For VirtueMart 1.1.0 stable, You need to place this code in the fly page “< ?php echo $this->vmlistAdditionalImages( $product_id, $images ) ?>”. It gives additional images as shown in the figure.

I tried it, but it won’t create the thumbnail image I specified for size. The same size thumbnail size gets publishes as was specified in the “Configuration” – “Site”. Should I unclick “Enable Dynamic Thumbnail Resizing?”.

I’m working on my first Virtuemart project, and I was going to crazy try to figure out how to add more images to the detail page. You saved my life…I was almost about to commit suicide … LOL

Does this also works with Joomla 1.5 and VirtueMart 1.4 stable version.
I tried the instructions as mentioned above but nothing is shown.

  mm it will work. But you need to make changes in your joomla template.
