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

bnamodel:

I have a problem with my additional images which are not shown up after IH2 is enabled. Since I had edited the file "includes/modules/additional_images", I haven't uploaded that file included in IH2 Folder. I found whenever I set "IH Resize Images" to "no", the additional images appear again but then no zooming effects for those thumbnail images on products listing pages.In short the additional images zooming affects in IH2 isn't working because you did not upload the files needed for them to work..

You need to upload ALL the IH2 files.. If there are any files in the IH2 install that will overwrite other files in your store, they shoud be examined with a tool like WinMerge so that the changes required for IH2 to work are incorporated. There's no other way around this.. You need to add the IH2 code for additional images..

Geez Ladywig, give it a rest. Her post was informative because it was an easier to understand breakdown of the readme.html...and, it included a listing of the faulty version of Image Handler that had screwed up my site.

And personally, I think it is absolutely ridiculous and immature to resort to cursing in Italian for no other reason that just because you can.

E si, lo capisco.

it included a listing of the faulty version of Image Handler that had screwed up my site.I tried to explain what happened in that version of IH2 in the readme as tactfully as I could. (wanted to be informative, yet neutral:smile:) However, given the climate of this thread today, I felt that a much more direct opinion of that version was needed since it sounded like the root of your issue was that particular version of IH2.

I've tried to avoid saying anything about that version here because the author of that thread apparently thought I was being LESS THAN HELPFUL when I expressed the opinion that his contribution to IH2 should have been submitted as a VERY seperate mod that required IH2 to work. Truly not my intent, but I can't stop folks from interpreting what I write here in a manner in which it was not meant to be interpreted..:smile:

Anyway.. glad you found it helpful.. If you are not running the latest version, I encourage you to back up your site and give it a whirl..:smile:

Quit calling me Ladywig, retard.
If you find the readme difficult to understand, please be informed (again), that it was written by the same person, in very simple language.
Obviously you need the same concepts to be repeated to you several times, but that is understandable, given your nano-brain.

ckosloff:

Quit calling me Ladywig retard. No, I don't think I will quit calling you Ladywig, sweet cheeks. How about that sloppy kiss?? You look mighty cute in your avatar.

:wink:

By the way, I love the way you choose the most unimportant part of a post to quote.

You did great in the readme, it was informative without being offensive to anyone.
And you did great today by stating clearly what your opinion of that version is.
However, it was sufficiently clear in the readme, there was really no need to emphasize anything, plus I had already published the restoration.zip, to further ease the path.
Bottom line, there is nothing that you or me have done wrong.
And don't worry, nobody who publishes offensive statements will get any help nor response from me from now on.

DivaVocals hasn't done anything wrong, just as you say. She has been very helpful and professional. You should take lessons from her. And concerning you not responding...say it ain't so!

Rather than scale images, is there anyway to do a true resize?

ie take any image, scale it and then pad it with whitespace to fill the entire dimensions as entered in admin.

If not, has anyone done this mod?

IH2 does a re-sample, re-size and re-compress. It's slick.
Caches the resulting image too.

You can control padding and padding color from the IH admin (images)

Hi guys,
This is my first post to the forums, have spent many a time reading the pages over the last few months. My question is, when I make a new product and input prices, manufacturers, etc. Where do I go to upload the "1" large image that will be used to scale down for small , medium ,large display of my image. I'm a bit lost to say the leaast. I can go into image handler and all that. But what are the steps I need to do so that I can add the item, then the one image?
Any help, greatly appreciated.
Bryan

You do not add the item, IH2 reads database and sees it, just select it and display it.
Then use the Default option, and click Browse, go to wherever your image is and save it.
All this is done in IH2 Manager.
Read the Scalability section in the IH2 rev 7 readme, you can choose location to save and organize your website's structure.

How do I set the padding? I can see where the color can be set.

You can force a specific width or height by putting a "!" after the value of pixels. If the image can not be fit to the height and/or width dimensions you specify without changing the images aspect ratio, it will be padded out to that number.

There is a color setting in there as well but I don't have a admin page handy to look at. If you are still unsure after some time, post again and I will look. (or some one else may jump in and say.)

That's amazing!! Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks so much!

Just installed this addon, did everything ok and I get these errors when I select a category with products:

Theres nothing in the BMZ cache folder but a ".keep" file.

I also have a question. I already had my images uploaded before installing IH, so does that mean I have to reupload everything manually from IH? :( or will IH work it out from I already have uploaded?

IH2 will (should) find your images in most cases.

So if I have some images already uploaded in my medium and large folders, should I delete them and let IH generate 'em?

Thanks for the fast reply.....btw, whoever can help please go back one page in this thread for my other post where I get some errors...gotta fix that too. :(

For your previous posted error, check the permissions on the bmz_cache folder.

See if it works if you set the permission to 777 or if error is same.

Yeah, I actually figured out I'd try that and no, problem isn't solved. :( I found a post on this thread with someone who deleted off a space in the end of the file mentioned in the error, but that trick didn't work too. I also believe this error causes a halt in what IH suppose to do, I mean, if I take off my images from the medium/large folders I get nothing, meaning, IH2 doesn't work properly or something.
