How to remove product pictures


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I can add pictures to products in my store, but I can't see them in my administration panel after that, so I'm not able to delete them. Where can I delete pictures?

 

You can see I have 7 images added to the product, but where to delete them?

Thank you

There seems to be something wrong with your installation. There should be some thumbnails of each image with position & edit control at the side of them.

 

I don't know why they are not showing, could be a folder permissions issue.

I'm using PrestaShop 1.4.0.17 . No, I didn't make any change to the admin files.

 

I have some products in my store that I added month ago. They are OK, I can see and delete all of the images here.

 

This problem appears in new products only.

I have the exact same problem. My images are all fine in the file system in img/p and img/tmp, they have all been sized in different sizes and all. It's just that they don't show up in the "images" tab and not in the "combinations" tab. The images tab indicates that there are images (in the tab it says "images(4)"), and they show up in the shop.

 

I'm on 1.4.0.17. This is my dev server and I haven't had time to install the latest release, but I hope the solution to this is something else than upgrading.

 

Any ideas what to look for? I have been trying out all sorts of permission for the related folder and files. Would rather not dig in to the admin code... :-)

 

Thanks!

EDIT: Gaminn - I just realised you're on the exact same version as me. Leads me to think it might be a bug in that version after all. Anyone wants to chime in and confirm/dismiss?

Hi Dave,

Yeah, I'm sure that's a very common problem/solution. My installation is on my development server so I'm not afraid to go a bit crazy with the chmod 777's and as far as I can see the non-working images has the exact same permissions as the files that are working.

Is there a good list or reference to what permissions each directory or file needs?

 

Thanks!

H micke,

 

Here's a link to the prestashop wiki regarding permissions

 

http://www.prestashop.com/wiki/Installing_And_Updating_PrestaShop_Software/

 

And this is what is recommended.

 

While you have your FTP connected to your Web hosting server, make sure the following PrestaShop folders have ‘write’ permissions (also known as “CHMOD 777” – explanation of file permissions here) but do not apply these permissions recursively (to their subfolders): /config, /upload, /download, /tools/smarty/compile. Then make sure the following folders have ‘write’ permissions and apply these permissions recursively (to their subfolders): /img, /mails, /modules, /themes/prestashop/lang, /translations

 

However, most of the seasoned prestashop users recommend all folders 755 and all files 644.

 

If you are on a dev server I would change all files and folders to 777 just to see if it fixes the problem. Then you'll know for sure if it's permission related or a coding error.

 

I would also recommend upgrading to the latest version (1.4.4.0) as there are an awful lot of bug fixes since the firs 1.4 release.

 

Good luck.

i've encountered a similar issue recently, and it was related to languages. The primary language of the site was Norwegian, and when i was added to the back office as an admin, I enabled English language and changed my preference to be english.

 

All the product images would show exactly as they do for you, meaning it would tell me the number of images, but not show the images. If i switched back to Norwegian language, the images appeared.

 

Could this be a similar issue?
