Shop Catalog Image Size / Shop Thumbnail Image Size

Thank you!

when you dont want the catalog image (the featured image) being the main image shown on the product page (single shop image) i found by using the advanced custom field plugin, setting up an image ID field then adding the code below to the single-product / product-image.php woocommerce template file it worked fine (where shop_image is the name of the custom field)

<div class="images">

	<?php $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src(get_field('shop_image'), 'full'); ?>
<img src="<?php echo $image[0]; ?>" alt="<?php echo get_the_title(get_field('shop_image')) ?>" />

	<?php do_action( 'woocommerce_product_thumbnails' ); ?>

</div>

I have a feeling the answer is very simple, just changing the code so that woocommerce uses the main product image as the parent for all smaller image settings.

In Detail: I have about 1200 products to migrate from Virtuemart/Joomla to a new WooCommerce site

The products already have catalog images at 90×90 and product images mostly 150×150 up to 280×280

The old system moves through several sub categories to get to a product
Example Beer Making> Beers>Coopers>Coopers Australian Pale Ale (the chosen product)

At the old site, the larger 280 image is used when the sub category gets to the brand level
In the above example that would be Coopers, where all the various Coopers beers are displayed.

At the new site the small 90×90 Category Image is used for the sub catalog brand image Coopers. That is the problem, the image is too small.

There are well over 100 categories

How can I change woocommerce so that it takes the featured Image as the base image instead of the too small 90×90 catalog image.

I understand all about the woocommerce image settings and using the regenerate images plugin, but the regenerate images plugin is using the small 90×90 image for catalog images and product thumbnails, so I can’t show a larger image without pixilation, because the 90×90 image is used as the base, even though a larger image exists for each product.
