Photo for product sheet and category

Post by Robx61 »

Good morning to the Forum. I wanted to report a "Bug" and if it's not a "Bug" someone please show me how to fix it.
I have created a product. In creating it I attached a photo, which I call "A", to illustrate the product both in its "category" and in the product sheet and the system created its thumbnails automatically. I completed the procedure and saved as usual. Later I decided to change the image of product A to a "B" image but photo A remained in the product sheet on the site side. I tried to clear the cache of the administrative side of the site. Anything. I tried to regenerate the preview from Phoca Cart and the regeneration was successful with photo B. But in the card and in the category photo A remains. I go to the site via FTP, following the path indicated image / phocacartproduct I look for all the related files to the thumbnails of photo A and physically delete them. Anything. Photo A on the site remains in place. Having deleted the files of photo A, I reload the image of photo B in the product sheet. Phoca Cart creates the new thumbnails. I check via FTP and the new files actually mirror photo B. When I try to upload image B to the product sheet, I notice that in the list where to choose the image that the very small thumbnail of that product reproduces photo A despite has uploaded photo B ... and in the category as in the product sheet nothing has changed ... I don't want to redo a completely new product sheet because if I decide to change all the product images I would have to do the shop all over again. Is there a remedy?

Thank you.

It sounds like some kind of caching issue.
Change image in product settings.
Save and close
Select product and recreate thumbnails.

Delete Joomla and browser cache.

Thumbnails are stored in images/phocacartproducts/thumbs

Even if you delete manually thumbnails you have to recreate them.
