Highlights

  • Variant images on overview pages, search results and shopping worlds
  • Different display options for product variants
  • Automatic change of product image on hover

Features

  • Variant images appear automatically in overview pages, search results and shopping worlds
  • Different display options for variants such as sliders, preview images or variant texts
  • Automatic image change on hover for a direct preview of additional product views
  • Display variant images in cross-selling areas as well

According to the Shopware standard, only the main product images are displayed on category pages, search results and shopping worlds. Variant images are not visible there, which means that customers often only see the available options on the product details page.

We have therefore developed a plugin that offers the following functions:

Variant images on all overview pages
Variant images appear automatically on category pages, search results and shopping worlds. Customers can immediately see which variants are available without having to open the details page.

Flexible display options
Variants can be displayed in different formats – e.g. as image sliders, preview images or text.

Automatic change of product image on hover
The plugin offers the option of automatically changing the product image when the mouse hovers over it. This allows customers to see different views of a product on the overview pages without having to click on the detail page first.

Installation

  • Open Plugin Manager via Settings > System > Plugins.
  • Upload, install and activate the plugin.

Plugin configuration

6.7: Extensions > My Extensions > Product Variants Overview Page > Configure

Possible configurations:
  • Display options
    Variant images can be displayed as sliders, thumbnails or text.
  • Load images from
    Determines the source of the variant images – either property images (e.g. colours) or only the images stored in the storefront display.
  • Variation image size
    Specifies the size in which variant images are displayed.
  • Sorting of preview images in the slider
    Define the order of the variant images in the slider.
  • Linking of preview images in the slider
    Define where you are taken when you click on a variant image (e.g. product detail page or large image view).
  • Hide variant images
    If only one variant is available, no variant images are displayed.
  • Endless loop in the slider
    The variant slider can be set so that the images run continuously.
  • Change product image on hover
    When hovering over the product image with the mouse, a different image can be displayed automatically.
  • Cross-selling
    Variant images can also be displayed in cross-selling areas (e.g. ‘You may also like’).
  • Maximum number of variants in the slider
    Specify the maximum number of variant images to be displayed in the slider.
  • Fanned out variants
    If variants are already displayed individually in the overview, the slider can be hidden.
  • Positioning of the variant text
    Determine where the texts for the variants should appear (e.g. below the product description).
  • Variant text heading
    Your own heading for variant texts can be displayed
  • Positioning of the variant image
    Specify where the variant images should be displayed (e.g. below the product description)
  • Element height of the variant slider
    Specifies the height of the slider if no variants are found.
  • Assigned dynamic product groups
    Display variant images specifically for products from certain product groups.

Product configuration:

To ensure that the correct variant images are displayed in the shop, they must first be assigned to the variants in the admin area:
  • In the admin area, go to Catalogues > Products and open the desired variant product.
  • Switch to the Variants tab and click on the Storefront display button.
  • A window entitled ‘Variant display in the storefront’ will open. Click on Media.
  • Now select the desired property (e.g. colours).
  • Upload the appropriate image for each variant.
  • Click on Save – the variant images will now appear automatically in the frontend.

Sehr hilfreiche und schön gestaltetes Plugin und guter Support

Review with rating of 5 out of 5 stars

· 2 June 2022

Eine Plugin, dass sehr gut funktioniert und Freude macht! Es stellt die Variantenbilder sehr schön dar und es gibt auch Möglichkeiten über die Optionen das anzupassen. So einen schicken Slider bieten ähnliche Plugins nicht. Auch ein Erweiterungswunsch wurde sehr schnell und kompetent umgesetzt. Sehr guter Support!
