PS3 ProductImage Upload

Hello,

I need your help (since I'm not an expert in CSS and/or PHP):

I'd like to have the ProductImage (large image of the product) to be uploaded without decreasing its size or resolution. As of now, it is uploaded and decreased to "fit to box" with the sizes 400x400px. I'd like to have it uploaded without any modifications. Therefore, my questions are the following:

1. Can I change it's upload size without "screwing up" the CSS or (most importantly) the layout of the ProductDetail.php page?
2. If the answer is no to the first question, is there any way to fix it?
3. Can I add the third "Image Upload" field to the ProductUpload.php page on the Admin's side with adding the column to the products DB? Will that work?

My website is www.furnitureyouwant.com. If you'll go to the ProductDetail.php and will click on the image, you'll see what the problem is.

Please advise.

Thank you so much in advance.

Best regards,

Paul.

If you leave it as the original size and the image is too large, the image will cause the structure to be off. To get around this, you would want to limit the size of the upload, but allow it to be larger.

In your admin/Products_Insert.php file, find this block of code:
<?php
// WA_UploadResult1 Params Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params = array();
// WA_UploadResult1_1 Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params["WA_UploadResult1_1"] = array(
'UploadFolder' => "../imagesupload/",
'FileName' => "[FileName]",
'DefaultFileName' => "",
'ResizeType' => "1",
'ResizeWidth' => "400",
'ResizeHeight' => "400",
'ResizeFillColor' => "#FFFFFF" );
// WA_UploadResult1_1 End
// WA_UploadResult1 Params End?>
<?php
// WA_UploadResult2 Params Start
$WA_UploadResult2_Params = array();
// WA_UploadResult2_1 Start
$WA_UploadResult2_Params["WA_UploadResult2_1"] = array(
'UploadFolder' => "../imagesupload/",
'FileName' => "[FileName]",
'DefaultFileName' => "",
'ResizeType' => "1",
'ResizeWidth' => "200",
'ResizeHeight' => "200",
'ResizeFillColor' => "#FFFFFF" );
// WA_UploadResult2_1 End
// WA_UploadResult2 Params End
?>

You can change the ResizeWidth and ResizeHeight to something that you want. You would want to make the same changes on the Products_Update.php page as well.

As for adding a 3rd upload, you would be able to do it, but you would have to make a good amount of modifications. If you would like to add additional images to the PowerStore, the easiest way would be to use PowerGallery, which has a gallery style made specifically for PowerStore. You would insert the gallery into the description.

Thank you

Dear Jimmy,

Thank you so much for your prompt response.

I'll play with the sizes to see if it works.

If I'll have any additional questions, I'll post the reply.

Again, thank you for your help.

Best regards,

Paul.

I did not mention that this will only affect newly uploaded images, so anything that is uploaded currently will not be resized.
