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

lizar5-:

For some reason, my images are copying to other products in the same category, it doesnt matter how many times i go over them.. they are always mismatched and incorrect. Is this a normal problem for lots of people?
Give us a link to your website so we can see what you are talking about.

The big thing to watch for is your file naming convention.
image_1.jpg
and
image_1_abc.JPG

will display under the same item.

Make sure that you give different names styles to each items image

image_1.jpg
and
image_2.jpg
etc.

and i think i know what your talking about now, there's a correlation between like images with same product images. thanks

I have looked everywhere, but i didn't find how the link name of the large image is generated. I have $products_image_large, $products_name but i need the large image generated by ih2 with watermark on it.
Thank you.

I've looked and searched all through the docs and can't find answers to these two questions. I have IH2 installed and everything works fine. My issues are these:

I have small zoom on and it works fine(image pop up on small image rollover) in firefox but in internet explorer the rollover images do not come up if the rollover image box is going to be off the browser screen. I know someone in the thread brought his error up a long time ago but i couldn't find a response or fix to it and am just wondering if there is one and where it is.

My second issue is that i want the small image rollover zoom to work on the product page where the small images are the additional image thumb nails but i do not want to the zoom to come up on the home page where Featured Products use the small images or the Category pages which display the small images. Any one know how to accomplish this?

Thanks.
Paul

After long time spending on searching on codes, i finaly found how to generate the large image links with ih2:

$imagemedium = new ih_image($products_image_medium,$ihConf['medium']['width'], $ihConf['medium']['height']);
$linkm = $imagemedium->get_resized_image($ihConf['medium']['width'], $ihConf['medium']['height'], 'medium');

$imagelarge = new ih_image($products_image_large,$ihConf['large']['width'], $ihConf['large']['height']);
$linkl = $imagelarge->get_resized_image($ihConf['large']['width'], $ihConf['large']['height'], 'large');

First part, see pages 126 and 136 of this thread.

Second part, no.

Hi all, this is a VERY long thread, I must ask to be forgiven if I missed this - but does anyone else have a problem in the admin side, where you have trouble overwriting the main image?

Basically the problem is this:

A product has 1 main pic, and 2 additional views, if I delete the main pic, the other views disappear. If I re-upload the same main pic, the other views re-appear.

A product has 1 main pic and 2 additional views, if I edit the main pic by uploading a new pic, the additional images disappear from admin and the site.

So it seems I'm stuck, if I want to change the main pic, the additoinal views have to be deleted too?

Seems to me that this is counter-productive, as sometimes the client wants to change hte main pic without touching the additional views. Any workarounds / others have had this same problem?

Any workarounds / others have had this same problem?Are you replacing the main pic with a different image with the same name, or are you changing the name? If you are changing the name, you would need to also change the names of the additional images so that they remain associated with the base name to which you have changed the main product image.

Hi Kuroi - thanks for the note - I've done some more reading into this, mostly from this thread, and that each set of additional images for a product is tied to the main pic's filename. I've figured out that if you upload a pic of the same filename, it will not delete the additional pics.

So, a sub-question for you - since you brought it up, is how am I supposed to access the additional pics IF I do change the main pic's filename? In other words, I'm uploading a new main pic with a different filename, then how am I supposed to edit the additional pics to match up with the new filename if they are gone from IH2? Unless you are talking about going to the raw JPG files and editing it there through FTP, which my clients can't do.

Hi everybody
Have ever had this problem with image hanler 2?

The additional images aren't deleted - they're just no longer found as the base filename no longer matches how they start. The only way to see them again if to edit the actual filenames. Or upload new files that follow your new naming convention.

Hello everyone,

I know that my problem has been hashed over and over but after much searching I am unable to find a "fix" for my problem. I have IH2 installed. My host has PHP compiled with GD2 libraries. I read a post saying that IH2 should work right out of the box but that is not the case with me. Here is some info...

site: http://www.tranquillas.com

with only one image file, IH admin shows a small, medium, and large image

have tried the naming convention with xxx_MED.xxx in the main image directory and the "medium" directories... still doesn't work.

have zoom and hotzones turned on in admin/config/images

there are many more things I tried to toggle on and off but with no success at this point.

I would appreciate any help that anyone could give. So far, I am on my 3rd day trying to find an answer. Think I have read enough to qualify for posting a help message... lol

thanks,

You haven't actually told us what the problem is, but I'm guessing that it's that you can't get the Zoom facility to work. And I suspect that you solution will be to move your /includes/templates/template_default/jscript/jscript_imagehover.js file to your /includes/templates/classic/jscript folder.

However, the site has many, many other problems. when I submitted it for validation it came back with 327 errors, and Firefox crashed most of the times I tried to view your site.

Thank you kuroi,
I did a "validate" on the local HTML and I got the 327 errors also. Thanks for pointing that out to me. I use Firefox too (version 2) and have not had any problems with "crashing"... and yes I am having problems with the Zoom functionality for IH2. Do you know how I can see where them 327 errors are in my site?

thanks a lot,

I tried moving the jscript_imagehover.js to the /templates/classic/jscript folder. Still did not work. I almost forgot. I'm using version 1.3.7 of Zen Cart.

Can you (or anyone) think of a reason why the zoom in IH is not working?
I appreciate any help that anyone can give.

I haven't managed to get the mod working at all yet, long story..however, would it be something to do with popups maybe...?

Hey Kuroi,

I found a solution for the "zoom" image. I had to put the two files (style_imagehover.js and jscript_imagehover) into the /include/templates/classic/css folder and the zoom is working great now.

I now have another question though... Is it possible to have the larger (zoom image) come up by hovering anywhere on the picture instead of just the "+" (plus sign) on the image?

thanks again everyone... I appreciate the help

Hi Mediathing,

I just now got mine to work by copying style_imagehover.css & jscript_imagehover.css to the /include/templates/YOUR_DIR/css directory. This might work for you. Everything started working fine when I did this

good luck

Actually many many zen sites have validate errors !!!! lol, check a few, and also your site doesnt show any larger images, you need to increase the sises in Zen's admin for med/large so that the hover will pop up a bigger image

Hi Andy!
Thanks for the info on the validate errors. I don't think I have touched enough files to get that many errors lol... unless there is a cascade effect once an error comes up. You know when you validate the html... you are given the line number and the column number of the error... what I don't see is the file name????... Do you know how I can get the filename so I can look at some of these errors?

And thanks for the image info... I will change that when I get up in the morning. It's 3:00am here and I'm about dead...

have a great night and I will see you tomorrow.
