Yes, Farrah, it does work.
Also, you don't need to hard code both settings, one is enough, e.g. for all those settings I only use width 80 and height blank.
Let IH2 do the resizing.

Hi all.. I'm going crazy. I installed IH2 this morning, and am having a problem... I cant get any additional images to load. When I view my product pages - the additional images are not there. I can see them in the admin panel no problem. Even if I remove IH2, the images still do not appear. I have verified that they are in the correct directory, and are named appropriately. I've made sure that the number of additional images to show is set correctly in the admin panel, as well as verifying that the product type is set to display the images correctly as well.
Any ideas where to look? Running the most recent version of ZC.
Thanks guys!
So i'm installing a new site and load Image Handler 2.
Why aren't the files to allow medium images to zoom included with the download.
This means i have to search the thread to locate the link to download the additional file/files to allow medium images to zoom.
( Just like i had to do last time )
I did ask months back why they were not included in the downloads area and it seems they have still not been updated.
Not good.
hi all,
image handler 2 currently shows medium size image in hover. how can i have the large image being shown in the hover.
thanks,
hc
The reason why you guys are not getting answers is that answers are already posted all over the place.
Of course all needed files are in the download, it is up to you to check that you upload in correct locations and avoid javascript errors with the instructions I have already published.
Additional images have to be re-uploaded with IH.
The solution to hover is posted just a few posts backwards.
sir,
thanks a lot for ur valuable reply. actually i have posted again because that didnt work. Either you are unable to understand what I want or am I doing something wrong. I want that the image that hovers is the large image of the IH and not the medium one.
Thanks again,
hc
And that is one of the biggest problems too...they ARE all OVER the place scattered from H&LL to back instead of in one massive FAQ.Quote:

People give up trying to dig out the answers thru a thread over 400 pages and almost 1 million posts long. Liz
sir,
if i change the product info image width then the hover size increases but then the size of the image in the product page also increases. That I donot want. Any solutions...
Large image is what you get when you hover the mouse over the medium image.
Therefore you cannot get any larger and thats it.
Someone needs to make sure the Image Handler patch which allows the medium images to zoom to large is in the Image Handler downloads section.
It isn't at present as i had to go to a disc backup i had made to install it to get the medium images to zoom. ( for another site )
Hi all,
Any of you having problems displaying the pop-up images!
This is related to zencart not reading the jscript_imagehover.js file in IH2 contribution, located at /templates/template_default/jscript.
The easy fix: copy the file to /templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/jscript.
If you read post 3852 in this forum, it will explain a little more and it suggests editing the excisting jscript files present in your jscript folder. This would also work, but as you install more mod's in your zencart, it would be easily overlooked if the contribution also has a jscript included.
Follow my easy fix, and all be well.
Regards and happy Zenning,
Goshawk
Well this is the best it will be on an open source project manned by the community and volunteers. Unless someone within the community volunteers to create, post and maintain an FAQ, this is how it gets done around here.:blink:
While there is plenty of support here, it is manned by people who do not get paid for it. So as people's priorities and lives change, so does support for various modules and such.
It may not be as instantaneous as getting a ready answer, but the thread search feature works great, and so does the general forum search function.. You just have to be willing to roll up your sleeves a little to get answers..
Having dealt with the vb search feature...it can be frustrating in the best of times. And if you HAVE a word that is less than 3 letters long to search for, it won't.Quote:

hello all,
please check out my website http://www.india-gifts-mall.com. Here the products in the right table are hovering to medium size images and the product listing page are not hovering at all. Anybody please help. I want that both of them should hover to large size images.
thanks in advance,
hc
Your question was answered along with a link to the fix back in post #3984
If you want to have large images to popup/hover instead of the medium image then feel free to rewrite the code for that.
The how to has been posted in this thread. Might have to go back a year to find it.
sir,
thanks a lot for your reply,
actually I am new at this so a bit weak at coding. Can you please give me a hint which file/files to modify to get that effect. Ill try my hand at it.
Thanks,
HC
Which is why I use Google's Advanced search where you can search within a secific domain. (just did this moments ago to look up "Rent A Coder")
We'll have to agree to disagree then.. **shrugs** IMO the search works just fine for me..
Bottomline is that in the world of open source solutions where on their forums you either barely get a response or you get snarky and vague reponses this forum is a godsend. The example which exemplifies the snarky and non-responsive type of environment is the Virtuemart forum. (talk about getting NO answers!!!:censored:) In comparison, I rarely have issues getting answers I need on this forum (even for SUPER long support threads like this one). The FEW questions I did not get answers to, I simply found a viable alternate solution.
I have learned that I must be creative and persistent to find the answers I am looking for. It helps when you are working within a community of folks willing to volunteer their time and expertise to help a fellow Zenner out..
Hello
I've installed Image Handler on sites before and on the server I'm running on now but this time the Image Handler doesn't appear to be working!
I've re-uploaded all the files and removed and installed it but no luck
Has anybody got any bright ideas about what's going on?
Thanks
Andy
Sorry - the site with the problem is www.daisywest.co.uk - there are other sites on the same server where the Image Handler is functioning correctly.
Andy
So what was the issue?? It might help others if you post it here.. Like for example I discovered that additional images didn't work on all products and the issue was my client was using single quotes in her product names.. It's not an Image Handler issue, but it was good information to report to others (who might have thought it was an Image Handler problem like I did)..
OK, the issue was that another contribution - Ultimate SEO URLS - had been installed which overwrote the zen_image function in html_output.html. This caused the images processing override to prevent Image Handler from running.
Simply really - but I got sidetracked in looking at IH rather than the underlying issue!
Doh!
I think this is the patch to which they are referring: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...postcount=2147
It make it so you can hover over the "medium" or product image and it will pop up with the large one. It works great! :bigups:
I made a small change which is noted in the readme file, there was a missing <br /> that causes the "zoom" text to sit next to the image instead of under it if the "medium zoom" box is turned off in admin.
The other note of caution with this is patch is, if you have made the suggested changes listed in the security patches to the includes/functions/html_output.php file, do NOT directly upload that file from this patch, but instead do a compare and merge them or you will undo your previous changes. :wink:
All the other files can just be uploaded as-is once you change the YOUR_TEMPLATE file name to your actual file name.
You can view the patch in action here: http://bestsewingdeals.com/zen-cart/...oducts_id=1619

Keywords: medium zoom large patch
If you are getting the dreaded javascript pageY error, open your includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/jscript folder and make the following tiny change to the jscript_imagehover.js
Very near line 124 you should see:
ycoord += event.clientY - Math.max(0,(0 + zoomimg_h + (5 * padding) + event.pageY - docheight - truebody().scrollTop));
it should be:
ycoord += event.clientY - Math.max(0,(0 + zoomimg_h + (5 * padding) + event.clientY - docheight - truebody().scrollTop));
The links in this thread to the support no longer work and the ones with instructions aren't very clear. :blink: Hopefully anyone looking for the fix will find it here. :smile:

Thanks.
Like the use of keywords.
For those that want to replace the file instead of making edits...
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...postcount=2340
I wish I would have seen your other post earlier! It would have saved me all that time. I didn't think to search for the jscript page, I searched for the error so your post didn't pop up. :bangin: :frusty:
I was having so much trouble finding things I decided to start being pro-active and use keywords :bigups:. I do that on a lot of my product pages to help people find the items because the search (at least in OSC, I haven't tried zen-cart search yet) isn't very helpful. :wink:

I have a customer using Safari web browser on a Mac. The hover isn't working for her. I've installed Safari on my PC, and the hover does work for me. Any ideas?
Have her visit this page: Test for Java and it will send her to the proper download for her system.Quote:

If she doesn't see the little dancing Duke logo for Java, she doesn't have it installed at all, if she does, she still may need to upgrade.

I need to put photos at the top of each of my subcategories. They take up a lot of space, and appear on each page in the subcat. Is there anyway I could use Image Handler 2 on those photos? It would be really great if I could shrink them down, and pop them up when you hover.
Here's an example:
http://apeekintoyesterday.com/store/...h=4_43_165_335
If you have IH2 installed and configured properly it should do that automatically for you.
Just upload an image via stock Zen Cart, by editing the cat or subcat in admin.
Admin -> Categories/Products, go down a few levels until you find cat or subcat you want.
Then click on green e button and go to Category Image, Browse button, upload your image.
IH2 does the rest.
Thats exactly what i was talking about.
I just wanted to know why it wasn't available as part of the normal download because when i was doing a new site i had to search for this patch again to get medium images to zoom.
Someone could winmerge the security fixes and include this in the downloads for Image Handler.
You might want to fix your queries as that is way too many.
Install the latest version of Query_Cache from Datadiggers-com
Don't use the downloads section here as it's an old outdated version of query cache. You will find it greatly benefits your site.
For those getting that y error mentioned on the last page there was a Imagehover fix for this - It's somewhere in this thread and i'm surprised once again that no one has updated the download section to incorporate it.
Forget the last part of my post.
The fix was for this.
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...658#post517658
An internet explorer 7 error issue.
This "patch" includes what is IMO "optional" behavior, and should NOT be included as part of the Image Handler2 add-on. For those of us who use lightboxes or other image viewing add-ons, this "patch" interferes with that functionality, and those who want the default "larger image" link functionality that comes with Zen Cart they may not want this "feature"... Just my opinion..
That said there is nothing stopping anyone from bundling up this patch by itself and uploading it to the Add-Ons section as a stand alone "add-on" to Image Handler.
Many people will not be aware of the patch until they do a long search and eventually 3 years later after digging through countless posts they find the information.
Why not have it as an optional install in the Image Handler folder and clearly labelled about what it does and what it will also prevent you from doing regarding lightbox etc.
At least give people the choice rather than having them wade through the forum posts to find the information.
Let's be very clear.. this behavior modification is not a patch at all.. It is a code snippet that adds alternate behavioral functionality for product page images.
The way it was previously posted (with keywords) should help those searching for the same functionality. Searching for answers is somewhat the nature of the beast in open source apps..
You post this statement as is some imaginary "them" is reading this and taking it under advisement.:laugh::laugh: If you feel so strongly about this you could do this yourself.. Bundle up the code snippet and instructions and upload it as an Image Handler "supplemental" add-on..
hey guys,
IH2 works perfectly on a 1.3.8a install with the security patch, except the preview function doesn't work in the admin section. should i care? i tried to re-install it etc, but the imagelinks are still "/shop/shop/storemanager/images/ih-test.png" etc.
best regards
I have the most recent Zen and IH2 installed but can't seem to get the image to show up when I hover over smaller images.
Its turned on in settings.
In order to fix the jumping around issue, I recently copied the css, jscript, and popup_additional_image folders from default to my custom folder. THAT WORKED GREAT BY THE WAY!
When I scroll over a small image, the text label comes up perfect but there is no image.
Is there something else I should have copied over from the default folder?
Do you think it's user friendly to have to make people wade through countless posts or put in search keywords to find things when it could be so much simpler to include something as an optional extra in the downloads folder.
The functionality this extra code adds is worthwhile so i really don't see why it cannot be included as an optional extra in the same way fast and easy checkout has a folder which is an optional extra for the admin area.
Why make people search all the time. Why not go one better than the competition ( other shopping carts ) and include additional features to add ons as optional extra's in folders clearly labelled optional extra's.
I just cannot understand your objections and the way you try and present your objections. It makes no sense to me.
Whoever is looking after the Image_Handler contribution could easily present this as an optional extra for download within the Image_Handler folder. Make it easy for newbies and old timers to find everything instead of searching for it all the time.
It's a win-win situation for all if that was done as it could clearly be labelled and people get given the choice and surely you are not against choice. Surely you are for making things as easy as possible and while you may think doing a search is easy i would say to you that many people will not bother because many people will be unaware of this additional extra for Image Handler thus why would they do a search for it.
It's really all about choice though and as a community i would have thought that people would support optional extras and freedom of choice.
I wish i had found this addition for Image_Handler over a year ago instead of 4 months ago. The reason i didn't is because people generally don't visit these threads unless they run into problems. I ran across it by accident really so you can imagine many people will miss it and thats why including it as an optional extra within the download folder is a good idea.
I'm not wanting to display a photo FOR the category, but rather on the page when the category is selected.
Here's an example:
http://www.apeekintoyesterday.com/st...&cPath=391_126
All those photos at the top show the product in use, and are a huge tool for me selling product. But they take up a lot of screen, and as the user pages from page to page, those show up on each page.
I need to be able to show the enlarged photos, since those really show off the product. But I don't want to take up so much space. I hover/pop up would be perfect.
Second option might be to not show them on pages 2 through x within that category. But I don't think this can be done.
http://talk.hairextensions101.com/im...s/eusa_doh.gifOh brother!
Here's the point you seem to be missing that I am trying to make.. The "Whoever is looking after the Image_Handler contribution" is this community. This is an open source application. It's free, the contributions are free, and it's run by a community of (basically) VOLUNTEERS. Which means that if YOU feel this strongly that this additional functionality should be offered as a choice, then YOU should bundle it up and upload it in the add-ons section so that people can access it.. The last person to post an updated version of this contribution doesn't HAVE to do this, and may not, but YOU can.. I suggested bundling it as an "add-on" to Image Handler contribution so that it's easier to find.
For the record.. You read WAY more into what I ACTUALLY said.. But since you tried to "read between the lines", let me address a few things.. While I personally don't think this functionality is that vital, clearly others do.. Does that mean I'm against choice??? Ummmmmm NO.. and also for the record I just don't think that searching this forum for information is that big of a deal either.. If you deal with enough open source software you get used to the idea that you will need to search the forums to find the information you need.. So while it would be nice to have everything at your fingertips, the fact is that in the world of FREE open source software that is not the case.. So IMO it's more important that this community is willing to share information.. In the case of this community because the members of the Zen Cart comminty are willing to share their time and knowledge, having to search for the information I need is no big deal..
Now before you beat the dead horse of why can't this just be added to the Image Handler contibution, it can.. YOU can, as a member of this community, bundle up this code snippet and upload it to the contributions section. You can repackage the entire Image Handler and "include additional features to add ons as optional extra's in folders clearly labeled optional extra's" or you can package just this code snippet and upload it as a standalone add-on which is an "include additional features to add ons as optional extra's in folders clearly labeled optional extra's". Either way if YOU feel this strongly about it, the point is that YOU CAN DO THIS without waiting for someone to agree with you and take the baton.. After all as a member of this community you are part of the "Whoever is looking after the Image_Handler contribution".
Nor me but the amount of hours i have spent at the computer lately i wish i did.
I uploaded the add on and original image handler files and both are in their respective separate folders and i named the add on as an optional extra and credited the author of it. It's up to the moderators whether to include it.
Okay, thanks. I posted here, because I was asking if I could use IH to pop up enlargements for me on these pictures. So that answer that question is no.
@ diva,
I very much respect your input on all the subjects I have seen so far; however I must caution you on engaging in off-topic debates.
People complain all the time that the thread is too large, several solutions have been offered, one recently by the original author, yet users keep whining.
Let's not make the thread even larger by engaging in off-topic.
If we were to follow suit to this new "contribution", users with more credentials (re tophand) could have done so much earlier, yet they humbly chose not to.
There are many suggestions, "fixes", mods, etc. in this thread. If every one felt entitled to upload their own we would have a second large thread, only in the download area.
Let's keep everything in its place, respecting choice does not mean to cave in to wanton behavior.
I vote against putting all these pseudo-patches in the downloads area and encourage moderators not to include it.
Just making sure my question didn't get lost.
Anybody have a clue about my question on page 405?
Thanks in advance.
Please believe me when I say that in my last post on this, I was DONE with this particular line of discussion for all of the reasons you stated.. The point of my lengthy post to need_help was as follows:
- Anyone REALLY needing this functionality can search for it on this forum like we all do whenever we're looking to do something in particular with our Zen Cart sites.
- If he felt that the functionality was SO vital (I still say it's NOT that vital or even an often requested piece of functionality), that he was entitled to upload this "vital" code snippet to the downloads area and see if the moderators approve it.. I personally think that IF the moderators approve it, that it should be a VERY separate upload, and NOT included in the Image Handler add-on.. (Because FRANKLY the hover affect on the product image could be achieved WITHOUT Image Handler)
- I do agree with you... Every single tweak, modification, etc does not need to a part of every add-on. For one thing the folks who are really maintaining the main add-on aren't necessarily gonna keep up with these tweaks and mods..
Anyway in the name of letting this beaten horse die, I'm done with my contribution to this thread hi-jacking.. Back to our normal programming..
Frankly Diva i consider what i have done to be helping out.
I consider it helping out because for almost a year i had no functionality with medium images zooming to large.
The whole purpose of Image_Handler should be to provide an option to allow small images to zoom AND medium images to zoom to large.
Your post is disgusting to me and it's hostile. Especially the last part regarding thread hijacking.
I am done with this discussion and possibly this forum as people like you just insult and degrade and frankly offer poor options.
The options to you are search, search, search, - I already made it clear that newbies might not be aware enough to search for this particular function and including it as an add on patch is a very good idea. You said i should zip it up and include it in the downloads section - I did that and now you come back on and have yet another dig at my suggestion and complain yet again.
How can any reasonable person object to having this as an optional extra ? You give people the choice Diva you don't make them wade through a forum looking for it.
Is this some sort of cliche issue ? Have i come here and annoyed you because i'm not part of some cliche ?
I can't be bothered coming here to help out and facing people like you who are just obstructive and annoying as hell.
Your post degrades me and belittles my attempt to help people with a function that i i believe others consider vital to Image_Handler.
This place has some good people helping out and then it has the obstructive ones who just want to make us all search for ever more and waste time searching and asking for help when the help could be right there in the download section.
Ok Diva have a great day and whatever your issues in life are please leave me out of them and try to cut out the personal attacks because thats what your post is.
I also don't need to hear i'm too sensitive and i don't need to hear how this is how forums are. Your post is the sort which puts people off helping. It's put me off and i think i'm going to just not visit here unless i really need to get some help. Thats a shame too as i feel 18 months experience learning zen cart would mean i could help others with certain issues but i just don't want to come to a place which has rude people like yourself.
In between telling each other off, could someone take a quick look at my issue that pertains to this forum? Its posted on page 405.
I would double check that you have all of the files installed in the correct locations.. If you have a custom template make sure that template specific files are in your custom template folder.. Also a link to your site might be helpful..
I probably don't have everything in the right folder.
I also cleared the bmz_cache folder too in an effort to fix it.
I'll PM you my site info now.
I have installed IH 3 times now over the past 3 weeks. I get everything in the admin as it suppose to be. However, I am not getting images in (my template) product info page.
progroom dot com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=61_109
I don't want to install anymore mods and continue designing until I get this working. Any help would be appreciated.
Kaddie
I am uploading an image through the original ZenCart way, then I add the IH images. Am I adding images correctly?
Kaddie
I have only uploaded an image for the one product info page. In the source page it states:
<noscript>
<a href="http://progroom dot com/shop/index.php?main_page=popup_image&pID=735" target="_blank"><img src="images/medium/stylistwear/SW109-147-3.jpg" alt="Stylist Wear Groomers Jacket with Collar" title=" Stylist Wear Groomers Jacket with Collar " width="60" height="0" /><br /><span class="imgLink">larger image</span></a></noscript>
I have removed it from the above folder. I have moved it to the large folder. I have deleted it all together and I still can't get IH to work.
The images you are talking about is a complete different product that I am not working on. I am working on apparel/jackets/stylist wear jacket with no collar.
Kaddie
Hey there.. :smile: I looked at your PM, and it is hard to tell from looking at the list of files/folders whether you have everything installed correctly.. (don't know if all the directories/files were copied over to your site.. You don't need files from the default template folder. However you do need to make sure you have correctly copied over the Image Handler files to your site..
For the part highlighted in red, I would unzip the Image Handler add-on, rename the includes/templates/templates_custom folder match your custom template folder name and then just copy over EVERYTHING to your site.. I believe that the heart of your issue is that you don't have Image Handler fully installed..Quote:
Copy the following directories into your Zen Cart folder.
* admin
* bmz_cache
* images
* includes
Make sure that the "bmz_cache" folder's permissions match those of your
images folder (e.g 0777, 0775 or 0755).
Go to admin->Tools->Image Handler 2->Admin and click "Install Image Handler"
If you use a custom template, copy the contents of
includes/templates/templates_custom into your custom template folder or
merge the files if the target files have already been customized by you.
Hi DivaVocals,
Ok, I added another template that I had. I added the IH code to the template. I reinstalled step by step all other folders and files and I still see no image for this product.
http://progroom dot com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=61_109&products_id=735
I am absolutely going crazy as I have got to get this store to zencart from osc and I have over 2000 images. The bmz_cache permissions are the same as my images folder 0777.
I have redownloaded and installed. Am I suppose to add the shopad folder and files?
Thanks,
Kaddie
There is no image for this product. Just get a error page.
http://progroom dot com/shop/images/medium/stylistwear/SW109-3-lg.jpg
You only need to upload 1 main product image, the largest image you want to display to the /shop/image folder. IH will create the small and medium image from that image.
Might have trouble using image file names like SW109 if you are planning to use additional images.

When I looked in the source file the images show being located in the medium folder and I don't understand why it shows that particular folder. It should be in the large or wherever.
Thanks, Kaddie
I installed image handler as one of the first addons when I started work on my cart. I added a number of products to test functionality, layout etc and all seemed to be well.
I've installed a number of other mods since then and I'm am now trying to add more products.
When I am on the image handler "page" of my admin (the management tab) and try to select a product to add an additional image to, after I select it from the drop down, the page jumps back to the admin tab.
I've looked at all my other mods and none of them seem to have any files that would effect image handler, certainly no modifications of the same files.
Has anyone had the same issue?
I've carefully searched this thread and haven't been able to find an answer.
My other mods are,
Oz Post
Newsletter only
about us (extra page maker)
css drop down menu
user currency
returns form
attribute separate stock
cherry zen template
recent security patch
I hope this is enough info for some one to help
Thanks, David
I have resolved my issue from the above post.
I noticed (after a nights sleep perhaps) that although my files were intact and most of IH2 seemed to be working correctly, it wasn't installed. That is to say it had the option on the IH page in my admin to install it.
I simply clicked it and all seems well again.
I have no idea how it became uninstalled.
Perhaps some one with more programing/zen experience than myself could shed some light on this if other folks find this happening.
I'm suspicious that my recent renaming of my admin folder might have caused this.
If that is the case, others who are finally getting around to doing this with the new security patch might experience the same problem.

I copied the IH files over again but they appeared to be the same.
The BMZ permissions are set the same as the image folder.
It appears that images are being generated and stored in the BMZ folder though. I cleared it before and now they are back.
Tell me what I could have done in regards to maybe the image file names or the image sizes?
I am getting the text on the imagehover but still no image.
I have installed Image Handler2 (several times now) & it works a treat.
Is there any way to suppress, or switch off, the image that pops up when you mouseover the additional product images. please?
Hey guys.
This is an absolutely great add-on. Thank you for making it available.
I have added 10 additional images to be shown here but only 6 of thme are showing up? is there a setting that i have to change?
Thanks
Image handler seems to be messing things up all of a sudden. When I add a product and picture the whole category goes blank. If there are items in a specific category they all go away. The page loads but the main section is just plain empty. If I remove the last product everything comes back. It only happens when i put an image with the product.
I recently did the security update and ran into some issues and had to undo it. In redoing that I had to run the debugging to fix a blank screen. fixed that issue. The debugging shows no issues with my current problem.
PLEASE HELP...i have installed all the PHP of image handler again but am getting no relief here. Not sure how to completely uninstall it and reinstall either.
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Hi,
After hover over images I have images very small.
Size of original image is 230 x 133px. This is for whole shop.
Size of small image is 150 x 100px.
After hover is approximately 150 x 100px too.
I need size after hover approximately 230 x ....px.
Is it possible? This is very important for me.
Thanx
This must have been posted 100 times already, but I see people coming back to the same problem time and time again. Notice the 80 in the below Configuration -> Images, this setting needs to be the same all across, it can be changed to something different but it has to be CONSISTENT for IH2 to work.
You don't need to set both dimensions, one is enough, you can choose either width or height.
You control your hover via the Product Info dimension, that is not the same as 80 in below page, you can set it to whatever you want but it cannot be larger than your largest image (IH2 does not enlarge images).
If your IH2 does not work, make sure all files are in correct location, that they are not corrupt from bad FTP transfers, and that there are no javascript conflicts.
Easy way to avoid them is to move the javascripts that IH2 places in your template_default to your custom template, make sure it is active.
Make sure IH2 is installed. Admin -> Tools -> Image Handler2 -> Admin.
Set permissions in your images and bmz_cache folder to 777.
Look for tophand's jscript_imagehover.js and replace with that one.
That's IH2 troubleshooting in a nutshell.

Ok I'm sure this has happened to someone else but I can't find it, I have done the install per the instructions yet I still have no install in the admin>tools>?? nothing here for ih2. I do use a custom template but I made sure to change the install to that folder, please help, I'd like to get this working.
Thanks,
Richard
DOH!! Nevermind, I forgot that I changed the name of my admin folder for security reasons..grrrrr
Peace
So now it's installed and here is what is happening, I have a little "+" sign in the corner of the pictures on the category pages. On my product info page (once you click on the product to get more info my picture has disappeared all together). And worst of all, the mouseover for the large image doesn't work anywhere on the site? Maybe it's just late and I'm missing something obvious but I don't see it. I set all image width on my site to 133 as per the instructions on the previous page or two. Still nothing, I have added the js page to my custom template page as per another post I found, still nothing, what else might I be missing?
Thanks,
Richard
:blink:
ohh: site is www.aprons4you.com if you need to see what I am talking about.
Sorry ckosloff, but this is not result for me. I know that settings and consistent for IH2 to work. My IH2 work fine.
Question was about change size of hover image, ex. change code in jscript_imagehover.js. I wrote that in my functional configuration is size of my small picture 150px x .....px and I want change hover image to large size than automatic calculation of IH2, ex. 200px x ..... (original 230px x ......).
Ok so Iv'e been messing with this all day to no avail, one thing that I have figured out is that my command for on mouseover doesn't call for the image from the bmz cache folder? I have read and re-read the install instructions and I am 99% sure that I have done this correct but still no popup image at all. And I can't even find the javascript reference in my source code anywhere? I'm about to give up on this module and search for another solution if there is one out there?
Nevermind, After a few more hours on the boards and playing around I have figured that you can not use your current photo's to make this work, you must reset all of your images, anyways, it's working now, thanks for the great program...if I was more talented I would write a better readme file for this program to help noobs like myself but I'm a noob not a writer. :shocking:
Thanks,
Richard
Ok, I am frustated and stumped!
I installed IH2 sucessfully on one developement site. When I tried the same thing on another site, I run into problems. I install/unistall 4 times still no sucess.
Once I upload all the 4 files per instructions, I can go to my admin page and click on IH2 under admin>tools. The funny thing is I am not prompted to install IH (as if it running there before). I click install anyways, and it give me a installl sucessful message. BUT when I go look for Configuration>IH2, it doesn't appear there!. To make matter worse on the store my product details pics are gone!
I read and read through 100's of pages on this thread and do not see a solution. What kills me is that I got it to work on a mirror site and not this one. Both are on the same sever.
Please help me !

It seems main_product_image.php in includes>modules, is making my product details images dissapear.
I did the following and I got my images to come back. I don't knw much about PHP. so any help is appreciated.
Quote:
//this is part of original file
$products_image_extension = substr($products_image, strrpos($products_image, '.'));
$products_image_base = str_replace($products_image_extension, '', $products_image);
$products_image_medium = $products_image_base . IMAGE_SUFFIX_MEDIUM . $products_image_extension;
$products_image_large = $products_image_base . IMAGE_SUFFIX_LARGE . $products_image_extension;
I replaced the ereg_replace for str_replace on the new file and it work!Quote:
//this is part of new file that came with IH2
$products_image_extension = substr($products_image, strrpos($products_image, '.'));
$products_image_base = ereg_replace($products_image_extension . '$', '', $products_image);
$products_image_medium = DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'medium/' . $products_image_base . IMAGE_SUFFIX_MEDIUM . $products_image_extension;
$products_image_large = DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'large/' . $products_image_base . IMAGE_SUFFIX_LARGE . $products_image_extension;
Now if I someone could help me with my IH2 nstallation problem, I could be golden. Please PHP gurus need your help!
how to force IH2's Watermark even sizes are same between origin and output? we can also say how to force IH2 to output the photo instead of the original?
I feel so stupid and confused at the same time. I had IH2 installed all the time! I was looking for a spereate link under the admin config for IH2, there isn't! all modifications are through the admin>images link (what an idiot I am).Quote:

My "solution" in the post above, did not work. If IH2 is intalled I cannot see my product details images, if I uninstall IH2 the images come back, what gives? (knowing me, its something simple)
Still having problems with product details images showing up, what could be the cause?
