Hi there,
Is there anyway to add more than one photo per product? I'm selling website themes and would like to display more than one pic for each product if possible.
Thanks!

Multiple Images or Photos per Product?

jblackmon,
Here are some options you can use:
A.)You can create a page with all the photo's, demo's and so on it and just add the 'Add to Cart' button on the page.
B.)You can also add a link to a image that will take them to another page with all the information and an 'Add to Cart' or 'Buy Now Button".
With the 'fancy display option' you can only have one picture at the moment.

*** PLEASE *** Implement a feature like this.
I've purchased the plugin and sell themes as well. Having to manually create a separate WP page/post for each product is a bit cumbersome. That being said, however, for the price of this plugin v. functionality it is an OUTSTANDING value.
A little "trick" I've used to help the process is to take advantage of a feature of NextGEN where it will automatically display related photos at the bottom of a post or page based on tags.
In my case, I add a tag to each post with my product SKU (not the eStore generated ID). Then, in NextGEN I tag all the screenshots of that template/theme with the product SKU. NextGEN takes care of the rest.
It would be nice if, during the setup of each product we could supply a NextGEN tag and when you click on the image of a product displayed using "fancy" - then up would pop a slideshow of all the images tagged with that code. I'D GLADLY PAY EXTRA FOR SUCH A FEATURE!

Agreed -- this would be a great feature. Being able to include multiple photos with an item is critical!

Hi this page should explain more on this:

Hi Ivy --
I've looped back around on this after puzzling over how best to do this on my site and reading through the link that you provide here.
I agree that to some extent it helps to have freedom to design an individual product page which you can link to from the categories pages or other parts of the store. On the face of it, of course, you would have more freedom in designing it, including being able to have multiple photos which many seem to be clamoring for.
The hangup is that for many of us, it would be a huge pain to have to set up an individual product page each time we put up a product, and that having a template with with a bit more functionality (i.e., with multiple product photos) would make set up much easier. We could just upload the photos on the back end and past the shortcode into the page, and voila! (I'm using Fancy2 for example, whose look I really like, but more photos would be great).
Anyway, I just wanted to write this down since it seems like you aren't going with multiple photos because you think that it would be easier for individuals to do it themselves without a shortcode enabled template and I just wanted to put out the alternate view.
I hope this makes sense (it does in my own head anyway!) :-)

I will look into adding an option so you can specify multiple images and then when the thumbnail is clicked it lets you view all the images using the next button.

Thanks so much -- hopefully it won't be something that is super complicated on your end!

Also -- this goes without saying, I guess -- but I'm happy to be a "beta tester" for this sort of thing if you find that that would be helpful.
Thanks again!
