Get cover image from product images

[AlluB]

Hello,

 

I want to use a image as a cover for a product, the image box that says 'cover' it's ticked but i don't know how to get that image. It makes any sense?

This does not work,

<img src="{$link->getImageLink($product.link_rewrite, $product.id_image, 'home_default')}

Thank you!

Try this instead :

<img src="{$link->getImageLink($product.link_rewrite, Product::getCover($product.id), 'home_default')}">

Now the page is blank.

 

I want every product to have it's own cover in the header. I don't know if it's make any sense.

Active the debug to see where is the error.

 

In the header of what page? Can't you use a module for that? Have you seen if the current image is already the cover? (like in product list)

In product.tpl, that's what i'm editing. It doesn't have any cover, i have the header text and above that it should be an image.

Product::getCover returns as array

 

$images = Product::getCover($id_product);
$image_url = $this->context->link->getImageLink($product->link_rewrite, $images['id_image'], ImageType::getFormatedName('home'));

I'm new to Prestashop. Can you please tell me where or how to write this code in product.tpl?

 

Thank you.

err, not really, depends on what you're trying to achieve, and your theme, the code above is for use within a module, not a template.

 

If you're trying to get the product image in the header, i.e. you want it near the top, you'll have to use a module, as Gabriel said, or create your own.

I'm using the Transformer theme.

In the PrestaShop 1.7.6, with this solution on category page showing image not available so it's not working on category page.

This method does not show homedefault image but a very very big image scalled, I do not recommend this option.

Use this code instead:

        {if $product.cover}
          {assign var='coverImage' value=Product::getCover($product->id)}
          {assign var='coverImageId' value="{$product->id}-{$coverImage.id_image}"}
          <a class="thumbnail product-thumbnail" href="{$product.canonical_url}">
            <img src="{$link->getImageLink($product.link_rewrite, $coverImageId, 'home_default')}" alt="{if !empty($product.cover.legend)}{$product.cover.legend}{else}{$product.name|truncate:30:'...'}{/if}" data-full-size-image-url="{$product.cover.large.url}" />
          </a>
        {else}
          <a class="thumbnail product-thumbnail" href="{$product.canonical_url}">
            <img src="{$urls.no_picture_image.bySize.home_default.url}" />
          </a>
        {/if}
