    Default Adding Additional Images to Product

    I have read the tutorial at
    https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=58
    It seems so simple and I uploaded my images, designated as _MED and _LRG to my images folder. The small image shows on the initial page where one selects a product to look at. Then that same image shows on the item's page. When I click to see larger image, all I get is a distorted view of my page. The side bar is in the center.

    I have other problems, too, so,when you look at my site, it will look sort of messy and I can't get shipping to configure, but I'm working on one problem at a time. Once I'm able to show the items fully, I'll probably ask more questions.

    Here is my problem site. I have only one test product on it for now. I want to get the system working before adding more.

    First I suggest that you begin not using caps at all for image names...

    Second, I do not know where you think you uploaded your MED & LRG images for I get a 404 when these are entered(space is mine)

    Thanks for responding.
    First: I used the caps for MED and LGE based on two tutorials. They said they must be named that way.

    Second:
    I have tried uploading the images to different directories. First I put them into images/item or images/medium or images/large they don't show on my site at all. I So I had to just let them go loose into the images folder, simply in images/FILE_NAME_MED.jpg. That is the only way they'll show at all, but they won't go into my popups. The popup windows just show a distorted view of my page with the sidebar in the center.

    Now I have duplicates of the images for that one product in different places. One person suggested there should be a folder called attributes within the images folder so I tried that. I also tried putting the medium and large folders into the attributes folder (images/attributes/medium), but that doesn't work either.

    I have read and read over the threads on this and I uploaded a couple different "fixes" submitted by users. I installed them one at a time, but got no different results. There must be some code set somewhere that is blocking my images and I can't seem to find it.

    Image names only like SinginRain.jpg and was not referencing the Suffixes which are correctly MED and LRG...

    These should be
    /images/SinginRain.jpg
    /images/medium/SinginRain_MED.jpg
    /images/large/SinginRain_LRG.jpg

    Exactly as the base image name and in those locations will be automagically used

    I just noticed you didn't have the full name of the image when you attempted to access it. Each med. and lrg. image is numbered. So, if you go to http://www.store.stitchinthyme.com/i...ain_03_LRG.jpg
    you will see it.
    But it still does not work on my site. Is there some file with pointers to my images?

    Your title is "additional images" but what you are posting about is MED & LRG images...

    If you first do as I posted previously you will get the 3 image system working....Then if you want "Additional" images(these show below the main stuff and again automagically when a number is added as the tutorial outlines

    You should probably be following this tutorial and not the one for additional images

    You've got something wrong with your javascript call. Look in your status bar when you hover over the 'enlarge image' link. It is a link to a full page, not an image.

    I would check how you are calling your image through the javascript.

    Maybe you made some recent mods? Or maybe their is a config setting in the admin console for your template?

    I'm new to Zen as well, so I'm not well-versed in where to look specifically, but generically I can see that it's the javascript call.

    A closer look has revealed that your javascript layout is just like mine... it just looked funny to me at first.

    I notice that you have your store at:

    www.store.stitchinthyme.com

    Is the double sub-domain an issue? (www.store.)


    Do you have a test domain somewhere that you can set it up to test?


    Or could a true guru or developer weigh in on if this is an issue?

    One more thing...

    These 2 files aren't found....

    http://www.store.stitchinthyme.com/i...ain_02_LRG.jpg

    http://www.store.stitchinthyme.com/i...ain_01_LRG.jpg

    but this one is....
    http://www.store.stitchinthyme.com/i...ain_03_LRG.jpg


    I'm thinking that *maybe* if these two other images are included as well that something will change?


    Just another idea.....

    I've been playing with the image names and locations. I removed the caps, but what about the numbers? When I removed the _02 from my _MED image and uploaded it to the images/medium, it now shows up on the product page as a medium image..

    Unfortunately, I am still not having success with the large images. I tried removing the number, putting it in images/IMAGE_NAME.jpg and also to images/large/IMAGE_NAME.jpg. It doesn't work either way. If I do get it working, I will still need to use the numbers because I will be having several large images for each product. The tutorials I read suggested using the numbering system and said the program will recognize all files with the image name followed by anything one chooses to use as a designator. The numbers allow them to load in order of my preference.
