Images

In Shopware 6, you organise images using the Media Manager. You can find this via the main navigation Content > Media in your administration.

File upload in the Media Manager supports the following file types:

jpg, jpeg, png, webp, gif, svg, bmp, tiff, tif, eps, webm, mkv, flv, ogv, ogg, mov, mp4, avi, wmv, pdf, aac, mp3, wav, flac, oga, wma, txt, doc, glb

Folders

The Media Manager comes with a number of pre-installed folders in which you can organise your images.

If you upload images via upload fields (for example in Shopping Experiences), Shopware will automatically sort the images for you.

Thumbnails

In the settings of each folder, you have the option to define thumbnail sizes and the quality of the thumbnails for all images in that folder.

Shopware uses thumbnails of 400x400, 800x800 and 1920x1920 pixels by default. For product images, thumbnails with 280x280 pixels are also generated.

Manufacturer logos are available as 200x200, 360x360 and 1920x1920 pixel thumbnails.

Meta data

If you select an image, you can edit the file name in the "Meta data" section. However, we would like to draw particular attention to the "Alt text" and "Title" here. You can use these to change the alt text and meta title of the medium.

Image size

There is no general answer to the question of the perfect image size in fluid web design. It always depends on what an image is used for and how large it is displayed.

You can find more information on this in the following article:
