Changing Images

Post by chalvorsen » Mon Nov 24, 2008 1:23 pm

How do you get the images to change when the customer makes a selection? I cannot find this anywhere.

Example: Customer chooses the color red for a shirt (the image is red shirt as standard image)
If the customer then choose the color white for the shirt, how do you make it so the image automatically changes to white?)

If you set the options up as swatches and put in an image for the thumbnail and the main swatch image, the product picture will change.
If you are using dropdowns for the options, the code in this old post might still work:

At 7.03, I edit a product, set up options, edit options and add the URL for swatches and images, click 'show swatches'. According to every post I see on the forums, this should cause the product image to change when the swatch is clicked but it does not work. Am I missing something?

Never Mind. I found out that my client is using a custom productimages which is overriding the swatch image switch.

Thanks anyway.

Just because someone doesn‘t love you the way you want them to, doesn‘t mean they don‘t love you with all they have.
