Virtuemart Does Not Display Thumbnails

[jbenes]

Hi. My website is https://www.jberryskincare.com/index.php/products/tonics/lavender-chamomile-tonic-detail. It is running the latest version of VM and Joomla as well as PHP 5.3. I have uploaded pictures to the product details page, however, on the actual products page only the big picture is display, not the thumbnail. I can confirm that the thumbnails are being generated, as the thumbnail folder is filled with product thumbnails, they're just not being displayed properly. I have already reinstalled the components/com_virtuemart folder.

Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks!

Any luck? I'll donate $10 to anyone who helps me fix the issue.

are you using the "default", PDF or "notify" product layout in configuration->tab template or layout.
Select Default.

or make a new layout  in your home page template:

make a copy from  component/com_virtuemart/view/productdetails/ the files : default.php and default_images.php

and paste here

templates/YOURTEMPLATE/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails/

Where "YOURTEMPLATE" is the name of your current page template, like beez_20, beez5 the name of actual template.

make sure that you are selected the "default" for product layout details in configuration.

Hello,

There is no need for donation.

Inside your virtuemart template for dispaly images (productsdetails\default_images.php) you can simple change the code to display the thumbnail instead of full image.

The you should use around line 25 is:

Code Select Expand

<?php echo $this->product->images[0]->displayMediaThumb('class="product-image"',true,"class='modal'"); ?>

Hope it helps

Thanks so much! Problem solved. If you would still like the donation I'd be happy to send it.

Hello techmodule,

Please take a look on that post before some days. You can download the default_images.php and replace it in your custom template inside product details

Hope it helps you out.

vmError: Couldnt create thumb, file not found /home/pleasure/public_html/images/stories/virtuemart/product/CNVELD/MS1886/BK/BK-/MS1886-BK-S0.jpg   MY images are loaded as JPG and showing fine in large pic  does this have anything to do with it?
VIRTUEMART 2.0.20B

Joomla! version, 2.5.9.

Also tried all the above and no luck as well  I only have files in the main vm products folder do i need to load files in the resized folder?  seems it want to covert but cannot find files  images are loaded with .JPG  seems it looking for .jpg does that make a difference  but the main pics show up with .JPG?

If your shop is on a live server, the .JPG could be the problem, because unix/linux is case sensitive. I'm not shure, because I don't use thumb creation (disabled it in VM configuration), but perhaps VM looks for xxx.jpg while the large image to create the thumb from is xxx.JPG.
Also it might be related to the image path settings. For the same reason as above, CNVELD is not the same as cnveld on a live server.  (Works if you develop your site on a MS-Windows system , but not with unix/linux).
