Product Image Management
Image URL Resolution
Every product image path is resolved using the following priority chain:1
Direct URL Source Flag
If
image_url_source = 1 on the image set → the stored path is returned immediately as a direct external URL with no further processing.2
CDN Domain Prefix
If a
cdn_url is configured in settings → the path is prefixed with the CDN domain.3
Amazon S3 Disk
If
image_s3 = 1 → the image is resolved via the S3 disk, using either global credentials or custom per-product credentials.4
Local Public Disk
Otherwise → the image is resolved via the standard local
public disk.Direct URL Image Source
Each image set carries animage_url_source flag. When this flag is enabled:
- Stored paths are treated as direct external URLs (e.g. CDN, third-party image hosts)
- The “Enter Image URLs” toggle in the add-set form switches the input between file upload mode and URL entry mode
- Existing image sets using URL mode display an amber “Direct URL” badge in the admin image list
Direct URL mode saves disk space and bandwidth — no file is downloaded or stored locally. Make sure the external URL is publicly accessible and stable.
