Multiple Images partially working quick advice needed.

[Brody]

Hi guys,

VM 2.022c & J2.5.14

Using JoomlaArt template.

Adding Multiple images for the product works sort of. If I add it, a thumbnail shows up under the main medium sized image. Good. If I force my product page to use the STOCK joomla ATOMIC template, when you click on the additional thumbnails, it cycles and works. BUT when using my normal template that functionality does not work. How do I override JUST the product image code so that it works in my JA template?

Here is an example page, https://www.millerperformancecars.com/index.php/store/war-chip/miller-w-a-r-chip-detail

Please let me know. I have already copied the default_images.php file to my_site_folder/templates/ja_onepage/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails but id did not change anything. A little nudge in the right direction will greatly be appreciated.

I have attached a picture with config settings. The current settings allow my store to match my site perfectly with the exception of the checkout page reverts to a ATOMIC layout so that my state/province selection works.

You need to ask your template provider about this probably - http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=108212.0

And the lower part of your config setting isn't available.

The JA guys don't seem to helpful. I didn't post the entire Config screen because I figured it was irrelevant to my question. If anyone has experience here with this JA template and VM please let me know.

Well, to humble myself, Maxim, You probably would have pointed out to try the "Use external google Jquery Library" option if I had posted the full view of my Template config page. Turning that on did not break anything else on and allowed for the pictures to start responding properly.

LAST QUESTION,

How can I have a subtitle under the main photo instructing to "click to enlarge"

Edit default_images.php in the template overrides.

Hi All
Not the same problem here but the same subject. I have added multiple images to some products which display on the details page but not in the normal VM way, i.e. 1 main image with the extra small images below. Instead I have the main image with the extra image tight and directly below the main one, also it displays at the same size as the main one. (see image attached)

Basically I want the normal VM style, the main image above with the extra images just below that then pop-up. I have contacted the template developer but not getting any help out of them. I like the template so don't really want to look about another one at more expense, I'd prefer to donate to the "VM Project" if I can get it sorted.

It may be a simple setting in VM or it may be a bit of CSS/PHP coding but as I'm still only a newbie I don't have the experience yet.

Can anyone point me in the right direction or give a helping hand.

Thank you
FP

PS. VM 2.0.24 & J 2.5.14

Without a copy of that template and the overrides nobody can help! That is why we do not support commercial templates here. http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=108212.0  I assule you have examined the page with Firebug? http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=116620.0

OTH if you post a url then maybe somebody would see something obvious.

Hi Jenkinhill, I don't like posting url's in case it's seen as advertising or against rules. If it's ok it's a temporary one anyway here:

http://109.73.168.114/~flamingl/index.php/firewood/seasoned-softwood-logs/softwood-logs-8-x-bulk-bags-tipped-loose-detail

I'm not really familiar with doing overrides, no experience yet, but if something can be spotted easily I would appreciate any suggestions.

Than you

Edit default_images.php in the template overrides.

[jenkinhill]

I'm not really familiar with doing overrides,

Well that's what you are using. First try disabling mod_bt_login as it is loading some JavaScript that may affect the image popup.
<script src="http://109.73.168.114/~flamingl/modules/mod_bt_login/tmpl/js/jquery.simplemodal.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://109.73.168.114/~flamingl/modules/mod_bt_login/tmpl/js/default.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

If that doesn't work then you will have to look at the image display template as Maxim suggests. Or ask the template supplier - it is possible that the overrides used are not compatibgle with the current VM version.

Hi Maxim
I finally found the file (at /public_html/templates/ivaliant_joomla/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails/default_images.php if anyone else needs the same file) but with it being php I have no idea what to do, php baffles me still. I think I need a new template or else just limit it to 2 images per product.

Jenkinhill, thanks for the info, tried disabling the mod_bt_login but made no difference. I'm not sure what you meant but the popup image isn't my problem, it works ok, it's more the additional images are the same size as the primary one and they don't resize to a thumbnail under the main image.

I'll keep playing about for another while.

Thanks again
FP
