Overwrite Item Image

Replacing an image already associated with an item requires you first modify certain Application Configuration parameters and then access the Web Options of the Item Form of the item and altering the web images there.

  1. From the eCommerce Module > Setup > Application Configuration.

  2. The AppConfig form will be displayed. Select the following AppConfig parameters - you will need to configure these to make image preview work better in your webstore:

    Image Preview AppConfig Parameters

    Name

    Config Value

    		 Description
    UseImageResize

    TRUE

    If set to true, will enable the system to automatically create the Medium, Icon and Micro sizes of the image. Images are saved in the web/images/product folder.

    If false, and Large image is loaded, a message "Do you want to use the same image for all sizes" will be prompted. Select the preferred option to proceed.

    Moreover, the LargeCreatesOthers and LargeOverwritesOthers will be discarded.
    LargeCreatesOthers

    This will enable the system to create the Medium and Icon sizes of the image. This will only work if the UseImageResize is set to True. Images are saved in the web/images/product folder.
    LargeOverwritesOthers

    TRUE

    This will enable the system to automatically overwrite the Medium and Icon sizes when a new Large image is loaded. Images are saved in the web/images/product folder.
