Hi guys,

I could really use an answer here.

Thank you,

Adrian

Hello Adrian,

- I have made a replica of your image pattern setup in a DW 9.9.4 solution, and it works as expected (see below).  What version of DW is your solution running?

Br. Michael Knudsen

Hi Michael,

We are using DW 9.9.2.

I could not find any relevant mention in the release notes for versions higher than 9.9.2 to suggest that a fix has been made afterward.

Maybe I am configuring the patterns wrongly? Can it be something wrong with the images or their format?

Thank you,
Adrian

Hello Adrian,

- could you share the content of the database field "ShopAlternativeImagePatterns" in dbo.EcomShops for the PIM warehouse?

If you suspect something to be wrong in the images, you could use the same image (that shows correctly), but with different filenames, just to quickly eliminate any error regarding image format.

Hi Michael,

This is for the EcomShop

[{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_1","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_1.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_2","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_2.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_3","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_3.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_4","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_4.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_5","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_5.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_6","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_6.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_7","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_7.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Default","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_9","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_a.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_10","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_b.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_11","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_c.jpg","width":""},{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_12","pattern":"\/{ProductNumber}_d.jpg","width":""}]

This is for PIM

[{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_1","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_1.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_2","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_2.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_3","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_3.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_4","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_4.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_5","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_5.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_6","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_6.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_7","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_7.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_8","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_8.jpg","width":""},
{"height":"","isdefault":false,"name":"Alt_9","pattern":"{ProductNumber}_9.jpg","width":""}] 

And now I think I see the issue.

The pattern list for EcomShop is limited to the first 7 rules.

And while we are at it, do I need to define separate Patterns for EcomShop and for PIM or one of them is enough? In this case, I believe the EcomShop takes precedence even for PIM

Thank you,

Adrian

Hello Adrian,

- I havn't tried to have different image pattern for PIM / Ecom, but I except it should work perfectly fine.  Have you tried to build the same image pattern for both PIM and Ecom for testing?

Br. Michael Knudsen

Hi Michael,

I will try that.

Apparently, the 2 sets of rules are impacting each other but I will see if making them identical would solve the issue.

Thank you,

Adrian
