This is nice alternative to the stock display of product images at the category level. However, pulling images from Option Combinations will result in too many duplicate images. You can see this happening in your demo on the "100g Pants" where the item has 2 options: size, color. Could you modify your addon to instead pull images from a specified Product Option? For example, if the addon pulled images only from the Color option, the customer would only see unique product images for each color.

Dear 2020,

Thank you for your feedback. It is very important for us to know your opinions about our products.
I got your point. I think it is good idea. We will add special checkbox for every options. Admin will have ability to mark necessary option (for example Color) for showing.
Also we will save current algorithm. Admin will have ability to chose necessary variant of showing in add-on settings. Maybe it will be useful for some specific stores.
All it you will see in the next version of add-on. I will keep you updated about the result.
If you have any other questions or requests, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be glad to help you.
Thank you.

Nice idea,

Question, does it apply it to all products or are there options to disable on certain products, reason I ask is some of my products come in around 70 colours, which causes problems with display

Thank you. At this moment add-on shows all images for product combinations. Also add-on show additional images for product without combinations. In new version we will add show images only for selected options.

Also we can add setting for limitation quantity of thumbnails. If this solution suits you, please let me know about it.

Thank you.

Nice Idea..

I think, that the best is to add limit, some break (max_option_images_show) , that when is setted in admin panel to break function to max value applied.

For me that will be the best solution! And if you have product with 40 colors, there will be no problem to show some of them without broke the grid.

i just buy the addon, but..

I'm a little worried by the contents of func.php, the 90% of the code is some curl, that send information to your server.

Sorry for misunderstanding. At this moment add-on already has the "Max thumbnails count (default: 12)" setting. So you can limit max quantity.

Please let me explain. "90 %" does not mean that our add-on is sending all information of your store ;) It is code for working with different CS-Cart versions.
We just collect information about using our add-on (domain, version of CS-Cart, version of add-on, email who installed our add-on). You can check it yourself.
It can help us to find illegal copies of add-ons. Please view our license agreement for paid add-ons:

Anyway we guarantee the refund of ready add-ons for sale during 30 days after the purchase. If you aren’t satisfied with the add-on.
PS. Also as you know CS-Cart has similar collecting information.

Thank you for your feedback. It’s very important for us to know your opinions about our products.

If you have any other questions or requests, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be glad to help you.

I'd like to request an additional setting:

"Display thumbnails for option combinations using marked options"

This would generate swatches from the marked option, but the first matching combination image would be displayed above. This would allow us to use colorswatches for the product's Color option, but display the full corresponding product image when the swatch is clicked.

thanks,

Glen

You request is not clear for me. As I understand you need to display additional swatches for color swatches by click ?
Could you please clarify it in more detail? The examples and screen shots would be very helpful to me.

Here's a mockup of the desired new behavior:

Thank you for the clarification. It is good idea. We will add this feature in the next version of add-on. Please note it will require additional time because at this moment our team are very busy with other tasks. Hope for understanding.

Understandable - thanks for pursuing the additional feature once you have time!

Any chance this might happen before the end of the year?

thanks!
