Images and Videos

The Images and Videos section allows you to do the very fundamental tasks related to product visual images and any audio files. You can upload more than just one image for each product, then set the order for them, and manage how each of them is used. For more complicated settings, you can open the image in detail view by clicking the “Base”/ ”Thumbnail” / ”Small” button and set to your preferences. The Magento default uses temporary images as placeholders until the permanent product images become available.
