We'll see...Maybe we'll remove that in the future unless we found it another purpose. For the copy of products, could you try to change the line: $query = 'SELECT * FROM '.hikashop::table('file').' WHERE file_ref_id IN ('.implode(',',$all_ids).') AND file_type IN (\'product\',\'file\')'; to: $query = 'SELECT * FROM '.hikashop::table('file').' WHERE file_ref_id IN ('.implode(',',$all_ids).') AND file_type IN (\'product\',\'file\') ORDER BY file_id ASC'; in the file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/product.php ? That might be enough.

Regards, Ed")* Nicolas, Making the suggested change does keep the product images in the same order when the product is copied, but if I wanted to change only the first image (primary product image) and leave the others, the only way to do that would be delete them all, add the new primary image, then add back all other images. Is that correct?

Regards, Ed")* Another question regarding product images; When a product is copied, are copies of associated images copied as well? I thought they probably would be, but don't see any duplicates in the upload folder.

When you delete an image, hikashop will check if it is used by other entries in that table and only delete it nothing use it anymore.
