Question Can I configure XcAuction so that thumbnail images display for all items when using a list view to browse by categories?

Answer Yes, it is possible to display thumbnails for all items in category list view if you are using XcAuction v3.x or later or XcClassified v3.x or later. You just need to edit the system configuration file to set the following 3 settings as described:
gbThumbnails = True
This is the setting that allows for thumbnails to be created on the system. (requires an Imaging Component on the server- see also http://www.xcent.com/FAQ/XcIBViewItem.asp?id=328)
gbGalleryThumbsInAll = True
This turns on the option for thumbnails to be displayed in list view.
gbUseGallery = False
This will turn off the option for users to select a premium Gallery option when posting an auction; if this is set to True, then the only thumbnails that will be displayed in list views would be for auctions where the auctioneer has selected the Gallery option when posting the auction.
