How I get product image thumb by produt ID?

[moonaway]

Hi!
I make 'Review Module' for VM3 (VM2.6+), but have some trouble with get image of CHILD product who do not have the image (because the image is at the parent product).

Now I use the code:

Code Select Expand


$product = $productModel->getProductSingle($item->virtuemart_product_id);
$productModel->addImages($product,1);

....then....

echo $product->images[0]->file_url_thumb;

But it's don't work for child products...  If I use 'getProduct' instead of 'getProductSingle' then everything will works, but I want to find a solution which will be better for performance...

Perhaps it is necessary to correct the function "getProductSingle" ??

PS: I'm ready to share the module with all those who help solve the problem

You should just not use getProductSingle, use getProduct.
getProductSingle loads exactly one Product, no Parents and similar.  that means if you load a child with getProductSingle, you get an almost empty Product.
