Product Images For WooCommerce plugin

4 min read

Overview #

The WooCommerce Product Images Plugin allows store owners to hide product images and thumbnails from the single product pages and archive (shop/category) pages. As per your store requirements, you may choose to hide images by replacing them with a custom HTML section too. For the archive pages, you can specify the number of products to be listed in each row.

Store administrators can also add a Custom Placeholder Image URL for your store. It will work for all images with WooCommerce Product Images functionality enabled for them. The feature is useful when you want to display a custom image, e.g. a picture with the text “Contact to View Product Photos”, or something similar.

The plugin accepts global as well as per-product inputs for the product images settings. So, if you want to configure different HTML content for different images as a replacement, you can do it easily using the product-specific Booster WooCommerce Product Images settings.

Overall, the WooCommerce Product Images plugin enables your online store for –

  • Hiding product images or thumbnails;
  • Displaying text or HTML in the images’ place;
  • Showing a custom image as the main image’s replacement.

Note: The input fields accepting HTML content work fine with Booster Product shortcodes.

Product Image and Thumbnails #

The Product Image and Thumbnails on Single section has options for hiding the product image and thumbnail for the following:

  • Image and Thumbnail on Single Page
  • Image from the Single Product Page
  • Thumbnails from the Single Page
  • Images on Archive Pages

For each of these options, you can set the replace HTML content, e.g. text or HTML-formatted content using the next input fields, available on the page.

To change the number of thumbnail columns per row, when thumbnails are hidden, you can enter your preference (number of columns) in the Single Product Thumbnails column.

You can set a placeholder image through its URL for your whole store. For this, scroll down to the Placeholder Image section and enter the image URL in the Custom Placeholder Image URL field.

After saving the settings, images for your products (with the Product Images settings enabled) will be replaced by this image throughout your online shop.
