TOPIC: Product images inside the tabs

Product images inside the tabs 8 months ago #3097

ttttchess OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 4	Hi, I want the tabs to be on top of everything (that's how much I like them), most of the info and the IMAGES have to go in the first tab. The plugin has a long list of [VMFIELD=] codes but not to show the thumb image. How can I achieve this? I tried everything, but nothing works...

I will check with Jerry and see if we can add a call in for the img element. If not, my suggestion is to remove all the elements from the theme that can't be called in by vmdTabs and then put them into the description manually.

If you go to this link:
newbookpublishing.com/to-kill-a-lion.html

You will see that the image to the left of the tabs (could have been in the tabs, but this is what the client wanted) is not the VM product image. I added it into the description and used a lightbox plugin to launch it as part of a photogallery. You can do the same thing within vmdTabs - put the image there, and remove it from the VM Theme for your flypage. That gives you total control over it anyway.

Even if we provide a call to the image, you will need to remove it from the VM Theme anyway to keep it from showing twice.

Hi, I cleaned up the whole flypage already, have a look: 16joomla.nl/kruiden2/component/virtuemart/?page=shop.product_details&category_id=39&flypage=flypage-ask.tpl&product_id=22
It would be very nice if you add a call in for the img element because that way I can just copy products without having to edit all images (and thumbs..) in descriptions.

I think I am not the only one who's gonna need this, it is just an important element that is missing in the plugin..
