Re: Image Handler 2 Support
Are you saying that the most up to date version of IH2 Ver 2.0 rev 7 is working with additional images? I believe you may have the version PRIOR to that - which works for additional images.

I'm using version of IH2 Ver 2.0 rev 7 and yes it is working with additional images.

includes/modules/main_product_image.php
includes/modules/pages/popup_image/header_php.php
includes/modules/pages/popup_image_additional/header_php.php
includes/templates/template_default/popup_image_additional/tpl_main_page.php
Of these, the only file that has changes in BOTH IH2 and 1.3.9 is:
includes/modules/pages/popup_image/header_php.php
So, would I be correct in assuming that if I reapply all the 1.3.9 files to my shop, then merge the header_php.php file, then install IH2, I should be OK? I realize that I'll then have to do a similar exercise with Lightbox.
Thanks.
I saw where your lightbox works but still no watermark...
did you ever activate for the med image when seen by hovering small image to have the watermark.
I notice that your small image and the hover of it are the same size...maybe that is why the watermark does not want to cooperate with the large image...have you tried increasing the size of your medium image?
did you place these into an override folder in includes/modules/your template folder/additional_images.php and main_product_image.php
along with the ones from the templates section too that and editing the files (header ones in pages) helped too so if you have not edited the new ffiles with the ih2 info then that may be why it does not wish to behave totally.
that is how i have mine set up and it behaves that and editing the files in pages (header ones) helped
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
This is me... eating CROW BIG TIME!!
I just installed the latest version of IH2 and the additional image upload function is now working.
My apologies - When it first came out, we tested it many times and the additional images would not upload. This has obviously been fixed and I was unaware of it.
Dr. BYTE - can you delete the version I put up there??

Re: Image Handler 2 Support
Here was my "beef" as it were in a nutshell.. Your version of IH2 was submitted to the downloads section as if it was a NEW RE-WRITE of Image Handler (which would be the ONLY reason to submit an add-on as a NEW add-on versus an UPDATE ro an existing add-on). Based on what I saw in my review there was NOTHING new, it looked like an UPDATE. (albeit an update based on incorrect data)
I get that you were trying to share and help the community, but you did this with little to NO explanation as to the changes you made when your mod was submitted (ALL of the documentation ckosloff and I wrote were included in your submission with no updates to the changelog at all). Your description of your add-on was identical to the original IH2 add-on with the only change being the VAGUEST of references to a "broken" feature.
You also NEVER stopped by this support thread to inform the community who uses Rev 7 of IH2 of your plans to update it. If you had, the members of the community who use Rev 7 surely would have told you (which is what occurred today) that the "broken feature" you were "fixing" was NEVER broken at all..
Now there are some who took exception to my pointing any of this out and thought I was giving you a hard time.. Not my intent. My concern was the confusion your version could cause. Because of how it was submitted, because the documentation was vague, and because it could cause confusion to the community. Not everyone will take the time to do an analysis to see what a NEW version REALLY brings to the table. Some community member will assume that if it's a NEW version, it must REALLY be new...

1. The latest version of IH2 revised by ckosloff BROKE the additional images function on the product info page. So... if someone added additional images to their products - and they also had that version of IH2 installed - the additional images DID NOT SHOW UP. EVERY site we have tried to install that updated IH2 on did the same thing and we have always had to uninstall and go back to the prior version to get this functionality.
2. So... as I stated in the description - I took the older version originally created by Tim Kroger - one version before the latest version - and changed one or two of the files that needed to be changed to work with 1.3.9
I have tons of clients that NEED those extra images to show up - and I am sure there are many out there that want to use additional images on their product pages - so that is why I renamed it a little to include that it supported the additional images.
I am NOT a coder and I definately am not trying to take "credit" for this mod - I am just trying to help people who need those additional images on their product page.
If this update is a problem with everyone - then I am happy to ask the developers of zen cart to remove it. But until such time that ckosloff (who updated the prior version) or someone else can get the additional images to work in his code and also upgrade it for 1.3.9 - I think it is a necessary addon - at least for the moment....
No worries.. However, I'm not sure what files you've been working off of.. Since the Rev 7 release neither ckosloff nor I have made any additional changes to the Rev 7 files.. What's available now is the same files that ckosloff compiled and submitted as Rev 7.

Awesome!!! The changes required for PHP 5.3 compatibility are minor.. I don't profess to understand them all.. I simply know which lines need to be changed, and what to change them to..:laugh::laugh:
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
You should but remember after you install IH2, you need to compare the lightbox files with the files in your shop.. That's why EVERY SINGLE mod tells you to BACKUP your store first.. There's two reasons for this
1. you can rollback your store if a module install goes horribly wrong.
2. You can use these files to do your win merges so you are merging your changes into your existing store files. (which may have ALREADY been modified)
I normally make a two backups.. 1 to allow me an easy rollback path, and the other I call my "working files" which is where I do my merges. I upload the changed files from my working copy to my development site. If all goes well great.. If it goes to hell in a handbasket, I rollback..

Thanks.
His issue is not caused by any of his IH2 settings.. His settings are fine, and his medium hover is working fine.
His lightbox and IH2 touch the same product page files. Since he did not merge these changes, his lightbox wiped out the IH2 code on his product page.

Re: Image Handler 2 Support
Again - apologies for my error in updating the mod previous to the current one that in my experiences did NOT allow for upload of additional images. Crow has been eaten - and lesson learned from your posts - thanks.
To be honest, <wearing my heart on my sleeve> I have "worried" and even taken offense by your posts and because of that I will most certainly not submit updates any other mods to work with 1.3.9 other than the ones I have already submitted HOPING to help the community. I will leave it to others like you to do this and keep my 1.3.9 updated files on my computer and not share them with anyone other than my immediate clients in the future. :(

Are you sure, as from memory imagehandler uses the ereg_replace function which is depreceated in php 5.3 so you should be getting an error
http://php.net/manual/en/function.ereg-replace.php
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
Actually come to think of it, have you perchance turned off error/warning reporting, as the functions are still in PHP (I Believe/think), but if the warnings are turned off they should work fine
however when the functions are removed Possibly next version of php it will fail,
as itys a local test server, would you mind trying step 2B here
https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=82
I might try it later but i have 2 preschoolers assisting me and until the ZenCart developers pull finger and ###### Bob the Builder to zencart i can't try it yet
