Hi

How can I create an image control, 10+ categories with up to 15 images in each category. I need to show the image name and the image like below.

I also need to be able to select the image and have the image name shown on the cart for the product if added to the cart.

Hi @Kevin_Newbury :waving_hand: Show your work.

This is an advanced theme customization: teaching web development and building full fledge sections is beyond the scope of the forums and the courtesy of contributors time.

Start at either the theme architecture docs and look over the dawn theme repo for relevant sections, and or look at available samples online e.g. https://shopify.github.io/liquid-code-examples/ .

If you need this advanced theme customization built for you then contact me for services.
Contact info in forum signature.
ALWAYS please provide context, examples: store url, theme name, post url(s) , or any further detail in ALL correspondence.

Hi @Kevin_Newbury , thanks for reaching out.

I checked your request and would like to inform you that the design you’re looking for can vary depending on the theme you’re using. For example, the Dawn theme offers flexible options that you might find helpful when implementing such features.

I hope my information is helpful to you.
