Fual Slimbox (Lightbox) - Ver 1.0 Support

[tacoma]

Well the only small issue I've come up with is the product name showing in the 'slimbox' window. On the products with longer names it cuts off the name. Also on products that have the " symbol for say 9" lumber, it stops at 9 and doesn't show the rest.

@ tacoma <- cheerz 4 the props! I don't quite understand the last bit of your last post: Also on products that have the " symbol for say 9" lumber, it stops at 9 and doesn't show the rest.

If you give me a link to the page or a few screenshots I will work out how to best solve this problem. (btw you must have some pretty small images and some big names! When I was writing this I thought that one line would be enough).

@ Fireflyz <- The problem here is that the z-index of the menu is really high, so that it lays over everything else. This was the right thing for the person who wrote the menu to do, however it causes a small problem for things like lightboxes as they need to sit over everything on the page.

There are two solutions to your problem:
1) in the file css/stylesheet_slimbox_ex.css, at the top before everything else you can add the code:

#lbOverlay, #lbCenter, #lbBottomContainer {
	z-index:1000000;
	}

This will bump the z-index of the lightbox up so that it sits on top of everything else. This is the "correct" css way to solve this problem. If that doesn't work you can try method,
2) this might be a bit more tricky, the Mod has an option to hide any class called "zenLightboxHideMe" when it loads, to deal with problems like this. You can edit your menu template and add this class to the wrapper that contains your template.

Once we get both these issues resolved I will post an updated version.

love this add on but i was having problems with additional images until I found this ...

thanks to glamour1artworks for finding it first ...

If someone still has problems with ZenCart 1.3.7.1, ImageHandler 2.0 and Zen Lightbox 1.4 here is what i did to fix it:

locate the file "additional_images.php" it should be in your includes\modules\"template_name_dir".

Go to line 23 and remove the ". '$'".
The line should look now like this:
$products_image_base = str_replace($products_image_extension , '', $products_image);

Thats it. Hope it helps others.

Cheers,
Climax

@monkeyjr47906 <- Cheers, I have made a change to the file.

I have also made the necessary changes to the lightbox stylesheet, to prevent the dropdown menu issue.

There is a new release in the downloads section.

banswidthjunkie, yes I do have somewhat long item titles. I don't think though that the pictures are too small.

I sent you a PM, and if you could at your leisure take a look and see if there could be a fix?

Thanks

Thank you banswidthjunkie! The first solution worked like a charm!
Cheers mate!

@Fireflyz <- No Probs

@tacoma <- The attached zip file sorts out both of your problems.

The zip file below is the latest release, it might take a day or two to reach the zencart downloads site, so you can get it from here directly.

There is one small issue that I know about regarding additional images in IE6, basically you can click the link to them, but you can't see the link! I will sort this out in the next few days.

Thanks banswidthjunkie.

Do I uninstall the old version first?

Thanks banswidthjunkie.

No, all you need to do is rename the two template folders and copy over the files. There is no need to reinstall the sql patch. Only the contents of a few files has changed.

Thanks! It works perfectly!
