I appreciate you both for taking the time to look at the site and giving me input, I know it isn't always fun troubleshooting someone else's problems.

Much appreciation!

no problem, glad it worked.
Note, its not an old version of the plugin that was loading, its part of your theme; it uses jQuery as well so thats why it was loading already.

from your theme:

HTML Code:

---

<script type="text/javascript" src="includes/templates/theme438/jscript/jscript_jquery-ui.min.js"></script>

---

ZLB was simply loading it again since it doesnt know to check for the existence of a previously loaded jQuery (hmm, maybe I should look into that for ZLB 1.6.3)

Daniel

That makes sense.

I remember trying to install "slim lightbox" addon atleast a year or so ago... I believe that was the addon name. Figured that might of been the extra existence of the script.


Thanks for the input!

Did you see this forum post about the same issue?
This user found an image that had a ( in the file name. Could this be the case for you too?

I need to add the lightbox effect to the category Icon above the product listing. This is a wholesale site, and all user ordering will be done from the product listings. I don't want them to have to go back to the category listing to see the large image.Attachment 8968. I am not sure how to go about this.

Thanks- SJ

I'm not sure thats going to be possible without some custom hacks.
The ZLB works but replacing the default popup images with lightbox functionality, but the category images are not clickable by default.

you might be better off just editing Admin > Images > Category Icon Image Width (& Height) - Product Info Pages to make your images larger to start with.

Thanks for you reply, daniel. I kind of had that feeling. I tend to want things that don't exactly fit the mold. I'll keep hacking away at it (pun intended) and see where it takes me.

Love this mod, really dresses up the old website! But...

Can't find my solution after running several searches on the support thread and the rest of the forum. Not covered in the read me either.

Clean new install of zen cart 1.3.9h, (think the h is right, doing this from memory), image handler for_vx_2-0Rev8d, and zen light box 1.6.1. Installed in the order given. Works great on most images EXCEPT -

1. Main image on individual product page. Maybe that's a feature, not a flaw? Keep from downloading the largest version of the file unless you really mean to do so?

2. But the frustrating one for me is the images on my ez pages do not have the lightbox effect.

Read me states will do so out of the box for every image that has a link. Made sure of that. Any idea what I'm missing?

I am totally ignorant regarding scripting and coding. Manage to stumble my way through by careful application of the knowledge (and mistakes) of others on this forum.

Link is phoenixwoodworks D o t net . The "About Phoenix" sidebox on the upper right contains the ez pages. And the Glossary link is the one I'm most concerned with.

Any help you offer will be most gratefully appreciated.

Thanks,

Bruce

Hi Bruce, I'm not sure what you mean by #1, can you please explain?

for #2 it will work on ez-pages however since they are generated manually, you have to also manually add a reference to the lightbox. - rel="lightbox"
try changing your image link(s) on your glossary page

FROM

HTML Code:

---

<a href="graphics/barrel.jpg"><img src="graphics/barrel.jpg"

---

TO

HTML Code:

---

<a href="graphics/barrel.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img src="graphics/barrel.jpg"

---

and see if that helps you.
