Hi there, I have a few products that don’t have a product image (yet) or in some cases will never have one.
Unfortunately the theme does not have a placeholder image and the product catalog looks strange when it’s got the products next to one another and then a gap.
Is there a workaround for getting a placeholder image?
Hi eakozel,
Try adding this function to the bottom of your functions.php file and define your placeholder with it:
/*
* goes in theme functions.php or a custom plugin. Replace the image filename/path with your own :)
*
**/
add_action( 'init', 'custom_fix_thumbnail' );
function custom_fix_thumbnail() {
add_filter('woocommerce_placeholder_img_src', 'custom_woocommerce_placeholder_img_src');
function custom_woocommerce_placeholder_img_src( $src ) {
$upload_dir = wp_upload_dir();
$uploads = untrailingslashit( $upload_dir['baseurl'] );
$src = $uploads . '/2012/07/thumb1.jpg';
return $src;
}
}
You just need to replace /2012/07/thumb1.jpg with the route to your image in your uploads folder. So something like /2013/08/yourimagename.jpg .
