Add images to options

Simple, how do I add images to the options?

I want to be able to include extras such as gift wrapping, ballons etc to the product and this really needs to have images. It won't work if they are ordered as separate products.

Cheers

It would be ideal if a small thumbnail could be displayed for each option on the main product page. Each option could then have a radio button to select.

Does that make sense?

I'm a newbie to Hika, so still floundering a bit.

Thanks

I don't have a problem with a little custom coding though some guidance would be handy. I can see how I could, possibly, manually add images to the options but this wouldn't work if my client was managing the site and adding product. Is there a way the options could be set up as products and then link to those in the options?

I note that when an option is added the image for that option is displayed in the shopping cart.

Is there a way I can add the same code to the options in the option.php to display the image. All the layout stuff I can sort out.

In time I expect I'll work it out but it would be an enormous help if you could advise please.

I can display the default 'barcode' image for options cavespidertemp1.co.uk/product/cid-10 how do I now get the correct image

The code as it stands

<td class="hikashop_cart_product_image_value">

<?php if($this->params->get('show_cart_image')) ?>
<div class="hikashop_cart_product_image_thumb" >
<?php echo $this->image->display($image->file_path,true,$image->file_name,'style="margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px;display:inline-block;vertical-align:middle"'); ?>
</div>
</td>

I have borrowed code from cart.php but haven't as yet managed to work out what is missing.

Thanks for the response, I shall have a go.

Maybe something for you guys to introduce in your next upgrade.

Firstly thank you for your help

I've had a go at this and, frustratingly, can't quite make it work. I fear my PHP is not quite what it might be.

Could I ask a big favour and ask you to suggest the code that might be used in this section of option.php.

It would be a handy feature to have in your package anyway.

I shall continue to try and work this out.

Thanks

Though I have found the product_id in the table I can find no reference to the image in the same table.

I have tried to use code used in similar situations on other templates without success.

I would dearly love to get this sorted and move on with developing this shop.

All the best

$db =& JDatabase::getDBO();
$db->setQuery('select * from #__hikashop_file where file_ref_id='.$optionElement->product_id.' and file_type=\'product\' limit 1');
$image = $db->loadObject();

Any thoughts on this one please.
