Post by: isuv on January 20, 2013, 21:48:11 PM
Hello, I've read this: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=64691.0
I would like to know, if there is possibility to resize photos in VM 2.0.16? We have many thousands of photos.

Anyway, we can try to resize images using our old joomla 1.7 + VM 1 installation. I just wanted to know...

Just happened to see your old question. Probably you solved it yourself meanwhile. But if you have to reszize a large number of images, I would recommend to use a photo editor, i.e. the free 'IrfanView', which does have batch processing.

Thanks jjk, we've solved this problem, but the information will be useful for future.

usually if you have dynamic thumbnails turned on.

and delete all the images from the resized/ frolder. Then when the page loads o front end, it will re-create the thumbnails


also, irfanview is really good
