jpg

Re: More than one product image

ooooooK

Here is, silly me, thanks to all for the help, I was wrong with the images names,
Thanks you Ajeh, I was naming the images with a "-" dash instead of " _ " underscore...

Wrong way: :no:

spycam.jpg
spycam-01.jpg
spycam-02.jpg

Right Way: :yes:

spycam.jpg
spycam_01.jpg
spycam_02.jpg

Now, dbrewster, It seems I dont have the "Product Info - Number of Additional Images per Row 3" on my Product Info options... hmmm
I looked around cause I thought that was the solution, let me know where I can located

One more question, how I can display the images in a more stetic way? they just appear one after another in the bottom of my product descrition

I really bless you all for your help. :thumbsup:

Julio.

there's no number of add. imag..... in product info (im using 1.3.0.1)
nevermind, found it in the Config > Images...

this option allow me to add 3 more different images to the item , right ?
