in product list page, on mouse over to show the second thumbnail..

[jean.man]

for instance, i know in product-list.tpl, this code responsible for showing the thumbnail is :
getImageLink($product.link_rewrite, $product.id_image, 'home')

now if I want the user on mouse over the thumbnail, it shows the second product image, is it possible?
It can be done by javascript I think..

however, I want to know how to I get the second image URL?
which parameters in getImageLink corresponds to the second image data?

Many thanks.

I'm looking about this with no results.

 

Did you get it working? Does someone knows how to achieve this?

Hello!

 

When listing the products the data structure containing the information about the products, holds only the cover image.

To display 2 images from the same product: either you edit the 'getProducts' function in 'classes/Category.php' (this would be a global change) either you write your own SQL query in 'CategoryController.php' (this change would affect only the product listing by category).

 

You also need to change the 'product_list.tpl'. You could have the 2 images placed upon each other (one in the front other in the back) and using Javascript/Jquery on the mouse over event you call the fadein/fadeout functions.

Thanks!

 

And to achieve this in homefeature? I forgot to mention that i need it for homefeature.

 

Thanks again!

If you want it only for the featured products on home page:

1. create the new SQL query in 'modules/homefeatured/homefeatured.php'

2. modify the HTML in 'modules/homefeatured/homefeatured.tpl'

3. include the Javascript in 'modules/homefeatured/homefeatured.tpl'

 

You will also need to add new CSS styles for the two images.
