Module appearance on list of products

Position of the module
Module to show pictures on list of products uses one from two positions. The position you need to select here depends on PrestaShop version and also on theme you use.

  1. displayProductListReviews
    This is default position available in PrestaShop 1.7. If your theme supports PrestaShop theme development guidelines - you can be sure that this position will work. Please note that some templates have "theme configuration" area where you can configure the way of how theme works. You can find there options to "enable reviews on list of products" (activate it since module uses this hook) or manage layout of list of products (like it is in ApPageBuilder - where you have to activate this position as well).
  2. displayProductDeliveryTime
    it is not default position in PrestaShop 1.7 but it it frequently used by many themes.
    It's a default position in PrestaShop 1.6 - so if you are on prestashop 1.6 - select this position.

Design of he module
This option allwos to decide about design details. You can select there one option from two:

  • Classic theme
    this is design dedicated for classic theme in PrestaShop 1.7. If you will select this option, module will create layout in colors similar to default "classic" theme.
  • Universal
    this is universal design applicable for all themes, module will not use any kind of background colors that can disharmonize layout
