How to use my own thumbnails instead of the automatic generated?


Recommended Posts

Hello, I would like to use my own thumbnails instead of the automatic generated in subcategories and also products. Because the images are not square and the thumbnail looks bad. I will appreciate any help. Best regards,
lfortem.

You will need to overwrite the automatically generated thumbnails with your manual thumbnails. They are stored in the img/p directory of your site in the format {product_id}-{image_id}-{image_size}.jpg. Be careful not to click the Regenerate Thumbnails button in the future, since it will overwrite your manual thumbnails with the automatic ones.

Thank you very much. But do you know if there any way to do that in the backend?, because if I have thousands of products maybe it will take a long time. However, its a way, so thanks a lot. Best regards,

There is no tool in the Back Office to choose the crop area when creating thumbnails. I am not aware of any way to do this other than by hand. If you use the same ratio of width to height for all image sizes, then automatic thumbnail generation should work fine.
