This is the second installation of Hika shop I work on, the first was just a test but this one will go live eventually. I found an issue where the category picture, on the top of a category page, is as large as the original picture. It seems that instead of a thumbnail for the category it displays the original large picture.

I searched the forum and that was deemed to be a bug that affected only a certain version, but I got it from the initial version I used as well as the latest version I downloaded just a few days ago.

More specifically, I first created a link from the menu but I did not setup the Hika shop options from the link. The page looked OK (or relatively so. There is another issue that I will ask about separately)

Then I went to the link Options for Hika and After I set some items there, the large cat. picture appeared. I reverted the change I made but now all the sub categories have the large picture displaying.

the link to my store page is here: seogarden.com/pear/index.php?option=com_...t=listing&Itemid=135
This page looks OK as far as the catregory picture, but only after I reverted the link option for Hika.

However, if you click on any category displayed there (Ex. seogarden.com/pear/index.php?option=com_...eno-sauce&Itemid=135 ), they all have a very large category picture at the top. What's worse, is that I don't see an easy way to get rid of it or to insert the thumbnail in its stead.

Thank you for any help in this regard.

Hi,

It's an option, in HikaShop > Display > Content menu, edit the menu listing the categories, and disable the option "Show image".

Perfect, thank you.

Should I want a smaller image there, is there a way to do that? Or should I just upload a smaller image since the category display does not show a modal winddow with the original in it?

The system simply display the image in full size. There is no option to change that.
You can upload a smaller full size version.
Otherwise, you can also limit the size with CSS like that:
.hikashop_category_image{ width: 300px; }
