am lost on that one unless your theme lightbox files are not in their designated theme folder
check to make sure that you put the:
includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/make a folder for your theme here and place that file in it
same for the modules/your theme folder
and the templates/your theme folder
put those files from the zip into the folders and then check admin again either in a new page or refreshing the page you have open
let us know
Hello, For some reason lightbox does not display the image in Chrome 3.0.195.33, and Opera 10.10. The light box appears, just with no image. Works fine in IE 8.0.7600.
Sorry wouldn't allow me to edit, does not work on Firefox/3.5.5 as well.Quote:

Maybe strange question but shouldnt there be files for the admin folder to show things in admin.?
The files in the zip are not for the admin folder?
Thanx

@dre:
the files are for the software to be able to use the lightbox but the install sql is for it to be seen/set in admin section.
I am at a loss as to why unless it has to do with your template you are using...which is it and you are using zencart 1.38 yes?
I guess I could revert to my backup and re-upload, and reinstall. When i installed the SQL there was no error. I changed the directory name properly for all the files as well. I'll let you know if anything changes on the reinstall.Quote:

I think but the tables within the testing database is more than likly either zc, zen or nothing at all but just table names.
I suggest you go to your database manager (MyPHPadmin from your c-panel), and take a screenshot of the actual tables in the database.
that way we can see which one of us is confused...thanks
sneakerf_testing is my database nameQuote:

Hopefully this will be an easy one to answer.
I have just had installed Light Box and it appears to work fine - apart from the fact that when I click an image it brings up the box but the image is the same size as the image I clicked to open the box.
Do I need to resize all my existing images, and add _LRG.jpg and place them all in the LARGE folder for light box to open a larger image of my products?
Or do I need to do something else so that the customer if they click on my existing image (say 100 x 100 pixels) they get to see a light box image that is say 600 x 600 pixels in size.
I am going around in circles trying to rectify this.

@philblack:
hi there and happy holiday!
about the thumbnail images...depending on what size you have them set in admin is the size you initially see...however what I do is upload the image full size via the description page---at the bottom and then the software resizes it to fit your constraints and when clicked on the customer is given the larger size.
hope that made sense
example mine are set at width=175 I think...lol I do not enter a height so the software fits to size...then I go enter all the info I need for the product and under the place to enter model you click the browse button to locate the image on your computer...select where you want it uploaded...click preview when doen then update to finalize...go to your store and click the thumbnail and it should open to the original size you uploaded.
see my store (link in signature for Fantasies Realm) rightclick the thumbnail and choose view image to see the actual size of the image...they are all uploaded full size, named as I want them to be.
the_LRG is more if you actually get the counter to go thru more than one image on your product page...mine never behaved, so i did it this way
DarkAngel,
Perfect!!!!
It was such an easy fix.
I appreciate your help.
Happy holidays to you also..

:oops: pretty please help...
What is the prefix you are adding to the beginning of your tables?
Is this the first time installing or have you run the installer more than once?
are you using the current version of zencart and the lightbox?
does it show up in your admin section under configuration?

Hi DarkAngel
As I read through the thread and tried few times. I still have problems in install the light box.
1. zencart 1.3.8a
2. lightbox 1.5
I installled light box few times, all the way works fine.
Then later i install another new one,
1) Insalled, works, no configuration menu....
2) Then i tried to remove all the database file and install the database again---Got the data base does not exit issue!
Error ERROR: Cannot execute because table zen_configuration_group does not exist. CHECK PREFIXES!
Error ERROR: Cannot execute because table zen_configuration_group does not exist. CHECK PREFIXES!
Error ERROR: Cannot execute because table zen_configuration_group does not exist. CHECK PREFIXES!
Warning Note: 2 statements ignored. See "upgrade_exceptions" table for additional details.
3) I checked the path to the data base should be correct.
4) I tried removed all from database like "zen_configuration_group" "zen_configuration" then install again. Still does not work.
and i got the below results when try installing again:

It is too strange! Really mad, dun know how!!!!
Can you help on this?
Regarding the scripts: 1) just try to insert some table for zenlightbox right? 2) So i can remove all the things with words like "lightbox" right? Cause i modified the uninstall scripts try to clean up my data base by change the database table in the scripts. Like "zen_configuration_group" "configuration_group"....
Make sure your prefix is added correctly, add your prefis to the tables where the red zen is shown.
Check to see if it shows in the admin/configuration and if it does then run the uninstaller first before trying to install again.
Aslo if it does not work from admin section (mine did not) then go directly to the database and copy/paste the sql installer there:
INSERT INTO `zen_configuration_group` VALUES (NULL, 'Zen Lightbox', 'Configure Zen Lightbox settings', '0', '1');
UPDATE `zen_configuration_group` SET `sort_order` = LAST_INSERT_ID() WHERE `configuration_group_id` = LAST_INSERT_ID();
SELECT @cgi := `configuration_group_id` FROM `zen_configuration_group` WHERE `configuration_group_title` = 'Zen Lightbox';
INSERT INTO `zen_configuration` (`configuration_id`, `configuration_title`, `configuration_key`, `configuration_value`, `configuration_description`, `configuration_group_id`, `sort_order`, `last_modified`, `date_added`, `use_function`, `set_function`) VALUES

In order for the lightbox to work right you need to copy/paste the installer information (sql) into either the admin section of the store or the actual database.
removing thins will essentially"confuse" the installer and it will not install correctly.
So please unconfuse me.:cry:
Cause, i set up two zencart account....
the First one works fine.
The second one got problems!
For the second one:
I install got the administration issue, no lightbox configuration menu.
and also got the database does not exist issue...
Then tried to uninstall and install a few time by following the steps in the thread.... in the end.... still can not make it.
DarkAngel
Really thanks a lot for your help!
It works now. 2 things noticed:
1) Install and uninstall few times will get some strange problem
2) need to install through my phpadmin
3) need to take note the file format. Otherwise will get syntax error.
Thanks a lot for your help. Can move to next step now!!:clap:
happy! Haha, learn a lot of things for last week! HTML + CSS + PHP + SQL --> zen cart!
glad you got it straightened out and got me not confused too...yay:clap:
Happy Holidays
Hi
Posted to tvzen_jellyfish but no replies yet. I have this theme on one web site but when I install Zen Lightbox and when I do I stop geting product pages.
I guess they are over writing something they shouldn't. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

I have already tried what you suggested as well: (below)
Anything else that might be wrong? My database is stable and running smooth. Everything that is suppose to be there is there...
Zen Cart = 1.3.8a
Lightbox= 1.5
Thanks.

this doesn't touch your pages it just adds a few files.
did you install it or someone else
is it showing in admin/configuration
any error messages when installed
what themplate is used in store
link to store would be helpful for the ones with even more experience
PS: guys, I did not create this little mod, I love it and even though I do not have the additional images like all others do I just give advice for the same things I have gone thru with the installation and making it behave. I wish I had created it....but tips to my paypal are still accepted...lol <---just kidding

Hi Darkangel
Thanks for the reply - Im still a little confused as to what I need to change. I understand that I need to change the red areas which you highlighted however what should I be changing them to.
Im sorry if this is a kind of dumb question but am kind of lost
thanks
I too have problems installing the install SQL patch on via both Admin and Database.
Error message from admin: 1146 Table 'anshii80_IC_20091104_062332.configuration_group' doesn't exist
in:

If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.
I have also tried using the patch given below directly into the DB, this was what I got:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1

Right from the admin. I havent wanted to try the database yet as many people still have the same problem. How would even put it in the DB myself?
:(
Thanks again.

@abs007:
there is no such thing as a dumb question except the one you keep to yourself. If we all knew exactly what to do then we would not be here helping each other...lol
1. you need to look at your database (see the one that is pictured in the above post) to see what your prefix (the part in red of my post) to your tables is.
2. that is what you replace my red words with.
Then after you fix your install file you upload it either through the database or through store admin section.
@Dimascus:
yay you got it done!!!
@abs007:
the only problem is that not everyone has the same prefix to their database tables. Which seems to be the main part of the problems found here. plus like me, I could not get it to install from the store admin section, I had to install it via the database
Hi DarkAngel
I have re installed (no errors). The settings are available from the zen admin. When turned on I get blank screens when viewing products, when turned off it all works fine.
http://v p s 3 2 0.win.vps.isx.net.nz/Oasis/
Test web server not always available.
TIA
Rob
even removing the spaces I get nothing but a login page to the host...lol
I would suggest you go to the server--check all the folders to ensure you uploaded everything right. do this by opening the zip on your destop and checking visually especially the ones that you need to rename with your templates name.
is it on the default template or a different one.
then if all is well then go to the addons page here --click the main nav bar link...search for debugging tool and grab it...
open the zip, upload it to the includes/extra_configures folder set the cache folder permissions to either 775 or 777 then try one of the pages that is blank.
once you do that go to the cache folder and see what it plops in there...plop the error message in here for all to see and get an idea? then remove the debugging tool file.
did you change the installation sql in any way, except for the usual prefix change? same for the actual files you uploaded, did they get changed in any way?

I will get the tool you recommended and see what I can see. When I look at the source in the browser it is only partly there with light box turned on, so i guess something is crashing PHP.

A side question but is it possible to show the products description in the 'light box' as well as the name ?
Thanks
Rob
well it did work this time...lol
um are you using IE or Firefox...cause I got the lightbox to come up
I would not enter the info in the lightbox...leaving it as it is is best I know that the lightbox has given me problems if the image is too big in width by not letting it scroll or even close.
Was there ever any consensus regarding the images being blank in browsers other the IE 8? I was looking forever for problems using Google Chrome, then finally tried IE8 and presto...it worked. Google Chrome just comes up with a blank white image, but IE 8 works correctly.
my guess is that since chrome is so "new" still it is like opera started out...dicey...lol
I have a customer also that just emailed me as to why she could not see the lightbox and that all she got is a white page.
found out she is using chrome so informed her of the problem.
it is something coded into chrome I would assume...has anyone tried using it at other sites that may use some sort of lightbox?
the creator has not been in for a long time so not sure if they are working on it or have quit working on their add on.
How did you do it?

When I click on the image, it does not come up in a light box, it just opens in a new page (same window).
All folders are named properly... not sure what it is. Please PM me and I will give you my development address.

I replaced all the red coding in your previous post to my database so it reads
INSERT INTO `abs007_zc4_configuration_group` VALUES (NULL, 'Zen Lightbox', 'Configure Zen Lightbox settings', '0', '1');
UPDATE `abs007_zc4_configuration_group` SET `sort_order` = LAST_INSERT_ID() WHERE `configuration_group_id` = LAST_INSERT_ID();
SELECT @cgi := `configuration_group_id` FROM `abs007_zc4_configuration_group` WHERE `configuration_group_title` = 'Zen Lightbox';
INSERT INTO `abs007_zc4_configuration` (`configuration_id`, `configuration_title`, `configuration_key`, `configuration_value`, `configuration_description`, `configuration_group_id`, `sort_order`, `last_modified`, `date_added`, `use_function`, `set_function`) VALUES
This is the error that I am getting
1146 Table 'abs007_zc4.abs007_zc4_configuration_group' doesn't exist
in:
[SELECT @cgi := configuration_group_id FROM abs007_zc4_configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Zen Lightbox';]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.
not too sure what im doing wrong. I got the database name from my configure.php file
thanks
That may be the trouble...Quote:

I think that it should read: zc4_configuration_group
what you entered is the database name but not the table prefix, this is why I ask everyone to take a screen shot of the database tables.
when you go to your mysql manager (myPhpadmin for some) you will see the name of the database in the list (if you have more than one database), clicking the name will show you all the tables in a list
look at the tables and see what is written immediately in front of them---that is the prefix
take a screen shot of yours---tables only then post it to verify the prefix...
then we can take it from there
there is a known issue with it not working in chrome but in firefox you should see the lightbox in action.Quote:

3. while verifying...actually upload the files into proper places again...sometimes the internet hiccups and they can get corrupted.
If it is in the admin/configuration section allowing you to set the controls then it may just be a corrupt file.
also--go to the site here>upper navigation panel>addons
find the dibugging tool and install that file into includes/extra_configures
make cache folder permissions set to 777
then try the naughty page, check the cache folder for the error file then post results here AFTER you remove the debug tool file.
Hi Thanks alot Dark Angel
Well I checked the prefix from my phpmyadmin area - I should have copied you - the prefix is zen_
Anyway I changed the code to match your initial one and I got a different error. The screenshots of both phpmyadmin and the error are below. It processed a few statements but not others.
http://directlcdtv.com/prefix.gif
http://directlcdtv.com/sql_error.gif
ok next question...does it show in the admin/configuration section allowing you to change the settings--or is it listed but empty page?
and you are using the default classic theme right?
this is strange
yesterday it showed it in the admin configuration area twice and now that ive taken a look it isnt there.
Yes the classic template - a brand new instalation just to test the modules before adding them to my main site. I have only changed the includes>templates to point to includes>templates>MYTEMPLATE
Your gonna tell me i havnt added the files correctly arnt you? Im just going through them again now
yup
checked all the files and they all look sound - the template is set to MYTEMPLATE and I have added all the files as they were meant to be added

is is the classic one or is it really a template called MYTEMPLATE
I have done all the below steps of re-installing the mod but still FireFox displays only a blank page. It works perfectly on IE8 though.
I have also installed the debugging tool but I guess no errors were found as there wasn't any error file in /cache/ There was errors earlier but it was from my other mod not uninstalled properly. After I clean that up, no more error was logged and still FireFox is displaying blank.

now for starters the one thing I can think of that may be messing about with FF is the length of the file name:
46b5e453034862df49191c85dd2fb2e1.image.57x120.jpg
try calling it just plain testpromo.jpg
why is it in the cache folder and not in the images folder?
http://lilpixies.com/bmz_cache/4/46b...age.57x120.jpg
try shortening the name, moving it to the stores images folder and see if that makes it behave any different. it might be all those periods in the image name that are the problem too
when you go to admin/configuration/lightbox, do the settings show--all of them?
did you have any errors while installing it?
The original image file is in /images/ and it is named correctly. bmz_cache is Image Handler's cache folder and apparently, there is no way to rename the files - IH2 creates the file name automatically. I have tried renaming - but it will generate another with such long names again. I have asked the creator what is the purpose of bmz_cache - it is where IH2 stores its cached images so that they load faster and in different sizes. I have also tried to change permission on the folder after clearing the cache so that it is not writable but still, FireFox displays only a blank white page.Quote:

I was told that Zen Lightbox works perfectly well with IH2 so am not sure where this problem this.
many people use it with IH but many also have trouble with it...my store uses the G2 for images and I have nto hade trouble with the images...just me not naming them right for the additional images to show but that is fine cause i use a work around...lol
aside from totally deleting it, uninstalling it again then reupping the files to re install the sql I have no suggestions more.
{offtopic}
sorry DarkAngel, i had a computercrahs, could not answer you befor. thanks for your repl. but i switched to the 'easy' slimbox version.
this all is way... over my head.
i will however follow this thread.
thank you for your input.

everything is fine, but for the last image of additional images, when click the image it bring you to home page...how can we simply close it?
Hi, help!! lightbox not working at all, installed ok... image shows not in original pop-up but own page. i can't workout what's wrong, ive read tonnes of forum help pages and have to resort to asking for help. Sorry if this has already been solved, if so please direct me to the page, but ive spent hours over 2 days.
I have successfully installed lightbox and it shows in admin/configuration/zen lightbox, before you ask yes i have set 'enable zen lightbox?' to TRUE. -- this was a challenge it itself because the install.sql just errored but i found a version in the forums that installed nicely via admin/tools/install SQL patches
So to set up a picture in catalog/categories/products i have setup so far just 1 test product page. There i set 07400_DET_0.gif and uploaded to /main directory and FTP uploaded, to /images two more pictures 07400_DET_1.gif and 07400_DET_2.gif
I've played around with different file names, different directories for the images but still to no avail.
Thanks
Joe :dontgetit
Zen Cart 1.3.8a
zen lightbox v1.5
www.gerbermulti-tools.com.au (new site - setting up product descriptions and pictures first ie lightbox)
Thanks anyway DarkAngel for all your help so far. It is still not working. I might get someone to do it for me - saw one zenner who has it working and it works on Chrome as well!Quote:

and Image Handler 2 http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=117 - this manages the image in admin/tools
this works nicely and easily just wish id found this 3 days ago!!!!!

I'll second that, I have used Lightbox on a couple of sites and it worked fine, the one I am currently doing I was experiencing many of the problems mentioned in this thread, and believe me I have read almost all of it trying to find a solution until right near the very end I saw joeharradines post and installed it, no problems, no hassle...Quote:

I just wish I'd started reading the ******* thread backwards from the end LOL :censored::censored::censored:

Absolute cracker!
I also had a problem executing the sql patch in admin - even after adding the prefix. Came across Dark Angel's post at

followed the advice in that post - and BINGO.

:hug: Big thanks to DarkAngel for all your help and support!!
glad it behaved, I also had to install via myphpadmin instead of the store admin.
How do I move the product caption next to the close button at the bottom of the large image to to top?
Thank you in advance.
I'm hoping someone can help me. I am using lightbox on a new site and it was working perfectly until I installed Links Partners. Now Lightbox is not working, I click on the image and it brings up a white box and that is it.
I am using all the recent/latest versions of the zencart and mods.
Please help :smile:
Thank you in advance.
when you uploaded the fiels for the links partners did it overwrite any in your lightbox stuff?Quote:

Should also add that I have uninstalled links partner and that has made no difference so possibly not related? No idea.
No sql files have been changed or altered since I first installed lightbox when it was working perfectly.
Actually I just opened it up in IE and it worked perfectly. So perhaps there is something going on with Chrome?
aha, reading thru all these you would have seen Chrome be not playing nice with lightbox...so yes it is chrome and not the other addon.
now there is a tool in the addon section that is really helpful, especially when any browser is giving you a blank page...debug rror logging tool
get it and follow the directions of where to place it and it will let you know what is being naughty...not sure it will help with chrome issue but...
Yes once I realised it was browser related, I saw it is a common issue! Will look at the add on - thanks!!Quote:

in the templates folder you need to plop those files into you templates folder
then run the SQL if there is one to do after making certain you add the prefix to your database tables to it.
sorry if this confuses you.
Have installed this mod and it all seems to be working ok except...the 'close' button to close the image is not showing at all so is confusing for some customers who have rang me to ask how to close the image ! does anyone know why this button isnt appearing and how to make it show
Thanks
Daisy
Hi Daisy,
did you upload the images to your templates folder?
Dark Angel, thanks for the speedy reply.Let me see if I understand you correctly. Inside the zip are five folders. one for example is called languages. So through FTP, I have gone to my site/includes/languages. And then inside this language folder on the server is where Im putting the new language folder from the zip? Or am I replacing the languages folder on the server with the new one from the zip file?
Also, Im using the template default. So it looks like this: /public_html/mysite/includes/templates/template_default/
So just like the previous question, the new template_default from the zip drive replaces the old one on the server or does it go inside the old template default on the server?
if you are placing the one from the lightbox in there then yes you may be replacing the entire folder
that is why i said to open both server files in ftp and then open the zipp folders on your desktop and drop only the files into the server...but in the corresponding folder.
I never did use the default so I think that they should go into the classic template folder...but like I said only the files into the proper folders already there.
Ok so I believe I have done that. Now I get this error when I try to install the sql file in Admin > Tools > Install SQL Patches
1146 Table 'sac2126_zc1.configuration_group' doesn't exist
in:
[SELECT @cgi := configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Zen Lightbox';]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.
Im sorry this is the first time doing this and I have no clue what Im doing. Im just trying to follow the directions.
Has anyone solved the Chrome problem with Light box? - I'm running 1.3.8a with lightbox 1.5, and getting a white screen instead of the image. I know there's been a few posts on this but I couldn't seem to find any details on what might be causing it.
@megetweh
Is this: sac2126_zc1 the prefix to your tables?
when you look at the tables in myphpadmin...is that what is seen before the table name? like some is zen_ or zc1_
and don't worry, new at this or not we all sometimes have trouble and errors while following the steps....lol
Now if this is your prefix to the tables then installing the SQL through myphpadmin's sql section
comartdw@ cableone.net
without the space feel free to email me if you need further hands on help
I uploaded the images to the 'buttons' folder of my template as that is where it said they go should I put them straight into my images folder?
Is Zen Lightbox v1.6 still planned to be released? I am unable to get the Cherry Zen template to work properly with Zen Lightbox without causing a duplicate gallery image side effect. v1.6 referenced it would have support for Cherry Zen template.Quote:
