Re: Why so many unwanted"sub pictures"

they all have the product name presentbox 5set Rosa...when you go and look at that product under admin/tools/imagehandler does it list all the images? this may be an image handler database issue.

I'm not sure what would happen if you cleared the imagehandler cache (since they are coming from there) - maybe check the imagehandler thread...

Re: Why so many unwanted"sub pictures"

They are NOT named the same.
Yes i can see them in admin/tools/imagehandler/manager.

There are only in two product pages this occore: In WD1 and WD2. And all the unwanted sub-pictures are taken from other products all named WDXX as WD4, WD5, WD10, WD22, WD25, WD26, WDxx and so on.

Re: Why so many unwanted"sub pictures"

peter it has n othing to do with the products,
it has to do with the image names,

For products_model WD1 the pictures are named WD1.png and the WANTED sub-pictures as WD1_01, WD1_02...

For products_model WD22 the pictures are named WD22.png and the WANTED sub-pictures as WD22_01, WD22_02...

And so on....

Re: Why so many unwanted"sub pictures"

I'm going to jump back in on this even though my first reply was unclear and incomplete

there could be two approaches that I know of why:

To paraphrase Merlin: forget the suffix, its the naming convention dealing with what the first product image begins with

"There are only in two product pages this occore: In WD1 and WD2."

WD1 will get images from WD10 or WD15 etc.
WD2 is getting images from WD22, WD25, WD27 etc.


Imagehandler got all screwy (technical term) - instead of deleting the product just delete the images in image handler (or remove database reference)

probably the first one which is super common and happens to just about everyone I think...:smile:

Re: Why so many unwanted"sub pictures"

no clue I dont us EP

however you will see that the WD is the leading factor in the images, thats why they are all being picked up by zen image magic

WD1 will get images from WD10 or WD15 etc.
WD2 is getting images from WD22, WD25, WD27 etc.

Ok you seems to be right ther but why does not this appares in any other products as WK, RR, JS etc etc???

Re: Why so many unwanted"sub pictures"

you may have to re-upload your images
just manually ftp them to the /images directory

Re: Why so many unwanted"sub pictures"

OK the file name is stored in the DB
open your images file and see if the images are still there,
I apologize that you feel you dont have time for this,
let this be a learning experience to NOT push buttons if you dont know what they do.
