I have an existing website (LynchburgHistory.com) that is so old that the php can’t be supported anymore. I’m looking for a new solution and I think you Image Sales plugin may work. My biggest concern is that I be able to upload thousands of images that contain descriptions in the metadata and have the descriptions and title upload with the images automatically. I have about 30,000 images and can’t manually write all the captions again.
I assume this plug-in works with the woo commerce plugin and that it will work with Square as well.
Thank you for your message and for explaining your situation.
Yes, the plugin does support automatically populating titles and descriptions from image metadata, as long as the images you upload already contain that metadata (such as IPTC or EXIF fields). This makes it suitable for large libraries, and you would not need to manually re-enter captions for your images. With a collection of around 30,000 images, this approach is exactly what the feature is designed for.
You’re welcome to test this functionality on our demo site to confirm it meets your needs: https://demo.swapstack.co.ukThe plugin works alongside WooCommerce and creates digital, downloadable products, so it is compatible with any WooCommerce theme and standard WooCommerce tools. This includes Square payments, provided Square is set up and supported within your WooCommerce installation.
hi friend. site is public with your plugin, but the server has very high cpu usage. im looking at the php error log and see many rows with this. can you advice?
thanks so much
PHP Warning: session_start(): Session cannot be started after headers have already been sent in /home/website/public_html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-image-sales/admin/class-woocommerce-image-sales-admin.php on line 1258
We are looking into the session_start issue as it has been raised before. This would not cause high cpu. it is likely that the images you are uploading could contribute to a higher cpu as the server needs to manipulate images.
hello, we have many photos uploaded with the watermark option. we want to change de logo in the watermark. is there a way to regenerate this logo in prior images? or we have to upload everything again?
what happens if we turn off the watermark feature? thankyou
Currently, the watermark image cannot be changed, and we do not have a way to update it on existing images.
We’ve added this to our list of requested features, but it’s not a high-priority item at this time.
In the meantime, if you disable the watermark option, newly generated thumbnails will appear without any watermark.
hello friend: i see a picture /product that has like an AI generated description and i wonder how i did this with your plugin. cant seem to replicate it. do you know if this was possible? thank you
This plugin doesn’t include any AI features, so this functionality isn’t available

Hi Jorge,
1) This is done to help prevent image theft — we generate a random filename for added security.
2) Could you please provide a bit more information on this so I can better understand the issue?
3) I’ll look into this and follow up. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
hi Friend thankyou 1) as a good seo practice customer wants that the file image has the description of the content in the image.

3) ok great. thanks

Hi, we would like to know if it’s possible to use this plugin to sell printed images and photos (with a single printing option). We saw that there is the possibility to disable the options “downloadable” and “vitual” within the product settings. The key is that when customers place an order, they pay via PayPal but cannot download the digital file, as they will receive the printed photo/image at home. Thank you for your help.
This feature is not ready yet but we are working on it
hi friend my site says there is a limit to the upload image size of 4.7684MB
how can i enlarge this size? thanks
You need to get the server admin to update the ‘upload_max_filesize’ limit that is set in the php.ini file. if you are using a hosting provider ask them to do this for you.

Hi, I tried your demo and uploaded a photo; but the system did not recognize the image file embedded info like title, description etc.. Is there a way we can fix that and get the plugin to read file info to spare time and effort?

So this plugin will allow me to upload folders containing webp images, instead of me going through c-panel uploading it there?
The plugin will allow you to bulk upload images and will create woocommerce products allowing you to sell the images.
does that include webp images?
The plugin does support uploading of webp. Aslong as your server/host has the image magik library installed. Majority of the time it will be installed.
I bought the plugin today and installed it, but I can’t get the images to be square in the webshop. How do I get it changed, I have fixed in the general settings and tried to regenerate thumnails.
Do you have any extra documentation?
Hi. thank you for the purchase. could you please explain. do you mean that some thumbnails the watermark is not square ?
Hi, the images in the webshop are displayed in their original size and not square, like the other products in the webshop.
Hi – I’m still waiting for a reply.
Can you please send some screenshots to info@swapstack.co.uk.
I still wait for help.
We have contacted you back via email and would like to know what theme are you using.
I have not received any mail. I use Uncode.
The plugin will create thumbnails in all the sizes specified in wordpress and themes. It does not decide what size thumbnails to show this will be a setting in your theme
one question before i buy, can i bulk upload for example 200 high res images, will it automatically keep the high res images to sell in a link and automatically will create low res images to be used in the preview?
Another question, if i have metadata in the images. Will it automatically import descriptions, titles, etc into wordpress?
Do you have some video tutorials?

Hi,
I’m having issues with the /collection subpage. It shows up as a blank page with just the icons of the collections and no sidebars, menus nothing: https://i.imgur.com/eBRGpv4.jpeg also the permalinks work strangely… Seems like it’s adding an additional /collection/ to the URL making it like this: https://i.imgur.com/OcmIWPV.pngCan you help me out with this?
Additional note… I’m also unable to get products into the Cart… They either cause a freeze when I try to go to cart after adding a product to it – or after a refresh they don’t appear in the cart 
Hi Maslosky. Thank you for the purchase. Can i ask you setup a temporary account for me to investigate.
Hi, please let me know how can I share the credentials privately…
Email sent.
I have sent you an email.
Dear Sir, I bought your plugin some month ago. I installed and tested it on one site and the result is fantastic. Now my customer ask me to send the image in FTP folder. Do you think that is possible with your plugin to monitor some folder and load the image on the site? If it is necessary to modify the plugin, please let me know.
Thank you in advance
Dest Regards
Davide

Hi,
Do tou know if this plugin working with Product Vendors (https://woocommerce.com/products/product-vendors/) or a MultiVendorX (https://www.marketplace.goal-ads.com/wp-admin/plugins.php) ?
Thanks Bruno
Hi Bruno.

Thanks.
Dear, Could I put stock of products by the plugin. which limit number of purchase. I need for example to buy each image one time only or three, Is it Possible ?
Do you mean that a single image can only be purchased one time only?
Hi, I am interested in your woocommerce theme “SwapStack” and have a 2 questions about it. 1- It is essential for stock photography to provide different kinds of licenses; i.e; royalty free, one-time use license and or exclusive license; is this feature available in your theme? 2- Stock photography need to be classified as “editorial” or “creative” images, is this feature available in your theme?
Best regards Ahmed
Hi Ahmed.
There is no options explicitly used for that purpose at the moment.
It is possible to add the types of licences to the product description and use variable products with the license name to suggest what licence the customer is buying.
Hello, Could please disable the option virtual for products. this option effect the shipping methods. does not display when customers want to buy my products.
The plugin at the moment only support selling digital products.
I will look to see if i can add options to allow selling physical products
Hi, how do I create a quick view showing only the image on the shop page and categories pages to trigger a lightbox showing the image fullscreen while disabling redirection to the product details in Woocommerce?
Thanks
Hi agugentile.
Thank you for your purchase.
This plugin creates WooCommerce products. So Any plugin that is built to add quick view to Woocommerce products should work.
