Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

Dooblebee, Nope. You don't need to modify any files. It should work just fine. Sometimes, a little trick with IH is to uninstall it (don't delete your files, just click the uninstall IH link), clear the bmz_cache, then reinstall.
The images you are uploading with your products.........are you uploading in the "create new product" area, or are you leaving that blank and uploading your images directly to IH?

Well, my testbed is a "live server" testbed. I had a localhost testbed first - I wasn't using IH2 for it. I moved the site to a live server testbed today for some finishing touches and final run-throughs before we really make it live. I used the Easy Populate to move my stuff over from my localhost to the live testing area. Do you think that could be the issue? I could get rid of all the images...I could give that a shot and see if it helps (although when we actually "go live" I'll need to use Easy Populate to move everything over - I hope I don't have this problem for that!)

and yes, I uninstalled and reinstalled as you said - still doesn't work.

Don't know about the Easy Populate messing things up. It shouldn't. You do have a link to IH in Admin>Tools>Image Handler2 don't you? You might try adding a new product, leaving out any images, then go there (IH) to upload your image. See if that helps.
Do you have a URL for this test site?

Does anyone have problems with displaying animated gif while image handler 2 is on? Turning off image handler makes the animated gif images works. Is there a solution for this? Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Yeah. i tried that - it's still not taking. Although there was a glimmer of hope: the little "hotspots" showed up on my images at one point :) Nothing worked, but they were there ;)

I actually do have a link (for once!): http://www.foolishvisions.com/zencart/ ...and I'm noticing I've removed all the images, so the point is moot LOL I'm going to plop a couple of them back in there...

...there. I plopped the first three back in. What's funny is (probably because I deleted them before) the product info page image is missing, and the "larger image" shows up as a very small one (no image - just the window).

So yeah, any ideas would be great :)

How do i do Multiple Images?

I have set additional images to max 6 per row.

Doodlebee, those images that's on there are 198 X 168. IH ONLY Zooms small images, which have to be defined in Admin>Configuration>Images......small image width and small image height. Set that to 200 X 200 and then see if it zooms. If not, resize or find another image that's that size, and try it. I'm positive that one of those will work.

Then there's the Product info image. It's in the wrong folder. An image cannot be called from the medium and large folder at the same time IH, along with everything else will get confused by an address like your large image is being called from (http://foolishvisions.com/zencart/images/medium/large/anna-blue_LRG.jpg)
Click that and you will get a 404 page.
Now, if you take out the medium (since the image has _LRG) to make it look like:
(http://foolishvisions.com/zencart/images/large/anna-blue_LRG.jpg) it works just fine.
Do me (and you) a favor...........take that exact same image, forget the LRG extension, renaming it to anna-blue.jpg, upload it with IH ONLY into the default image field (1st of the 3 Default image file). Then it will resize it according to your settings.

The ONLY reason you EVER need anything other than that 1st image field is if you have 3 DIFFERENT images. Not for 3 different sizes of the same image. That's what IH is for......to resize as needed. So, if you have one image for each product, there's no need to rename them with the _MED and _LRG extensions. Just make sure that your image is as big as you want your largest pop-up to be, and upload it to that 1st field. IH does all the rest.

Hope this helps.

Okay - now we're getting somewhere :)

I deleted all the images - including folders of images I had on the server that actually contained all the images i was planning to use (why did I do that? i dunno.) I then uninstalled IH2 (again) and cleared the cache (again). The small image size was already set to 200x168 - so I didn't bother with it. But I reinstalled IH2 - then I used the IH2 area under "Tools", rather than editing from the Categories/Products area. When I put in the small image, it uploaded and did fine - BUT the large and medium images were showing up as "?". So I also uploaded the optional Large and Medium sizes, and now it's working fine.

However, in the IH2 area, under "Tools", I know have an error showing. Same two lines repeating itself over and over again (actually, it's a warning):

Warning: strstr() [function.strstr]: Empty delimiter. in /home/public_html/shop/includes/classes/bmz_image_handler.class.php on line 126

Warning: strstr() [function.strstr]: Empty delimiter. in /home/public_html/shop/includes/classes/bmz_image_handler.class.php on line 128

And my little pink "i" icon that supposed to show up in the Categories/Products area still isn't there.

I can work with this - as long as it works! - but I was wondering if you (or someone) knew what this could mean?

Apologies in advance if this has been covered before, I have searched but can't find the answer.

I have installed IH2 and it seems to be working fine except the only place I can see the hover effect is in the what's new sidebox. Those images have the + in the lower right corner. There is no hover effect anywhere else.

When I click on an image in the what's new sidebox it goes to the product page and there is an image with the + in the corner (and click to enlarge) but no hover effect on that image on that page. My products only need a single image uploaded.

I probably have a setting wrong somewhere but can't work out which. Any ideas?

Just testing things at the moment so please ignore content etc, test images have been duplicated on my test products.

There is file in incorrect folder
i.e. your code/folder

includes/templates/classic/jscript/jscript_imagehover.js"

SHOULD BE

includes/templates/template_default/jscript/jscript_imagehover.js

The jscript_imagehover.js file is present in both the folders you mention,

includes/templates/classic/jscript
includes/templates/template_default/jscript

Should there only be one occurrence of it?

Incidentally, not worked this out yet as new to Zen, what template is being used on my site?
classic or template_default, I have assumed it is classic as files uploaded there for mods work fine.

You should ONLY have that particular file
i.e.

jscript_imagehover.js 

in

includes/templates/template_default/jscript/

Current template being used on your site
..
Via browser, view source, reveals

includes/templates/classic/

Thanks for your help :smile:

So I should delete jscript_imagehover.js

from;

includes/templates/classic/jscript

So I should delete jscript_imagehover.js
HAVE YOU TRIED putting that particular file in folder suggested?

The file is in the folder suggested,
includes/templates/template_default/jscript/

It was in both of them, I have just deleted it from the classic folder and the hover is showing on some images apart from the whats new sidebox, but still nothing on the main page or the product page.

The hover is showing for the sub category image. (trout flies>boobys)

I've searched this thread, I couldn't find my issue, maybe I'm using the wrong key words...

I installed the latest version of IH but am not getting a link in my admin > Tools> menu.

I uploaded all the files to the proper directories.

I re-uploaded the files making sure I didn't miss anything.

I do have Easy populate and the lightbox module installed.

So as of right now I can not got IH to install because the link will not show up in the admin > tools menu.

Is there some specific files that need permission changes or some conflict?

Thanks

I am using image handler along with cross sell. Right now my additional images appear below my cross sell box, and I would like it to appear above the box. I'm not sure which files of which plug-in I need to alter, so I'm asking on both support threads. Thanks.

How often should the bmz_cache be cleared? If ever?
