Woocommerce 3.0 and Product Gallery

Woo 3.0 turns galleries off by default. So anyone who used the default galleries has to turn them back on. I added the snippets to functions.php from the above link and it sort of solved the issue.

Gallery still doesn’t display as it did… Sorry for the bother — this can be noted as resolved. Maybe this post will help others who utilized default galleries.

Thanks for the report, and for sharing your findings, @wpmuse!

Thanks for sharing this here! I know this has been resolved but I’m wondering about your question…

Is this something that needs to/will be addressed in A) the Genesis framework, B) specific child themes, or C) this plugin?

I’m a theme developer and just wondering if I need to add this to all my theme’s functions.php files.

As a theme developer WooCommerce now recommends that you add theme support for any gallery features you’d like native support for in your theme.

The link that @wpmuse kindly shared earlier shows how:

https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/wiki/Enabling-product-gallery-features-(zoom,-swipe,-lightbox)-in-3.0.0

If Genesis Connect adds support for these features in the future (this is not yet decided), then having them defined in your theme too will do no harm.

Copying those 3 snippets of code into my functions.php didn’t work for me. The product image for the Single Product page isn’t showing. Any other ideas?

@shantier I’ve followed up via the new topic you kindly opened here:

Did anyone have luck solving the gallery issues? I have added this to my functions.php and the images are still linking to a separate page rather than opening in a lightbox style?

Hi, Jon. The add_theme_support lines work to add the gallery back to all themes I’ve tested this with so far.

If you see no gallery after making this change and clearing any caching plugins, please feel free to open a new thread with a link to your product page as mentioned above:

Works now after re adding the code into the themes functions.php.

Great to hear! Thanks for the update.
