Image Type and multistore incompatibility

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

When creating a new theme we can define Image Type sizes.
We can create different stores on a same Prestashop installation.

Each store can have its own theme.

 

But... ImageType class isn't multistore. So when you install a new theme with funny Image sizes it overrides the Image sizes of the other stores.

 

I can't believe nobody got into that problem unltill now and this behavior is still present in 1.7.

 

Could someone please look into this issue ?

 

Thanks

Your are basically right. However different image sizes may cause many problems which aren't easy to solve. Look at the product images as an example. The images are stored per product / language. Imagine you had different sizes: You needed to upload the same image for every multishop separately.

 

This leads to my conclusion:

It is meant to have same image sizes all over multishop installations. When choosing themes for multishop, it is a wise decision to think about images before installing a new theme.
