IH2 only does products, it has a base image (main image) and then additional images.Quote:

Once you load the main image via IH2 using the default, load the additional the same way, forget about medium, large, etc.
IH2 does all that for you.
Go step by step and you will find the solution.
THanks for the info, I went through the troubleshoot step by step, reinstall IH2 again, and it still does the same thing (see attached link). If you go to the shopping cart when is empty, I can see the watermake files and nice hover effect, but not to the additonal images.Quote:

Zen Cart will not show additional images in categories or empty shopping cart, only main images.Quote:

If I unistall IH2, I can see and click on the product details picture . I install IH2, all I see is the full decription, no picture.
I don't mind if the pictures (images) are not zoom. I just want the watermark effect on the picture.
Here are two links that might help, the first one is to my problem, the second is to what it should look like. The second link is to my dummy site.

OK, gotcha, when you uninstall IH2 you get to see the main product image, the pop-up, etc.Quote:

If yes, try uploading main image with IH2 in Tools -> Image Handler2.
Let us know how that goes.

The image that you uploaded with IH2 probably was already in the images directory.Quote:

Then remove that image from the images folder and put it somewhere else.
Next, go to that product (in IH2) and upload the image with IH2, it should show you 3 sizes right there, and a green ribbon on top of page with legend "saved successfully".
Let us know what troubles you encounter.

Hi all,
I just noticed a new problem with IH2. I installed IH2 last month and installation was successful and was working fine until recently I found that the zooming feature is not working as it should.
I had the "Zoom small images" set to "Southeast", which is the default zoom location.
But for some odd reason, when I mouseover the thumbnails now the zoomed image is appearing in the Northwest corner of the page. At first I thought it was just my browser (firefox), so I tried IE and the same thing happened. I tried on another computer, and same thing happened.
I had to turn off the zoom in CONFIGURATION-IMAGES to stop this from happening. But I will turn it on again so someone can see it and hopefully let me know how to correct it.
My url is:
perfectlinkgifts.net/catalog
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Ed
I would be eternally grateful if someone could take a look at this store I am working on. I installed imagehandler ok [I am using the old version as couldn't get the newer one to work at all and I have the old one on both of my other sites] It has installed perfectly except it is not resizing or showing additional size images. When you click on a product and go to the main page the main image is also missing. I am installing on another persons site and they have a folder under public html where the site files are. Mine are directly under public html so I wondered if this was the problem or if I have just missed soemthing in my installation.
If you look at this page and then click on A little Fishy you will see what I mean. In Image handler only the default size shows.
Thank you in advance
Woohoo never mind I fixed it. prob must have been with me. I uploaded files agaoin and its working. thanks anyway :smile::smile:

You can install a copy of Zen Cart (without any templates) in your local test site, and try IH2 there.
I would like to know what happened when you uploaded that new test product:
did you see the 3 sizes?
what did the legend on top say?
I am considering using IH2...but have this question.
At this point not all of my products have images...and in many cases it may well remain that way for some time. Recently I was able to work out a way so that on the product details page for those products I did not have to utilize the "no image available" box and also could get rid of the "larger image" link. (You can see the discussion of this issue at this link: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=133044
Essentially what was involved was to modify main_product_image.php to create flags depending on whether or not there was an image for the product. Then if not, tpl_modules_main_product_image.php would delete the "larger image" link from the product details page.
So...first, is there anything built into IH2 which allows one to automatically delete the "larger image" link in the product detail page if there is no image.
Alternatively do you think that the following would work when using IH2:
adding the following to your version of main_product_image.php
The '' above represents two single quotes not a double quote....representing the situation when there is no image name.Code:$imageflag=1;
if ($products_image_base==''){$imageflag=0;}
Then in tpl_modules_main_product_image.php adding code (which already exists in my version) which essentially says that if $imageflag is not equal to 0 then include "larger image" link...but if equal to 0 then don't include it.
I know that I could install IH2 and try this out, but I just thought I would check with you first before I go and modify all the files that I need to change and install IH2 to see if you have a thought about this. You may immediately know that this won't work...if you don't know one way or the other, I can try it and report back and see if it does.
Thanks, Ken
I use IH2 on all the zencart sites I've installed and the watermark seems to work fine, except on this last one and there is nothing different between the sites when it comes to which mods are installed extra. Basically, the only difference between the sites are the products loaded and the colors of the design LOL.
I have overwritten the default watermark.png images (all 3), as I could barely make out the originals .... and yet there is no watermark on the images.
Yes, I did change the settings within Configuration>Images on all 3 sizes for watermarks to show.
But nothing shows.
www.vintagegunleather.com
I've now done the same watermarks at .gif with transparancy on and still nothing. *sniffles* I need watermarks urgently ...

Hi,
I'm considering adding Image Handler 2 and Css buttons to two zen cart sites that are slow loading.
There is a How to Image Preparation in Zen Cart form listing one way to optimize images.
With Image Handler 2, you upload the large file only. As it shows optimization default at 85%, I assume Image Handler does the compressing for you.
As these sites are graphic intense, I'm curious if anyone knows which method would result in a faster loading page if I were to optimize each of the three sizes before uploading, or uploading just the large images to IH?
Thanks,
Sandy

My largest image size is set to 500 x 500 but sometimes my co-owner likes to try and slip bigger ones in thinking she can get away with it.
I always catch her because they are the ones that are static images. IH won't create the "pop up" for the ones that are the wrong size as stated in your image set up.
If you load a large image that is bigger than the large size stated in your image set up, it will show but it won't greate the effects like it will with the correct size.

Ok, I got the image handler to work, some what. I finally figured out what the problem is.....the solution well that is why I am back here.Quote:

Your IH2 javascripts need to be in the jscript folder of your custom template, not in template-default.Quote:

If everything is in your custom/jscript folder and they still conflict you have to look into code.

hello - i installed IH2 on 1.3.8
i think it works as designed except that i do not get any rollover images when i go into categories -- only when go one step futher into the product detail do i get a rollover image.
how can i setup IH2 so that when i click on categories/featured products/new products/etc i get rollover images.
on a related note -- i have a review box on the left side when i click on categories and when i rollover a review image a medium size rollover image appears. However non of the prooducts that are below my category heading have rollover images. Please advise. thanks.
A common setup error that has been answered many times in this thread.Quote:

is this another configuration error? thanks.

Can someone look at my 2 posts on the previous page (#4123 and 4124) .... they got passed over.
Thanks!
hi just a quick update -- the images being stuck only happens in Google Chrome. i have checked firefox 3.0.12 and IE8/7/6 and the rollover images appear above the correct product.
must be a browser thing... :) can someone else check their website on google chrome for this behavior? thanks

Hi -
First of all - GREAT addon! Between everyone - hundreds of thousands of person hours saved!!!
One question - I can't seem to find a reference to this in the documentation or the forums (newbie though). It seems to me when I upload additional images via IH2, that I can't upload different images types. I use IH2 to do the individual image resizes, but the additional images don't seem to be recognized if they are a different image type than the first product image that I upload. Is that correct? Just a sanity check.
Thanks a million for the addon - love it! I've coupled it with jquery template and a jquery fancy zoom and I love the look!
Please post a link to that and the procedure that you used.Quote:
Originally Posted by emmtqg

First additional image will be named somename_01.jpg, regardless of what you named it or the format it has.
So, yes, all images for a product have to be same format.
For those who are interested, I was able to adjust the file noted in post 4122 above to allow me to continue not to show the phrase "larger image" on product pages where there is currently no image when using IH2.
Now I have another question. When the image is hovered, in addition to showing the image, the name of the product also shows up....I would like to eliminate this so that only the larger image appears. I don't think this can be controlled from admin (though perhaps I am mistaken)....I tried the developers toolkit to see where the file that controls this might be but so far without success.
So can anyone point me to where I might go to try to modify IH2 to eliminate the name of the product in the hovered image?
Thanks
Ok, I've tried installing and reinstalling Image Handler 2 several times... it doesn't appear in the tools menu.
My website is www.easyrunner.co.uk - the host is Terra Network.
Any help or suggestions appreciated!

Also to use all caps is bad etiquette, nobody is entitled to shout in a forum where everybody volunteers help.
Bad attitude is not appreciated.

:clap:
Joel
Tophand...thanks for the suggestion about the stylesheet...I really did not find a way to use that...however, here is what I did to successfully eliminate the product name from the hover image.
I modified jscript_imagehover.js near the end of the file where it reads:
Original is highlighted in blue...changes in red.
to read as follows:Code:newHTML = '<div><h1>' + title + '</h1>';
newHTML = newHTML + '<img src="' + imagename + '"></div>';
There may be other ways to do this but this worked for me.Code:newHTML = '<div><h1></h1>';
newHTML = newHTML + '<img src="' + imagename + '"></div>';
Then, there was still another factor that I did not like, namely that the original product listing image also pops up the name of the product and that name overlays the hovered image for several seconds...so to get a cleaner look and eliminate that popupped product name, I modified product_listing.php as follows in the area of the file towards the end where it deals with the image:
I modified it to read as follows:Code:case 'PRODUCT_LIST_IMAGE':
$lc_align = 'center';
if ($listing->fields['products_image'] == '' and PRODUCTS_IMAGE_NO_IMAGE_STATUS == 0) {
$lc_text = '';
} else {
if (isset($_GET['manufacturers_id'])) {
$lc_text = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($listing->fields['products_id']), 'cPath=' . (($_GET['manufacturers_id'] > 0 and $_GET['filter_id']) > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['filter_id']) : ($_GET['cPath'] > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['cPath']) : zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($listing->fields['master_categories_id']))) . '&products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing->fields['products_image'], $listing->fields['products_name'], IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_WIDTH, IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_HEIGHT, 'class="listingProductImage"') . '</a>';
} else {
$lc_text = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($listing->fields['products_id']), 'cPath=' . (($_GET['manufacturers_id'] > 0 and $_GET['filter_id']) > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['filter_id']) : ($_GET['cPath'] > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['cPath']) : zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($listing->fields['master_categories_id']))) . '&products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing->fields['products_image'], $listing->fields['products_name'], IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_WIDTH, IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_HEIGHT, 'class="listingProductImage"') . '</a>';
}
}
break;
Note that I changed the field to be displayed by the mouseover from the product name to the product model. However, since I do not show the product model on my listing pages, the mouseover also shows nothing at all. If someone else uses the model number on this page then a slightly different solution would have to be made but I have left it at this for now as it makes it easy to switch back to the name if I should choose to do so at a later time.Code:case 'PRODUCT_LIST_IMAGE':
$lc_align = 'center';
if ($listing->fields['products_image'] == '' and PRODUCTS_IMAGE_NO_IMAGE_STATUS == 0) {
$lc_text = '';
} else {
if (isset($_GET['manufacturers_id'])) {
$lc_text = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($listing->fields['products_id']), 'cPath=' . (($_GET['manufacturers_id'] > 0 and $_GET['filter_id']) > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['filter_id']) : ($_GET['cPath'] > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['cPath']) : zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($listing->fields['master_categories_id']))) . '&products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing->fields['products_image'], $listing->fields['products_model'], IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_WIDTH, IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_HEIGHT, 'class="listingProductImage"') . '</a>';
} else {
$lc_text = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($listing->fields['products_id']), 'cPath=' . (($_GET['manufacturers_id'] > 0 and $_GET['filter_id']) > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['filter_id']) : ($_GET['cPath'] > 0 ? zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($_GET['cPath']) : zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($listing->fields['master_categories_id']))) . '&products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing->fields['products_image'], $listing->fields['products_model'], IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_WIDTH, IMAGE_PRODUCT_LISTING_HEIGHT, 'class="listingProductImage"') . '</a>';
}
}
break;
All in all I am quite happy with this solution as it gives my zoom image a clean look, uncluttered either by an overlay of the name from the original image or from the name appearing at the top of the larger hovered image.
I'm having some folks reporting issues with hovering. I use IE and Firefox, and I have no problems. The enlarged popup is positioned nicely at the bottom of my screen, and as I scroll down, the popups continue to display at the bottom, always the complete image.
But... in Safari the display at the top, and as you scroll down the screen, the popup is off the top of the screen, and no longer visible.
I also have at least one IE user that says she has the same problem - the popups are off the screen at the top.
I have the style_imagehover.css in my /includes/templates/CUSTOM/css folder and in the /includes/templates/template_default/css folder.
Any ideas?
Try tophand's version of jscript_imagehover.jsQuote:

Hi All,
Does anyone know why the images in the categories are displayed in different sizes.
I thought Image Handler would output them all the same size
like 80x80 or 120x120 or 300X300.
An example of what I am talking about can be seen by following this link, I have tried to manipulate my Images settings and to look for a solution in the forum but have not been successful in either.
If you can assist I would be most grateful.
http://www.adulttoys4u.com.au/shop/i...ort=20a&page=2
This page shows some 100x75 or 60x80 or 80X80 just an assortment of sizes, that I cannot control
Thanking
Renz

I was intentionally trying to do that so that when the hover image comes up it is not partially obscured by the title tag of the image.Quote:

last word of caution -- if your large files do not appear it may be because your source file is larger than your max IH image size. For example my source file is 640x514 however i set my max size as 700x800 so that when i do upload an image thats larger than 640x514 the new file appears when i hover over it. So in your case if your source files are 300 x XXX i would change the max height to a slightly higher number than the highest XXX (300 x 400 if your largest file is 300 x 399 for example).Code:Small Image Width 80

I did misunderstand, just saw the truncated code and the "missing double quote" and jumped at it, my bad.Quote:

I don't think you intended it....but your comment sort of sounded like I had sought out your opinion on whether or not my modification was "needed"...which of course I hadn't or that I had asked your permission to modify Zen Cart...which I also didn't do...I was merely pointing out a modification that I found useful for me and posting a way to do it in case some others might find it useful for them.:smile:Quote:

I'm not, that's why I'm not gonna research it.
I strongly discourage anyone of trying this "solution".

Hi First of all many thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed explanation.Quote:

I have worked with zen photo on another site and it outputs selected thumbs to 100 X 100 from any size larger photo and then of course the on click or hover is the master setting of whatever you choose.
I managed to use this setting in admin>config>images..Image - Use Proportional Images on Products and Categories 0, and all the images are the same size, though the images do not enlarge on hover or display on entering the category. So this I found of little use even though the site (images) looks uniform when this is selected.
So unless I am missing something I have to regretfully live with a multitude of sizes for my categories.
One other thing that caught my eye about what you said was the following:
"Also i would recommend installing the additional files for IH2 -- it allows for rollover images of the product details page (looks much better than 'click for larger image')"
I am not sure that I follow this as I installed the whole of the add on Image Handler 2, so where are the additional files that make the roll over function work?
Thanks Again for your time..
Kind Regards

Renz...I don't pretend to be an expert on this contribution...but note the following language from the support page:
Image Dimensions
There are different approaches to setting the dimension of images.
You can do it the normal way and simply specify width and height dimensions in pixels. Set width to 100 and height to 80 for example. If your image is 200×200 it will be resized to 80×80 because this is the biggest size that fits into 100×80.
You can just set width (or height) to e.g. 100 and leave the other dimension blank (or set to 0). Now you specified a width (or height) that the image in question will be resized to. The height (or width) will be calculated according to the correct aspect ratio.
You can for example set it like the first example but append “!” to one value (for example 80! for small image height). The generated resized images are centered on a canvas that matches exactly the given size for the corresponding image. If you specified 100×80! your 200×200 image from the first example will be resized to 80×80 and placed centered on a 100×80 canvas filled with the specified background color. Think of it as kind of forcing image dimensions without messing up the aspect ratio.
Is this the kind of thing you were looking for?
even though 3000 images sounds like a lot you can readily resize them all using 3rd party freebies like winXP image resizer or vista prish resizer (they both work on the context menu level, ie. right click on the images and select resize). if you have a test site you should be able to take your resized images and over write your original images and IH2 should know no difference -- you would just need to clear the image cache and let it rebuild.Quote:

Regarding the extra files to install (which you may have already installed) -- they are located in the "image-handler_2.0-zc137 Optional Extra" folder. Installing these allows you to zoom your large images (ie when you hover over a MED size image the LRG shows up). It may be that you just did not enable "IH zoom medium images -- yes". Hope this helps :)
ps. i think what maineiac13 mentioned above might be an easier solution that you can try...
I set bmz_cache to 777 and I still get a similar error message:Quote:

What else can be done?
Hi folks, i do apologise if i am repeating questions already asked but i have spent a few hours searching and couldnt find anything. if anyone knows where i should go to find out please just say.
PROBLEM: I have zencart up and running, all is well, i install image handler2 and all is well, then after a short period of time, the indes page fails to load anything, and same on all the other pages too...i check bmz_cache folder and its set itself to 755, to i reset it to 777, and the site works again...any idea what i should be looking for or at to try and sort this. its the last hurdle on a small site so just want it out the way now.
zencart: 1.3.8a
No upgrades, just straight to 1.3.8a
i installed slimbox also
i am with heartinternet
any help appreciated :D
Just found out from heart that they dont allow 777...but i read on a number of peoples posts about image handler 2 that it should work with it set at 755...or is there underlying issues? anyone have an idea?
:clap: maineiac13 you are a champion that is exactly it. I did 100X80 to 100X80! (for the selected image set) and whammo they all appear the same size I am over the moon.Quote:

@yellow
I am going to test newer versions of IH2.
So far, I have been updating my old version with some "patches" as they became available on the thread.
I notice a big difference between the old version that I am using and newer versions: a new folder has been added called "shopad".
I think yellow added this folder.
Would you be so kind as to explain what this does?
Thanks.
I have looked long and hard at the shopad folder.
This is exactly the same as the files that go into the admin folder, which is already there.
It is a dupe, therefore no reason for it to be there at all.
Anybody?
One more thing:
in admin/modules there is category_product_listing.php and category_product_listing.php.patch
What is the purpose of the .patch file?
I have tried running the mod both with and without SHOPAD...and have not found any differences in how things work on my site or in admin.Quote:

Which further proves the point that shopad is a dupe, that is not referenced by the other files in IH2.Quote:

Hi - apologies if this has been addressed already. I couldn't find a post on it.
If I set IH watermark large images to "yes" then large images (ie the whole picture) do not appear in Internet Explorer, but they do appear in Firefox. If I set IH watermark large images to "no" then large images do appear in IE.
Any idea how I can solve this?
Many thanks
Hello:
I am having some issues with IH2 and Additional Images.
When I upload a default image via IH2, no problem. It creates 3 images and they show up fine.
Here is the problem:
I get 2 smaller additional images, somewhat scattered below my product info tabs.
I did a 'View Page Source' and then a ctrl f and searched for 'img' and saw that in the area in question, it seems that bmz cache folder is placing those images there.
How do I get rid of that? Thanks for your help.
Hi:
I am wandering if anyone could provide clearer instructions on how exactly to use IH2 to upload images and name them.
Currently when I upload a default file via IH2, it names the large instance of the image with a suffix of _MED, why?
Do I need to use suffixes? Or can I just omit those from my image filenames?
Thanks again.
I recently installed this on a test site but I had one concern. Is there a way to keep the cache filenames the same as the original (for SEO purposes).
You don't need to use suffixes.Quote:

I have IH2 installed. When I upload an image using IH2, it resizes to the 3 sizes, but it does not add the watermark for the large size. I have check admin>images and I cannot figure out what the problem is. I have the watermark for the large image on folder images/large.
The only way I get the watermark to show for the large image, is to upload an additional image for the same product with a _LRG extension and put it in the image/large folder.
Can anyone help me?
