Do image files still get duplicated? #8

Hi,

I'm looking for an extension that would allow one image to be assigned to multiple variants (a shoe may have 30 sizes in each color, but storing 30 copies of every image on the server is a bit redundant when we have thousands of products).

I can't tell from looking at the code here – does this extension allow variants to share the same asset file? Or does it still store the same file multiple times on the server?

Sorry for taking so long to respond. That's exactly what this extension is used for. No duplication of images to the db. You can see it in action here: http://josiesboutique.com/

Also, I'd recommend you check out https://github.com/jpdesigndev/spree_variant_options_select

It allows you to get the options select that's shown on product pages at josiesboutique.com
