Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

Hello All,

I have Zen Lightbox installed and working smoothly with Image Handler 2 so thank you to all for those mods. My questions is as follows;

The site in question is a cattle related site.

I have multiple images on the main product detail page but the images are of different animals (dam, sire, etc). Is it possible to edit/remove the image descriptions on the Lightbox as it is currently using the product name (animal name) as the description but it is not the same animal in all images?

I know it might sound strange but have a look at the link below to see what I mean.

The site is for bulls and not the human kind in case you are wondering about the domain name ..... :laugh:

i ran into this problem trying to get rid of the additional images click text to enlarge i'm not sure if it is a lightbox issue or not

Little vag on your question, but I'll give it a try.... the code in the link was for Fuel Lightbox, not Zen Lightbox, however, both use Slimbox just a little different way of activating it.

Look for

Code:

---

'<br />' . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . '</a>'

---

and remove all but the

Code:

---

'</a>'

---

Same with this one

Code:

---

'<br /><span class="imgLinkAdditional">' . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . '</span></a>'

---

That will remove the words and leave the image link to the larger one.

Or you could change TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE to something else, add a define to english.php and change it there!

This mod is not working with my template for some reason. I have spent hours trying to figure out why! If I switch to classic template it works perfectly. I have used WinMerge to compare the mod files and the template files and just don't see where the issue is. However, if I view the id and class details using FF developer tools, I can see that the lightbox css is not showing up for some reason. The lightbox css file is in the correct place. It seems like the file includes/classes/zen_lightbox/slimbox.php is not being called for some reason. I am using a purchased template and am just not sure where to go to make the template use the slimbox.php file for images...

I really appreciate any help!

TIA!

Does Zen Lightbox work 1.3.9d newest download? Any problems? Thanks!

make sure you have uploaded all the files correctly...especially the ones that are labeled as YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER

those need to go into your template that you are using for your store.

@pink leopard:

yes it will work just remember to merge any files that are shared by voth the store and any other addon you have installed and of course lightbox

Yes, I've checked and double-checked and all of the files are in their correct spots. It's something that has been customized in the template that is causing the issue. When I look at the css on the product page, I can see the lightbox css in the css file, but when I view the id and class details for the image itself, the lightbox classes and ids aren't there.

Ah finally found it! It was a bit of javascript that was hard-coded into the tpl_main_page.php file. The lightbox now works, but there are no close, previous, or next buttons.

It was a template that my client purchased somewhere. I got the buttons to show up using a fix posted a few pages back in this thread :) It's all working great now!
