Force thumbnail regeneration upon product import

-- HikaShop version -- : 6.1.1

We are importing products from a CSV file using the Hikashop Products Cron Update Plugin. Also, our client is keeping a consistent image file naming scheme, meaning even if the image has changed since the last import, the file name remains the same. This appears to result in the product thumbnails not being recreated when the import occurs.

You can see from the link provided that the initial thumbnail is one image (the old image), but when clicking on the image to view the full size image its a different image (the new image.) Is there a way to force all thumbnails to be regenerated when products are imported?

Hi,

Yes. Just delete the thumbnails folder. HikaShop will then recreate the thumbnails automatically when needed.

Thank you. We've setup a cron job to empty the thumbnails folder.
