Default Cubecart Product Thumbnail Question

Hi all,

Wondering is there a way to display thumbnail that's different from the picture uploaded?

e.g. I love my current thumbnail display but when clicked, I wish to show front and back of the shirt so that the customer can see what's the design at the back of the shirt.

noob.com.sg/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=1

Do I have to modify the php or there's other easy way out?

I ever tried to upload thumbnail that's created externally to the thumbnail folder but the page goes hair wire... =/

Thanks in advance.

Hi. As far as I am aware, there is no easy way to change the image in Cubecart.

I have seen thumbnails link to an external image source with Cubecart, so it obviously can be done.

Have you tried doing a search on the cubecart forums? May be that someone has already found a solution on there.

Hope this helps.

I don't know if there's a way to use a separate thumbnail image than your main product image.

When you upload the product image, the thumbnail image is automatically generated on the fly.

What you could do is upload additional product images for each product and then use the Product Images with Javascript Preview mod to show the thumbnails right below the product.

That way the customer can see and click on the thumbnails under the product to show the different views of the t-shirt that you upload.

If you really need it to work the way you described, I'm sure one of the programmers/modders at the cubecartforums.org site could whip up something to do what you described: CubeCart Unofficial Third-Party Services - CubeCartForums.org Forum (Powered by Invision Power Board)

Thanks Will.

Thanks Rodney.
Looks like that's the alternative way to make my idea works.
