Thumbnail too big

Hi,
My shop is working now, regardless of some minor issues, which I'm gonna solve by myself.

But there is one big thing, that annoys me.
When I look at the listview, I can see the thumbnails of the products. Unfortunately, the used images are very big.
I am not sure, if they are original size, but I think so.
So I am wondering, why they are not recalculated to a smaller size, which seems very obvious.
Am I missing a setting or how do I do that?

Uploading smaller images is not an option, because then I have these tiny images in the product details.

Regards
Christian

You can scale the images on upload if you configure their maximum height and/or width. You would want this especially for the preview images:
https://aimeos.org/docs/Configuration/C ... mmon/media

You can rescale existing images after modifying the configuration by running the "Rescale images" job from the Aimeos scheduler task

Thank you for your answer,

I have now entered this configuration into setup-TS:

Code: Select all

plugin.tx_aimeos.settings {
  controller.common.media.standard.files.maxwidth = 800
  controller.common.media.standard.preview.maxwidth = 240
}
After that, I have uploaded a complete new image for one product.
Cleared Cache in Typo3 and Aimeos.
It still has a big filesize. What may I have done wrong?

In TYPO3, configuration for frontend, backend and scheduler tasks have a different prefix resp. has to be added directly in the TS-Config field of the scheduler task.

Scale images in the admin backend:

Code: Select all

module.tx_aimeos.settings {
  controller.common.media.standard.files.maxwidth = 800
  controller.common.media.standard.preview.maxwidth = 240
}
In the scheduler task for rescaling existing images:

Code: Select all

controller.common.media.standard.files.maxwidth = 800
controller.common.media.standard.preview.maxwidth = 240
Please also have a look into the docs: https://aimeos.org/docs/TYPO3/Change_configuration

Great, thank you :)

that did the trick for both, new images and existing ones (with the scheduler).

I created the rescale image scheduled task and added the config

Code: Select all

controller.common.media.standard.preview.maxwidth = 350
to the TypoScript configuration field, but after running the task (which takes a few seconds, so it seems to be doing something) the images are still 240px width.

Is there anything else I need to do?

Depending on your used Aimeos version, the configuration has changed in 2019 due to support for responsive images:
https://github.com/aimeos/aimeos-core/b ... hp#L31-L43

Now use:

Code: Select all

controller.common.media.standard.previews {
  0 = {
    maxwidth = 350
  }
  1 = {
    maxwidth = 750
  }
  2 = {
    maxwidth = 1050
  }  
}
for three responsive preview image sizes.

I haven't success with this. Cleared all the caches but this isn't working for me.
Is the thumbnail in the basket generated this way as well?

The configuration options have been shortened in Aimeos 2021.x, so the "standard" part has been removed:

Code: Select all

controller.common.media.previews.0.maxwidth = 700
