Hi. I have a Virtuemart store manager and I am trying to export / import product images.

After importing, I see images in the media, I see them in the product administration, I see them in other components, but I do not see them on the category page and the product detail page.

I export pole SKU, images, has media.

However, when I open the product in the administration and save it without any change, the images will start to appear. Otherwise I see noimage.gif. Why?

I tried to track the items in the mySql database I don't see any difference in the data before and after saving. What can change with re-saving?

Thank you for the advice. I can't find this setting. Is it in administration? Or in a .cfg file?

is that it?

In the first tab "shop" of the config at the bottom
"Optimise sql requests for products"
But this is only available in the latest release
If you do not see it, then your release is to old and the problem is not here.

I tried to turn it off. Cleared cache. No change.

And if you use virtuemart to add a media; does it work ?

marvays

Yes.
All I have to do is open the product with the non-functional image in the front-end in the administration and save it without any changes. And all of a sudden I see photos of the product.

I don't understand why I can see them in administration, in media, on ftp, in Virtumert store manager I see them. I also see them in excel like manager. I just don't see them on the page.

Of course, when I create a test in the VM administration, I see the image.

This is just a shot in the dark, Do You have this option enabled  in VM configuration ?

Yes, I have it turned on. Should I try turning it off?

Jörgen

You could try, just to see if it makes any difference, but my guess is that it should be turned on to generate the thumbnails.

Have You tried to delete the old unused thumbnails ?

I try everything. Turn off. Turn on. Delete. The result is still the same. In the administration I see all products with pictures. Not on the web.

I also changed the template. It didn't help.
