Hi Stranger, The solution
Hi Stranger,
The colours on the shopping cart page are set by the Product Attributes. These feed through to the options tab, where you need to enable each one and then set the image to correspond to the choice.
The solution might not be perfect, (we didn't write it!), we're merely letting people know how to get the module working, as there's a fair but of confusion on the Drupal Forums as to how to get it working at all.
Hopefully a better fix will be released for the module soon!
Thanks for the feedback though!

themeing
Hey,
I'm loving this module. Took me ages to figure it out. I'm extremely new to drupal. This is the first website I have ever done. I am wondering how to place
the product description beside the option image on the product page. Any help would be hugely appreciated
Here's my website

c_option_image and galleria intergration
Firstly let me apologise for a split post as i have posted something similar on the uc_option page reference http://drupal.org/node/550344
Ubercart 2 installed with drupal 6.15 and installed modules: - galleria, jcarousel, light box, views, etc...
I have created an attribute with several options of colour, i.e. red, black, blue, etc and want to display an image after each option has been selected from the drop down menu in the attributes tab. Currently when I select an attribute option it displays an image under the jcarousel thumbnails.
Please attached picture for more details.
There is one issue, is that I am using galleria for my images and jcarousel for thumbnails.
Is there any way to make uc_option_image and galleria work together so that the images from uc_option_image are used as the thumbnails for the galleria display?
Please let me know, thanks in advance.
Thanks.

That's a tricky enough one
That's a tricky enough one Stranger, I haven't had a go of trying to link the two modules but i'd say the result would give a really nice effect.
Option_image was tricky enough to get working on it's own so it could be very tricky i'd say. In fact it's one of those rare Drupal modules that should actually carry a health warning for developers. When it's working it's great but there's a lot of work to be done on it and a fair bit of digging about to find the fixes for the non-working release, that's why we posted how to do it above.
I'll ask Kev if he'd have an idea how your question.

Hi Alan,
You'll need to edit
Hi Alan,
You'll need to edit the product template and float the product image to the left or right and the description should move along side the image.
very good effort for a first website!

Float product images
Hi Shane,
Thanks for replying. I am unable to find where I could theme the product. Would it be in uc_product.. the theme css file or option images.. I am completely lost. Even with the use of firebug.
Thanks for the support

I just want to say a big thank you. This really came in handy.

it is node-product file
You have to create a file called node-product.tpl in your theme directory.
But print $node->content['option_image']['#value']; is not working for me :( though it works fine without product theming ...
For Shane's reference the basic content of node-product.tpl is something like this
<?php
// Grabs the firsts image path and sets $imagePath.
$imagePath = $node->field_image_cache['0']['filepath'];
?>
<?php if ($page == 0): ?>
<h2><a href="<?php print $node_url ?>" title="<?php print $title ?>"><?php print $title ?></a></h2>
<?php endif; ?>
<div id="node">
<?php // default image display ?>
<div id="image" style="float:right"><img src="<?php print $imagePath; ?>" alt="Title">?></div>
<?php print $node->content['option_image']['#value'];?>
<?php // product title ?>
<?php // product description ?>
<?php print $node->content['body']['#value']; ?>
<?php // list price and sell price display ?>
<div id="price">
<!--<p>List Price: <?php print uc_currency_format($node->list_price); ?></p>-->
<p>Starting Price: <?php print uc_currency_format($node->sell_price); ?></p>
</div>
<div id="cartButtons">
<?php // add to cart buttons ?>
<?php print $node->content['add_to_cart']["#value"]; ?>
</div>
</div>
<!--
<pre>
<?php // this will print the $node array at the bottom of each node take it out when finished ?>
<?php var_dump($node); ?>
</pre>
-->

also completely lost!
Hello all,
In the quest to fin where to put:
print $node->content['option_image']['#value'];
I've created a node-product.tpl.php file and also node-[product-class].tpl.php
but nothing that I put in these files seems to have any effect!
Is there something I'm missing (obviously!)

Limit to uploadable images?
Hi all,
Very helpful thread. Managed to get it up and running using your directions however, I've hit a slight snag.
I've built a site where customers can assemble their own gift baskets (hampers I think they're called on your side of the pond.)
Anyway, one basket has 6 attributes, each with 5 options. This means I want to attach a total of 30 images to one attribute. However I when get to about 20, my images stop uploading. I select my images to upload then click save, then the images don't upload. I'm guessing it has to do with a limit the developers set on the module, but I figured I'd ask here before diving into the actual code.
Any ideas anyone has would be greatly appreciated.
Again, great article and many thanks!

Image upload limits
Is there any reason why the module would limit the number of images you can upload to a single attribute?
They seem to stop uploading once I reach 20.
Any idea why?
Great article and many thanks!

Hi, I cant't think of any
Hi, I cant't think of any reason and had a quick look at the code an can't find any obvious mention to a limit of 20..... I have never had to use so many images myself so have not hit the problem. Are there any errors being reported to the drupal logs (admin/reports/dblog)?

Image upload limits
There weren't any errors in the error log. What I ended up doing was adding them to the database manually through the files table as someone did in post 44 of this thread: http://drupal.org/node/550344.
It took me a while is not the ideal solution but luckily I don't need to add these kinds of products very often.
Thanks again!!

Hazaah!
I found a way around manually adding your option images to your database: Upload your images one attribute at a time.
Example: I have a product with 4 attributes, each with 10 options. So we're talking about 40 different option images. Rather than add all the attributes through the add attributes form then try to upload all of my option images, I do this: I add the first attribute, upload my option images, then remove the attribute from the product. Then I repeat this step until I've added all of my images. Then I go back to my add attributes form and add all four of my attributes at once and voila... All the images are still in tact.
I hope this saves someone alot of time and fumbling with SQL cause it sure did for me!!

Option Images not displaying in /admin/store/settings/attributes
Great article - we got this working thanks to you.
Just wanted to point out (cause this messes me up too often), but if you're not seeing any uc_option_image stuff on the page:
/admin/store/settings/attributes)
then it's because you need to set the proper user permissions (/admin/user/permissions) to allow yourself to see it.
Thanks again!

Is there any way to show the correct image in the checkout cart
Sir,
I am using the post number #17 modified version of the option image module as depicted in your blog.After setting up the module following your instructions it is working really good on the product (node-product.tpl.php) page. However when I go to the cart page / checkout page by hitting the "add to cart" button,
the correct color of the image is not showing up. I guess this has got nothing to do with the option image module because the ubercart uc_cart module is using the first image of the images that is uploaded to the image_field cck field that comes with the default ubercart installation.
Is there any way to override the default uc_cart behavior in the template.php file so that it picks the correct image from the option image module and display it in the cart. I have a hunch that this should be one of the functions in the uc_cart.module. But I can't figure it out since I am a new comer to drupal,ubercart and php. I was also thinking about if the devel module and the dsm() function would help but could not contemplate how or where to start. If you could point me how to find or detect such things I will be highly obliged to you.
Thanks and regards,
Subhasis

Hi Andy, This is a nasty type
Hi Andy, This is a nasty type of problem to have on your first website! I am just trying to think what would stop the images from changing, one thing might a javascript problem.
If you are using Fire Fox, try using Fire Bug (http://getfirebug.com/) to see if there are any javascript errors being reported on the page either before or when an item is chosen from the dropdown.
If there is an error it might point a way forward...
Kevin.

Re: $node->content['option_image']['#value']; is not working
This might help others having similar problems.
The selector used to grab the image element is found in uc_option_image.js.
The function begin like this:
UCOI.switchImage = function(aid, input, size) {
var pid = $(input).parents('.node').attr('id');
var nid = pid.replace('node-', '');
var oid = $(input).val();
var image = $(input).parents('.content').children('img.uc-option-image');pid is the product id, nid is the node id and oid is the option id.
The image element used to switch is looked for in the immediate children of a parent of the input element (e.g. select color, size) with class 'content'.
So when you build the node-product.tpl.php make sure that you output $node->content['add_to_cart']["#value"] one level inside an element with class 'content', and that this element has the option selection inputs as one of its children.
Here is an example:
<div class='content'>
<?php print $node->content['option_image']['#value']; ?> <!-- immediate child of this div.content -->
<div class="prod_cart">
<!--show add to cart button-->
<?php print $node->content['sell_price']['#value']; ?>
<?php print $node->content['add_to_cart']["#value"]; ?> <!-- input select in this output is one of the children of this div.content-->
<!--/show add to cart button-->
</div>
</div>Or else just modify the selection query in uc_option_image.js.
e.g. : var
image = $('img.uc-option-image'); /*if there is always a single product on the page*/
HUmm,
it doesn't show the right colour in the shopping cart page. Also, it uses the filename in the {files} table to store 3 IDs. Seems like a nasty hack, but I guess it works.
I was looking for something that would replace the colour selector in on the Add-to-cart form, as this is the standard way designers think (I think).
Still some hints here on how to hook into Ubercart...
