Hello
Removing a product via the Backend doesn't remove its pictures
(both in product and resized folders).
Also:
Entry for the picture, is removed from #__virtuemart_product_media is removed, but still in #__virtuemart_media.
Also a Notice comes up:
Notice: Undefined index: remove in C:\wamp\www\vm3test\administrator\templates\isis\html\layouts\joomla\system\message.php on line 20 Call Stack #TimeMemoryFunctionLocation 10.0003257792{main}( )..\index.php:0 20.03033374832JApplicationCms->execute( )..\index.php:42 30.260318974800JApplicationAdministrator->render( )..\cms.php:257 40.260418975720JApplicationCms->render( )..\administrator.php:436 50.269219289360JDocumentHTML->render( )..\cms.php:988 60.269219289384JDocumentHTML->_renderTemplate( )..\html.php:474 70.434720089032JDocumentHTML->getBuffer( )..\html.php:696 80.435220104224JDocumentRendererMessage->render( )..\html.php:408 90.435520111776JLayoutHelper::render( )..\message.php:57 100.435720113968JLayoutFile->render( )..\helper.php:50 110.437220140032include( 'C:\wamp\www\vm3test\administrator\templates\isis\html\layouts\joomla\system\message.php' )..\file.php:97 ">

Product successfully deleted.
Hi, why should deleting a product deleting the associated product pictures too?
It would be a nice opt-in feature in deletion process, but for some reasons not a good idea:
-All products could be marked accidentally before pressing delete, so all pictures would be deleted too, when associated.
-Pictures could be reused on other products (f.e a sample picture of a metal ladder) too, there would be a huge load to find all occurrences to be sure that a picture is not used somewhere else, or if not searching, there would be broken pictures instead..
Kind regards...
Hi,
Well when adding a new product you're not able to browse existing pictures.
In this condition, orphan pictures from deleted products are useless.
Bluezeyes, exactly. The reason we think it is better to add more options to the media view.
and since when we cannot browse existing pictures? Nordmograph? It is a fundamental basic function that you can do it, maybe you never tried to search respectivly entered a space.
OK right I get it. Sorry, it was too late when I posted. I forgot about the media manager and only thought of the media uploader at the product details page. This makes sense. Consider this as solved .
