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

Hello,

I just realized that the hoover effect of IH2 does not work in Opera Browser Version 9.24. Does anybody know something about that?

I don't even know, if it worked anytime? Could anybody tell me, if there's something I messed up or if it is a browser problem?

Regards,
Miriam

edit: version-no.

In tracking down 'my' error issues and I have read several threads on the 'White Screen' of death. I have a blank Catalog front page, but Admin works in the background ? I made NO changes to any files prior to installing IH2, but when the supplied files were OLDER than what existed, I tucked the newer ones away and used your's directly, since they did not normally fall into the subset of ../custom folder.

Most contributors that are adding lines of code to existing files, include in their readme.txt file the lines to search for and what to replace or add next to it. Am I to assume :shocking:, that I need to dissect the the old file for changes and add it to the newer file ? I use Crimson Editor and can use Dreamweaver as well for editing.

Thanks for the help, I hope to not be a NewB too much longer.

Toby.

A white page always means that some php-error occures - you must look in source code, whether there is any output, but when you messed up some php-code, it will stop for any reason. So you have to check for error messages which will be thrown from php-parser. Often this is prevented from server side to protect the customers view of website. So you have to turn on php-error-messaging. Or install same version on an local webserver, where you can savely turn on error-messages and retrieve the errors.

Another suggestion: return to original files and carefully follow every step you made...

Thank you for responding Miriam_T..

After searching this thread for "White Pages" or "Blank Pages", then reading a multitude of related users having similar problems.. DrByte had included a link for the PHP_Debugger Tool for another user, one of his contribs, I'm sure. I ran it on the failing side, as instructed, it told me that I had made a similar declaration in another file, I looked at the other file, "ezthumbnails", I tucked it into an isolating folder, reran the failing Catalog, viola !! There seems to be some alignment problems in the right sideboxes now, but way better than a dead site. All hovers and enlargement features are working. Thanx to the both of you.. I highly recommend that all NewB's grab this file.. it looks like a life saver. :clap:

If it was working before what did you changed or do to break it?
Asking because you are missing a file that handles the hoover/popup.

includes/templates/future_zen/jscript/jscript_imagehover.js

hmm it is in template_default though that should be enaff should it not?

well now that I think I did install some google modules. I must check what files it replaces.

Everything is installed and no error codes are 'showing', BUT, what is happening is all of the files are getting thrown into the /images (root) no matter what size they are ? I keep a cleaner house than this and I would like to know where to go in and change the code to accomodate my tidy habits, i.e.: /images/thumbnails, /images/medium, /images/large.. and then, if I didn't want enough already, I would like IH2 to actually pull from and return to the folder the I have specified the images were to be used from in the 1st place, instead of creating MORE of the same to accomodate their untidiness.. Please ? :frusty:

Image Handler only needs the large version of the image. It creates the medium and small and stores them in the bmz cache. You can use sub directories in the images folder to organize them a category of your choosing. Just don't put them in the large, medium folders or you will override the function of image handler.

Problems with "file exists", etc.

The only way I have found to overcome this is:

1. Clear cache in IH2.

2. Go to the product page and install the small default image and update.

3. Go back to IH2 and open product - and your default image should be there. Edit the other images for that product.

Hi there,

I recently installed IH and its working fine, however my images for the mouseovereffect seem to popup a little random. I would really like them to stick to the pointer whn its held over the small image. Is there a way to fix this?

My shop if you like to check it out.
I am also using the greatest template I have found in ages Cherry Zen. Its so pretty, and matches my logo perfect :clap:

Thanks :D
Lisbet

I just installed IH2 and everything seems to work fine except that when you click on the Image to check a product and add to cart, it displays but with the FOLLOWING Error below the Image:

xt' => "\n " . $link); $col ++; if ($col > (IMAGES_AUTO_ADDED -1)) { $col = 0; $row ++; } } // end for loop } // endif ?>

What needs fixing?

:oops:

I have (re)installed zen so I am talking about a completely original version without any adaptions. I added three products, installed the image handler and everything works fine.

But...: I would like to increase the size of the images that appear when you hover over the smal picture in the product listing. I thought I could do so by increasing the size of the medium pictures

So I changed the value for both
"Product Info - Image Width" and
"Product Info - Image Heigth."

If I do so, eveything in Firefox still works fine with indeed larger images, but in Internet Explorer I get an error on the page and the hovering images are not shown anymore.

Can somebody please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Help...

I've installed Image Handler 2 on my Zen Cart 1.3.8 and am not able to get the Watermark feature to work. Also, on the home page and category pages, I do get a zooming effect (large image from small, not a medium image). On the product pages, I get a medium image and am able to click to view a large image in a new window. The watermarks are not working on any of my images, though I do have them installed, per the original README file.
When I go to Tools>Image Handler 2>Preview, I get this error message (several times):
Warning: imagepng() [function.imagepng]: Unable to open '/home/anaheimd/public_html/poodlesupply/bmz_cache/b/b0f493998f9ef653459006a1980f5f19.image.100x56.png' for writing: No such file or directory in /home/anaheimd/public_html/poodlesupply/includes/classes/bmz_image_handler.class.php on line 646

I've been through the manual many times and scoured the Image Handler2 thread.

Any suggestions would be wonderful...

I am confused and now really frustrated. I thought that I was installing Image Handler tested for use, for my version 1.3.xx. I had issues and since there were no real instructions included with the module, other than copy files into appropriate folders, and merge the ones that duplicated, I did my best to do so, but even with care, I seemed to have missed something ?

I then redownloaded to make sure that I had a good copy, then recopied all of the files a second time, trying to verify my work and then noticed some differences between the 1st and 2nd attempt. It wasn't until I was scrolling through the Contrib area, that I noticed TWO versions, identically named, IH2, but one was for the 1.2.xx series, the other for the 1.3.xx series ? So now I don't know if I had the failure based on installing the earlier version, or the later version ? I reversed the install order on #2 and I am still getting 'IH This and Thats' showing in the Admin/Config/Images area ?

If anything, can someone help me to finish stripping out the remaining IH so that I can go on, without reloading ZC ? If not, can some one tell the two authors of IH2, to rename their contribs to be a little more clearer or differently, other than just a version number that ZC references in their listings ?

My reference is: ( please note that they are on seperate pages so visual triggers are low )

What's really upsetting is alot of the files have duplicate file dates, so even that makes it even harder to figure out, which ones get weeded out ?

Not sure why.
Why don't you move the file to your future_zen template directory.

Inadvertantly, I crossed the two url links going to their respective files.. the are corrected above. Sorry.

Yes that is what I ened up doing.
This is not a solution though cause and not my way of working.
This kind of error should be fixed in stead of working arround, cause it can give lot of other problems in the future which could be difficult to solve.

Well I guess I have to try and figure out it later with better time.
The workarround has to do for now.

Thank you your replies.

I don't see a problem by doing this, in fact this is what I do with all my templates.

I do see your point.

But cause the problem lies in the main core overrides system it is important to have it fixed. Corrupted core features lead sto many other problems. I allready found a lot of problems cause of the corrupted override feature, like many modules were not working at all.

What I ended up doing was restored my old backup and got override feature working again. The backup did not include some of google modules, so I must add them carefully to make sure those where not the cause of the problem.

It can be that some core files just got corrupted for some reason and have nothing to do with module?

Well anyways the core files are now fixed using my backup.
Looks ok at least with my browser: http://fotonapakymppi.fi/index.php?main_page=index&language=en

Don't you have backup?
If you do use the backup and reinstall the module.

2.If you dont check what files is included in 1.2 version as well 1.3 version and move them out from ZC. Do not delete incase you still need them for some reason.

NOTE you might also need to remove 1.2 and 1.3 data from database. I presume 1.2 and 1.3 IH modules has apropriate uninstall sql scripts.

After this you reinstall the module.

After this if you are unlucky you lost som merged file and some other modules stop working.
Well then you need to check the other modules install instruction what code need to be added.

Note: if you have no backup remember to backup next time.:wink:
