Re: Image Handler 2 Support
Tim> Thanks for the response. I've had a further check and the quantity thing appears to have been a red herring. The problem is that the images that have a file size of more than 700k are being uploaded to Zen Cart but not to the bmw_cache directory. Is there a limit on file size set anywhere that I can increase?
It's just a problem because we were trying to upload photos direct from a digital camera where the files are like 1.2MB for a JPG without needing to edit all of them to make them smaller.
Is this possible?
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
Tim,
Sent files by email. Algozone is an OSC site that edits graphics to work in ZC. I aksed many pointed questions about the template working with 1.3+. Purchased based on answers. Turns out Algo was misleading.
Thanks again for a very good contrib.
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
@hutting: How large a file you can upload depends on yours server configuration. It's more the dimensions than the size of the image that imposes restrictions. I suppose you're using GD (you are if you don't have ImageMagick installed). The only way to make IH2 resize the larger files is to increase the amount of ram, the php-interpreter is allowed to address. If you don't own your server or at least have rented a root server, you may be out of luck here since you won't have the permissions to change the php configuration.
@jobiwankinobi: I don't know what you mean. It is a good thing you don't have to learn about _MED and _LRG image suffixes, isn't it? Those things are only important if you want to FTP your images to the server. And even with IH2 you can still do that and it will behave just like you expect from Zen-Cart.
So please explain, why is it more beneficial to Store-Owners, who don't know much about FTPing files to the server, to have files created with conventions you only need to care about IF you are FTPing files?
The manager page takes care of prefixing for additional images. It takes care of suffixing for medium and large images, too, if you want different images there. You can even FTP files with the right prefix/suffix combination and IH2 will pick them up. Essentially IH2 moves image resizing from your browser to the server. It doesn't mess with your files. It's just like a pimped-up browser cache, only it is located on the server.
I explained before, how IH2 works, you might want to have a look at that thread. It's inner workings are quite complicated, that's why it is so easy to use. So far I have only found it to confuse people who know about how stock Zen-Cart imaging is supposed to work :wink2:
Cheers,
Tim

Re: Image Handler 2 Support

deleted post....
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
I replaced the includes/modules/pages/popup_image folder and now popups are working correctly...
I dont think I changed anything in that folder for any mods I am using so its very strange.....
go figure...

Tim,
Thanks for your patience with computer caveman (me). I was in left field about image handler 2, it is truly a valued contribution.
