Hey, Meltdown, That's what we're all here for buddy..........to make sure everyones brain-farts only last a little while. :yes:
Here's a question: I have IH2 put up on a new installation of ZenCart. This is a testbed, so I'm fine with messing with things. I have a few products uploaded for said testing purposes, but I can't get IH2 to work. I've followed the instructions and uploaded the files where they need to go, permissions are set how they need to be set, and the installation went off without a hitch.
However...
When I go to "Admin > Catalog > Categories/Products" and go into my products area, there's supposed to be a pink graphic with an "i" located between "copy" and "attributes" - but there's not.
Am I supposed to edit my tpl_main_page.php file, and combine the one provided with the IH2 files? I thought this was supposed to work "out of the box" - but nothing's working when I hover over my images. I've cleared my cache a couple of times, and made sure the images sizes are set as they should, but it's just not working out for me. Anyone have a spot I can look to see what I'm doing wrong?
Dooblebee, Nope. You don't need to modify any files. It should work just fine. Sometimes, a little trick with IH is to uninstall it (don't delete your files, just click the uninstall IH link), clear the bmz_cache, then reinstall.
The images you are uploading with your products.........are you uploading in the "create new product" area, or are you leaving that blank and uploading your images directly to IH?
Well, my testbed is a "live server" testbed. I had a localhost testbed first - I wasn't using IH2 for it. I moved the site to a live server testbed today for some finishing touches and final run-throughs before we *really* make it live. I used the Easy Populate to move my stuff over from my localhost to the live testing area. Do you think that could be the issue? I could get rid of all the images...I could give that a shot and see if it helps (although when we actually "go live" I'll need to use Easy Populate to move everything over - I hope I don't have this problem for that!)
and yes, I uninstalled and reinstalled as you said - still doesn't work.
Don't know about the Easy Populate messing things up. It shouldn't. You do have a link to IH in Admin>Tools>Image Handler2 don't you? You might try adding a new product, leaving out any images, then go there (IH) to upload your image. See if that helps.
Do you have a URL for this test site?
Does anyone have problems with displaying animated gif while image handler 2 is on? Turning off image handler makes the animated gif images works. Is there a solution for this? Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Yeah. i tried that - it's still not taking. Although there was a glimmer of hope: the little "hotspots" showed up on my images at one point :) Nothing worked, but they were there ;)
I actually *do* have a link (for once!): http://www.foolishvisions.com/zencart/ ...and I'm noticing I've removed all the images, so the point is moot LOL I'm going to plop a couple of them back in there...
...there. I plopped the first three back in. What's funny is (probably because I deleted them before) the product info page image is missing, and the "larger image" shows up as a very small one (no image - just the window).
So yeah, any ideas would be great :)
How do i do Multiple Images?
I have set additional images to max 6 per row.
Doodlebee, those images that's on there are 198 X 168. IH ONLY Zooms small images, which have to be defined in Admin>Configuration>Images......small image width and small image height. Set that to 200 X 200 and then see if it zooms. If not, resize or find another image that's that size, and try it. I'm positive that one of those will work.
Then there's the Product info image. It's in the wrong folder. An image cannot be called from the medium and large folder at the same time IH, along with everything else will get confused by an address like your large image is being called from (http://foolishvisions.com/zencart/im...a-blue_LRG.jpg)
Click that and you will get a 404 page.
Now, if you take out the medium (since the image has _LRG) to make it look like:
(http://foolishvisions.com/zencart/im...a-blue_LRG.jpg) it works just fine.
Do me (and you) a favor...........take that exact same image, forget the LRG extension, renaming it to anna-blue.jpg, upload it with IH ONLY into the default image field (1st of the 3 Default image file). Then it will resize it according to your settings.
The ONLY reason you EVER need anything other than that 1st image field is if you have 3 DIFFERENT images. Not for 3 different sizes of the same image. That's what IH is for......to resize as needed. So, if you have one image for each product, there's no need to rename them with the _MED and _LRG extensions. Just make sure that your image is as big as you want your largest pop-up to be, and upload it to that 1st field. IH does all the rest.
Hope this helps.
