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

True a small issue (hey it works on IE & FF), but guess it depends on your site layout and user base, all of my pages are long so this issue is on every page and I have many Safari customers.

I hope there is fix soon. Please post if you have a solution!

Changed permissions on the bmz_cache folder(s) to rw but I'm still not seeing the images in my admin panel.
Any suggestions?

Is where the image should be found, and I can confirm that it's in that folder but I get a "Host Not Found" when trying to look at it in my browser.

Just installed IH2 and having some problems.

1. Watermarks aren't showing up on product info pages:
   http://beta.buydentalequipment.com/cart/all-categories-catalog-c-3_136/free-2009-q3-equipment-buyers-guide-p-252

I have JQLightbox installed and thought perhaps that was causing a problem but trying to turn it off didn't make any difference. I also tried some modified files from a forum post which did nothing. In addition I've tried to clear my images cache with no solution. It appears as though the product_info page is grabbing the wrong link and not using the one out of bmz_cache

2. Watermarks are missing some categories and on others are only partly working:

No watermarks : http://beta.buydentalequipment.com/cart/air-abrasion-systems-air-abrasion-units-c-3_57_71_72

Some missing : http://beta.buydentalequipment.com/cart/lab-equipment-amalgamators-c-3_92_94

3. Whatever the little plus is supposed to do it's throwing an error:

showtrail is not defined
showtrail("bmz_cache/d/d15f58c49... 100, 80, 100, 80, this, 0, 0, 100, 80);
hidetrail is not defined
hidetrail();

This is from firefox. IE does nothing.

In addition I'm curious. Currently we have a shop with about 1000 products in it. The previous administrator didn't know about multiple size images so they were never uploaded in different sizes. Does image handler actually go back and create medium and small images for all my current images?? If so then I'd really appreciate help with the above as this plugin is much needed.

Alright, I've got this licked. The problem was with additional_images.php and main_product_image.php which are located in includes/modules

JQLightbox provides these two files however they put them in an override directory. So these files were always loading the JQLightbox version. It turns out that forum post I mentioned fixed the problem but I didn't copy/paste correctly so until I looked around the problem persisted. By copying the files from modules into my override directory the problem went away. Although I suppose the easier solution might be to just delete those two files from the overrides directory so that they load up the normal version.

The rest of my problems still persist with one change. The images that aren't watermarked in the normal category listing are also not watermarked on the product_info page. Perhaps these images are too small to apply the watermark?

I kinda figured that but shouldn't IH2 pass that info along in the admin/image_handler.php file?

Anyone know what needs to be edited in order for the admin previews to work?

I'm running Image Handler v2 on ZC 1.3.8a at http://straightrazordesigns.com.

I've recently run into an issue where on some products, the image will not display. Not only that put the html output will cease, and the entire page (body, footer) will not be sent to the client. I've tracked it back to the image, and mabye to IH2.

I've done this by disabling images. When I do that, the entire html will output. Renable the images and it halts in the middle.

If I go into the IH2 admin area, the images won't display there either, and html output stops short. Any ideas from anyone?

Thanks
David

DavidSome specific examples of where this happens will help..

I am fully security patched on 1.38a and working with IH2 v7 and Lightbox 1.5. In IE the lightbox is not working, but in firefox everything works fine. If I turn IH off, then it works.

Can someone help me out?

This error sounds specific to the Lightbox module.. You might want to start with that support thread..

Hi Guys,
I have just discovered that In the last couple of months some hacker/s have being using my websites to plant fishing software in the "bmz_cache" and "images" folders.
I think this hacker/s is someone that knows about the existance of these ZC folders with the kind of permissions required by IH.
For simpleness I had kept the folders permissions to 777 because IH would not be able to write its initial cache otherwise.
Now that I have, hopefully had, this problem I have changed the folders permissions to 755, do you think this will do the trick?

Do you think this is the best solution to keep carrying on using IH and not get hacked again?

Kind Regards

I have exact same configuration and it works fine in IE.
Character 154 on line 225 is an open parenthesis, maybe that is missing.
Upload the file again, this may be the consequence of a corrupt transfer.
In some respects, FF is more forgiving (smarter?) than IE.

This is my specific example.
The Test Patterns in IH2 have the full url path pointing to their bmz_cache location but as someone else mentioned, the product image preview urls stop short.
The product images do show properly on the main pages and are pointing at the correct url

I do not have a light box installed yet as I was waiting to resolve this issue first.

A corrupt image will do this.
Server timeout when processing a large image for IH will create a corrupt image.
Using ' " in the image description (Jon's Razor) can cause the page to break.
Using spacing in the file name also know to cause problem.

3. Whatever the little plus is supposed to do it's throwing an error:

showtrail is not defined
showtrail("bmz_cache/d/d15f58c49... 100, 80, 100, 80, this, 0, 0, 100, 80);
hidetrail is not defined
hidetrail();

Ok.. I have this one somewhat licked. For some reason Zen Cart was looking in my themes directory instead of template_default for the jscript_imagehover.js file. I moved it over to my themes jscript folder and suddenly the little plus came to life.

Still not sure why Zen Cart incorrectly linked to the file via my themes directory.

Still having problems with number 2. Which was that some of the watermarks aren't showing up. To clarify the issue some more it would seem image handler just isn't getting invoked on some files. Not only do watermarks not show up but also missing is the little plus. In addition viewing the image will show the image from Zen Cart's images directory and not from bmz_cache.

Any help would be appreciated.

I've got to be honest.. I've NEVER been able to get the watermarking in IH2 to work correctly, and I decided to let that battle go.. My clients now use a watermarking tool that batch processes whole folders of files.. Then they upload the watermarked images via IH2.. I know that's not the solution to what's wrong with IH2, but it is a viable alternate solutionif it helps..

Found another issue. Not sure if this is a biggie. In the admin section under tools->IH2 if you choose preview the images all seem to be broken.

I did some looking around and it would seem the path wasn't getting set correctly for these images.. all had a double /cart/cart in them.

I opened up image_handler.php and hacked the bottom of the page where the images where linked. I changed:

  		<td><img style="border: 1px solid #000000; background:url(images/checkpattern.gif)" src="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . $images['pngsource']?>" /></td>
  		<td><img style="border: 1px solid #000000; background:url(images/checkpattern.gif)" src="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . $images['pngsmall']?>" /></td>
  		<td><img style="border: 1px solid #000000; background:url(images/checkpattern.gif)" src="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . $images['pngmedium']?>" /></td>

to:

	        <td><img style="border: 1px solid #000000; background:url(images/checkpattern.gif)" src="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER .'/'. $images['pngsource']?>" /></td>
  		<td><img style="border: 1px solid #000000; background:url(images/checkpattern.gif)" src="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER .'/'. $images['pngsmall']?>" /></td>
  		<td><img style="border: 1px solid #000000; background:url(images/checkpattern.gif)" src="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER . '/' . $images['pngmedium']?>" /></td>

In the sections marked <!-- source png row --> <!-- source jpg row --> and <!-- source gif row -->

Not sure if everyone was having this issue or just me. It would appear I have everything defined correctly.
