Hi,
I'm wondering if the option to change a products image is possible when you have created the option via a product/characteristic combination because they have their own prices.

For example : luciferart.nl/nl/webshop/gladde-lijsten/hospitality-grijstint-zonder-gedicht-42

I have the images of the pictures in different colours added to the optional product that has the variants from a characteristic and used that to create a dropdown like you can see on the website. But now the image is not changing colour.

Would this even be possible or do I need to split the option into size + color so I can add the image to the color?

Hello,

let's explain this step by step :
1. When you create a Characteristic like color, the purpose is to add it to a product, this will generate Variants or sub-products.
2. When you create variant, each of its are editable with his own settings, and so it's possible to define to each variant his own price, and image exactly as the main product.

=> From this, if you create a characteristics that in his value combines the color and the dimensions, you can exactly reproduce your concrete example shown in your Url link.
Note, that this means that you have to create for each variant a value, whereas if you had the colors on one side and the dimensions on the other you just have to cross the configurations, which would be faster but actually force these two parameters to be entered separately on the frontend, through 2 dropdowns by example.

Hope this will help you in your reflections.

Regards

Hi Nicolas,

Yes, it's clear.
In my case I have to create separate dropdowns.
Was just wondering if there was something I might have missed but unfortunately not :-)

So separate is tha way to go.

Thanks.
