User Guide for Odoo Opencart Bridge Multi-image Extension

Introduction

Odoo Opencart Bridge Multi-image Extension–sync multiple product images between Odoo and Opencart Websites.

Online, as well as offline shopping, offers a whole different experience to users. When customers make a purchase through offline mode, then they have the opportunity to personally feel the quality of the product as the mode offers you a chance to touch the real product before purchasing it.

On the other hand, when customers choose online ways to buy products then they are not able to check the product physically. Hence, it becomes very important for the online store owners to use effective product media on the Website especially product images.

While selling products online, the personal touch is not possible and so in order to make the product more appealing to the customers, it is imperative for the seller to use effective product media at the Website especially product images. The product images enhance the product description of the product and make it more appealing to the visitors of your e-store.
