Is there any way to change thumbnail type from 'text' to 'display as image'. I can't rebuild the whole thing after spending time & money getting it set up to work with PayPal Advanced!

Is there any way to change thumbnail type from 'text' to 'display as image'. I can't rebuild the whole thing after spending time & money getting it set up to work with PayPal Advanced!

eCart 5.07 on Win8-64bit system

I thought it was set up correctly but I guess I missed this one extremely annoying step - don't judge, my first ever attempt at a shopping cart. I had also initially deleted 'weight column (not needed) but it came back and no option to delete it now.

If it's not possible, I'll just have to live with it.

both of these can be accomplished by editing the the cart display code by hand

In design View, right click on the weight column header, and select Table -> Delete Column

for the thumbnail, select the thumbnail text and co to code view. the code will look similar to:
<?php echo $eCart5->DisplayInfo("Thumbnail"); ?>

add an image tag around that
<img src="<?php echo $eCart5->DisplayInfo("Thumbnail"); ?>" />

you may want to add a hight or width as well.

Viewing code on cart page - added attachments so you can see what I have.

you may have to add the path to the thumbnails folder:

<img src="images/path/<?php echo $eCart5->DisplayInfo("Thumbnail"); ?>" />
