Hi @Dtks30, welcome to the Community. Can you provide a little more information on what you're looking for?

Are you using the Online Store or needing to add photos to your items, perhaps elsewhere? Let us know!

Hello @samtastastics! Can you tell me a bit more about what happens when you try to upload a picture to an item?

To add images to the Point of Sale app on your phone:

Tap the three horizontal lines in the upper left.
Tap Items > All Items
Tap Create Item or select and existing item
You’ll see a grey box with Tap To Edit > tap this box to choose a photo from your phone, or take a new photo of your merchandise.

If you're seeing an error or using the Dashboard to upload images please let me know!

I would like to know if it is possible to add a picture to an items variable?

Hey @PureBlissBakery

That's not an available feature at this time, but I can see how it could make things easier for businesses.

I'm guessing you'd use the variation images for specific types of baked goods? Can you provide some detail on how this would be valuable for your business?

To make the square transactions faster for the customer I made a catagory for pastries. I then created 'Rolls'. We sell several types of 'Rolls', Maple Glazed Cinnamon Roll, Orange Roll, Raspberry Roll, Cinnamon Roll. I created these as variations of rolls since I cannot seem to creat a subcatagory of a subcatagory. Is this even possible??? Example as follows:

catagory: Pastry>

Roll>Picture

Cinnamon Roll>Picture

Maple Glaze>Picture

Cream Cheese>Picture

Glazed>Picture

Naked (No Glaze)>Picture

Scones>Picture

Lemon Poppyseed>Picture

Blueberry>Picture

If there was a way to attach pictures to variations It would go even faster! This is paramount when you have customers lining up in the front and out the door.

Hello @PureBlissBakery! A maple glazed cinnamon roll sounds amazing. 😋

Currently we don't offer the ability to create sub categories or add pictures to variations. Although, I think it would make for a good feature request for the exact reason you mentioned!

I'll make sure to share the suggestion with our Item Library Team! 😄

Variation Photos

SimoniM — Wed, 11 Dec 2019 17:30:50 GMT

How did I add photos to my variations? I did it for one item previously and now I can't remember how I did it. For example I have an item BEANIES and it has variations add for all the colors it's available in and I added a photo for each variation showing the color so when they are on the website shopping they select from the drop down menu that shows all the variations. For the life of me I can't remember how to add that photo when creating new variations on other items. Thanks in advance!

Hey @SimoniM!

We don't offer the ability to add pictures to variations, so I'm wondering where you had seen it able to be done previously. 🤔 Were you working in your Square Dashboard or in the Online Store when you added pictures?

@BlingDiva777 Hey !! and Welcome to the Community 🤗

If you're trying to upload images to your Item Library, I'm afraid you cannot do this using a scanner.

You'll need to upload directly from the photos saved on your device/computer.

I thought I uploaded an image to customizing my receipt but I can't find it. What did I do wrong?
