Usually, users don't use hikashop like that. They upload the full size images in the images area of their products. The system generates automatically the thumbnails. Then, on the product page, when the users click on the thumbnails, they see the images in full size automatically. For example, like on that page: [ www.demo.hikashop.com/index.php?option=c...ow&amp;Itemid=83&amp;lang=en](http://www.demo.hikashop.com/index.php?option=com_hikashop&view=product&layout=show&Itemid=83&lang=en)

If you don't want the thumbnail on the product page, you can edit the file show of the view product via the menu Display-&gt;Views and add the line below after the first &lt;?php tag:

$this-&gt;element-&gt;images = null;

I did not know it would automatically generate the thumbnail. So if I remove the thumbnail image, then I should expect it to place a thumbnail based upon the full size image in the product description?

No. You should remove both and add the full size image in the "images" area of your product when editing it. Then, you will have a display like on that page.

Yesterday when I posted my question, I was using entirely different language than you, and it was entirely my fault. My apologies.

Later, I went back to the project and the lights came on. I made some changes, then all of the sudden my products just leapt off the page. They just *jumped* off.

**Excellent software. Bravo!!**

* I may have some additional questions about manipulating text placement on the individual product pages, and I hope that I can come back here for those answers.

THANKS!!

Hi Nicolas,

I am trying to remove the thumbnails from product description, but keep them in the category layout.
I tried to insert the code as above, but that didin't work.
in the file "show" all the php seems to be in gray, which is a little confusing. If I insert the provided code just after 1st php tag, nothing happens.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!

That should still work, unless your products have characteristics.

An other easy way to remove the image on the product page would be to simply hide the left area in CSS like that:

.hikashop_product_left_part{ display: none; }
