Only able to link photos to one variation type

Jump to solution

Hi - I uploaded a liting today with two variation types but I am only able to link photos to one set of variations not both, which will be confusing for customers. Is anyone else having this issue?

@ToshiandBobETSYSHOP   You can only link photos to one of the two Variations we can have.

It’s not you, unfortunately that’s the way it’s designed. When I have two variations, I link the photos to the variation that is most likely to cause confusion if customers can’t see a picture for visual confirmation.

For example, in this listing: Walnut tealight holder I link the pictures to the glass holder size option, since that’s more subtle than the style option to select four or five tealights. I sure wish I could link both, though!

Yes I have the same problem and I'm sad that a fix is not available. I think I will have to add descriptive text to my photos.
