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

This forum has helped me out numerous times, but his thread is just ridiculously big. I've asked for help 2 times, but I never got a response because there's 4 or 5 other things being discussed, which is really frustrating.

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

I've been breaking my head over this. I installed IH2 a couple of days ago. I have the watermark turned on for both small, medium and large images but only the the small ones display a watermark. I have created watermark.png and placed it in /images/large.

The watermark does show when I copy a picture gadget.jpg from /images to /images/large and rename it gadget_LRG.jpg.

Any clues? My site is https://www.mylittletoy.com.

Thanks
In order for watermarking to work for every image dimension the specific corresponding watermark images have to be present. That means, you have to upload files to the following specific locations:

*images/watermark.png
*images/medium/watermark_MED.png (or your specified MEDIUM_IMAGE_SUFFIX)
*images/large/watermark_LRG.png (or your specified LARGE_IMAGE_SUFFIX)

I included some demo watermark images for small, medium and large sized images featuring a slightly modified Zen-Cart logo for a quick start. Nothing more to do, switch on, switch off, just as you like. Image Handler takes care of generating images accordingly. You can specify where you want the watermark to appear on the image canvas by selecting NorthWest, North, NorthEast, West, Center, East, SoutWest, South and SouthEast for the Wartermark Gravity setting.
This came from the authors web site. Hope it will help.

I have a problem with a image link at the bottom of my site that reads - Click Image to Close. This I would like to get rid of, but when I try to my page want load. It did not appear until I installed image handler. Does anybody have any ideas I would be grateful.
You can see my website in my signature. Thank you

Look like you added this along with the google-analytics code to your footer file.

<body id="popupAdditionalImage" class="centeredContent" onLoad="resize();">
<div>
<a href="javascript:window.close()"><img src="" alt="- Click Image to Close" title=" - Click Image to Close " width="70" height="60" /></a></div>

Thank you for your help. I had already done did everything you described here, yet only the small images display watermarks. When I copy an image to images/large and add the suffix _LRG to it, then that image does get a watermark when displayed small and big :frusty:. Unfortunately, I will be having to many products to copy every image.

I have all watermark.png and watermark_LRG.png in place and have 'show watermark on large images' set to yes.
If anyone could look into this, I would be very thankful.

What size is the large images that you upload?
What is the large image size setting here: Admin-->config-->Images?

If you have large images set at 500x500 and you upload a 500x500 image IH will not process that image and so no watermark.

So your uploaded images is bigger then 750 x 550?

Check a couple of images and the large images are only 325 x 325.
Your uploaded images needs to bigger then 750 x 550 or you need to change

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

Hi everyone,

I noticed that many of you had the same problem I did with not being able to get the large watermarks to show up.

This was my problem:

  1. All watermarks showed up except the large pop up images, with the EXCEPTION of the additional images popups. They worked fine.

  2. I changed the size of the original image I uploaded into IH Handler to be much larger than my Large Image settings under Config-Images, to make sure IH was handling them.

  3. The large popups were not being handled by IH, because, in addition to the large watermark not showing up, it didn't resize the image to my large image settings.

  4. I made sure all my settings were correct and cleared the cache, etc. None of these worked.

My Solution:

I uploaded my regular default image in IH Manager, then loaded the same image to the optional large folder in IH Manager as well. This fixed the problem. It was able to recognize and adjust the size as well as add the watermark. Apparently, in my case, adding only a default image for all three sizes didn't work correctly.

I hope this helps someone! Good luck . . .

Kim

Is there an easy way to change the text for the watermark without having to use an editor.

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

How do I disallow clicking on the additional images from opening a larger image in another window?
As in I dont want people to click on the image and open an enlarged image

Is this a Javascript thing? cos i cant find the function anywhere :(

I tried it but still no watermarks on the large images. I think IH isn't handling the size of my images. When I click on "show large picture" the original size of the picture is being displayed. :cry:

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

I am having issues with IH2 working on a new site I have in development. What is maddening is that I have it working fine on another site (on the same server). I have checked and I think I have all the files in the right location with the right permissions. I see all the IH2 menus and functions in my admin BUT IH2 doesn't seem to be active on the site.

I cleared out the bmz_cache, I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. No luck. IH2 does not appear to be writing to the bmz_cache directory.

My site in dev is http://redspet.com/index.php

You can see if you click on a main product image it gives you a broken link--- like IH doesn't know to put the files in bmz_cache nor look there for them.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks!

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

Suddenly the images doesn't resize anymore. When I clear the cache, the directory bmz_cache will be cleared normally.

And when I go to the shopfront the folders 1234567abc..etc will be created, but there will no images created in those directory.

So the images of productlisting and productdetails are scaled from normal large size.

So that makes a lot of traffic. What does go wrong? Earlier it did work.

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

Similar thing for me - have IH working fine on another site, using same files but no joy with the additional images.

Have uploaded via IH and all products/ images show correctly.
Go to product info page and no additional images, no code no nothing.

I've so far spent all day today trying to get this working. Highly frustrating.

Thanks!

For the record I am using ZC 1.3.8a, Cherry Zen template, GD Version bundled (2.0.34 compatible)

I was able to fix the main product image broken link by replacing the IH includes/modules/main_product_image.php with my original one for now until I get this figured out.

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

Okay, I deleted an extra jscript directory in my template_default directory and IH seems to have fired up! It is making files in the bmz_cache directory.

Unfortunately the site doesn't appear to be using the cached files! If you poke around on the site you can see that it is pulling full size images out of the image directory!!

Thoughts? Anyone have an idea here???

thanks!!
