Remove Woocommerce Gallery

[melissa_232]

Hi - I’ve searched high and low and cannot find out how to display the images in the gallery to sit underneath the main product image? I think it may be an X Theme setting or code?

I’ve attached a screenshot of how they sit now (which is inside the main product image) and all I want them to do it look like a traditional Woo commerce Product page, underneath and when you click on them they change the main image (not open in a lightbox).

Is this possible??

Hello There,

Thanks for posting in!

Because what you are trying to accomplish requires a template customization, we would highly to suggest that you use a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released.

After the child theme is set up, please add the following code in your child theme’s functions.php file

// Remove product gallery slider and gallery zoom
// =============================================================================
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'remove_woo_three_support', 11 ); 
function remove_woo_three_support() {
    remove_theme_support( 'wc-product-gallery-zoom' );
    remove_theme_support( 'wc-product-gallery-slider' );
}
// =============================================================================

You should be able to edit the child theme’s functions.php file in Appearance > Editor.

Hope this helps.

Hi! Thanks for your reply, I’m yet to install a child theme and after doing a little research on the forum I’m worried that some of the customisation I have done will not transfer over properly (or if at all) when I install and activate the Child Theme. I know it’s not desirable to make changes like this, but until I work out how to safely transfer all the CSS I’ve added to the site - is there a way to get the gallery looking how I want it (without the Child Theme)??

Hi,

If you added your custom css in Theme Options > Global CSS, no need to transfer your css codes, it will be carried over when you install a child theme.

Please follow our guide below
