Greetings,
I'm trying to add some functionality on product images, and i can do the 99% part but i have a problem on posting product_id while saving the product.
It works in product_edit_images.php if i give a manually product id for value as ;
in tmpl/product_edit_images.php
name="productid" value="8"
and in controllers/product.php
$productid = $_POST['productid'];
this works and writes to database
I can also get the product id with;
$pro_id = $this->product->virtuemart_product_id;
But if i want to post it as $pro_id, not manually written number
It doesn't write to database.
What should i do in controllers/product.php or in another file? VM version : 2.0.18a
Thanks
Most Virtuemart files do get the $product arrary in them.
you can try dumping the whole array and see what key has the product id and access it through.
or you can also use JRequest/Getvar to get the product id from get/post.

Greetings chetanmadaan,
Thanks for your kind answer, actually it posts the id defined as variable on first page. But i don't know why it doesn't process it to write to database. I have found another solution for that without changing any core file more.
I simply do the query in a pop-up in product images tab.
Thanks for your interest
