When you create and/or edit a channel you also have access to number of settings which are used to configure channel behavior. Most of these settings are general, but the Shop Information-tab is only relevant for (and available on) shops.
The General-tab contains basic settings for the channel:
| Setting |
Use |
Comments |
| Name |
Set the channel name |

| Icon |

The images tab is used when your solution uses image patterns to assign images to products.
To set up image patterns:
- Check use method
- Select the folder where you images are located - optionally check search in subfolders to also match images in subfolders to products
- Specify a main product pattern and a variant product pattern. These are used to set the primary image for master products and variants
- If relevant, create a number of additional patterns to match against
Patterns can be constructed using the following product fields:
| Field |
Example |
Comment |
| ProductID |
{ProductID}.jpg |
|
| ProductNumber |
{ProductNumber}.jpg |
|
| ProductName |
{ProductName}.jpg |
|
| ProductManufacturer |
{ProductManufacturer}.jpg |
|
| VariantID |
{VariantID}.jpg |
|
| VariantComboName |
{VariantComboName}.jpg |
|
| VariantOptionLevel |
{VariantOptionLevel1}.jpg |
The name of the variant option added to the product, e.g. Green for VariantOptionLevel1 and Large for VariantOptionLevel2. |
| VariantOptionIdLevel |
|
|
| ProductEAN |
{ProductEAN}.jpg |
|
| Custom product fields |
{ProductFieldSystemName}.jpg |
Please note that only product fields are supported, not product category fields or product group fields. |
Some notes:
- You can use any combination of these fields - e.g. {ProductNumber}_{VariantOptionLevel1}.png
- You can add several patterns to a pattern field by separating them with
