Would anyone know how i can get the images from associated products in a configurable product to show on the frontend of a magento website. I've tried numerous ideas but none of them work.

In order to do this we need to create a extension, so that we can fetch the associated product's image when a customer select option in configurable product.

Like:- Product name is "Shirt" and you have two colors "Red and Green" with two sizes "M and L". So you should have 4 simple products i.e associated products:-

  1. Red-M
  2. Red-L
  3. Green-M
  4. Green-L

So when a customer will select a 'Red' and 'M' from select box then we will change its main image to the selected product's image i.e image of Red-M product.

  1. Go to System-> Magento Connect->Magento Connect Manager, download the extension of netstarter_imageswitcher and install it. (Eg:http://connect20.magentocommerce.com/community/Netstarter_Imageswitcher)

  2. Go to System -> Configuration , Under Catalog, select Configurable swatches and do the following:

In General settings, Set Enabled to Yes Set Product Attributes to Show as Swatches in Product Detail to the attributes which you have created.

  1. Save the configuration
