This extension is particularly useful in environments where there are multiple vendors or when admins need to manage product listings more efficiently, ensuring that the product pages don't become cluttered with excessive images.
The Soft Solid Restrict Amount of Product Images (ss_vendor_restrict_images) extension is an excellent tool for store owners who want to maintain control over the number of images added to product pages, especially in Multi-Vendor environments. By limiting the number of images for products, descriptions, and promotional texts, this extension ensures that product pages remain clean, professional, and fast-loading, providing a better shopping experience for customers. Furthermore, with the ability to set vendor-specific image limits, it allows for flexible and scalable management of vendor content, promoting fair usage and encouraging vendors to opt for higher-tier plans for additional benefits.
Extension to CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor allows you to limit amount of images that can be attached to products and their descriptions by vendors (in all Multi-Vendor versions) or store admins (in all CS-Cart versions).
We start from installing an extension:
For CS-Cart stores, amount of photos that can be attached to product, its short description, long description and promo text is set in add-on configuration. Here we also define text that will replace redundant images.
For Multi-Vendor version, amount of photos can be set for each vendor plan separately. If store does not use vendor plans, a value from add-on configuration is used,
If vendor or Admin will try to add too many photos to product, they will be deleted and notification will be shown.
When too many images will be added to product's short description, long description or promo text, images over limit will be replaced with text defined in add-on configuration.
Key Features and Workflow:
- Installation and Configuration:
- After installing the extension, store admins can configure how many images can be added for a product, its short description, long description, and promotional text. The configuration page allows for easy customization of these limits.
- Configuration for CS-Cart Stores:
- General Configuration: For stores using the CS-Cart version, the Admin can define the maximum number of images that can be attached to:
- Product Images: Main product images.
- Short Description: Images included in the product's brief description.
- Long Description: Images in the extended product description.
- Promo Text: Images in promotional text sections.
- Admins can also set a default replacement text that will be used if the image limit is exceeded. This text will appear in place of the redundant images.
- General Configuration: For stores using the CS-Cart version, the Admin can define the maximum number of images that can be attached to:
- Configuration for Multi-Vendor Stores:
- In Multi-Vendor stores, the image limits can be configured differently for each vendor plan. This allows different vendors to have varying image limits depending on their subscription or plan type. If the store does not use vendor plans, the default value set in the add-on configuration will apply to all vendors.
- Vendor plans offer flexibility to control how many images different types of vendors can use for their products.
- Image Restrictions and Notifications:
- If a vendor or Admin attempts to upload more images than allowed, the excess images will be automatically deleted, and the user will receive a notification informing them that they have exceeded the allowed image limit.
- This helps to maintain consistency and prevents clutter on the product pages.
- Replacing Excessive Images in Descriptions:
- If a vendor or Admin adds too many images to the short description, long description, or promo text sections of a product, the extra images will not be deleted. Instead, they will be replaced with the predefined replacement text that was configured during setup. This ensures the content remains consistent without losing valuable product information.
- Example Workflow:
- A vendor attempts to upload 6 product images for a product, but the limit set for the product images is 5. The extension will automatically remove the extra image and notify the vendor that they have exceeded the image limit.
- Similarly, if the vendor tries to add too many images to the product description fields, those extra images will be replaced with a simple text message that was set up in the configuration.
Benefits:
- Maintains Clean and Professional Product Pages: Limiting the number of images per product ensures that product pages do not become overcrowded with images, which could negatively affect the user experience and page load times.
- Vendor Flexibility in Multi-Vendor Stores: By allowing different image limits for each vendor plan, store owners can create tiered vendor packages where higher-tier plans allow for more images, offering incentives for vendors to upgrade to better plans.
- Customizable User Notifications: The extension provides customizable notifications to inform vendors and admins when they exceed the image limits, ensuring that users are aware of any issues with their product listings.
- Better Control Over Content: Admins have greater control over the type and quantity of content vendors can add to their product pages. This helps maintain a consistent and organized catalog across the entire store.
