As that code is just a copy of the zen-cart core code, I'd say you might have the same problem even without this contrib for the additional images section.. but im not sure.Quote:

However, trying to get it to work has been a different story. I tried it on my website first because I was at work at the time and wanted to see how easy it would be to implement. Everything seemed to work fine except that for the tabs all I got were links. When you clicked on the links you saw the different information like it was a tab, just no tab images.
So I get home to try it out on my test server (WAMP5) but I keep getting a parse error thats flagging the very last line in the product info display file. I'll have to dig that up later as I have been trying to work out the issues with no luck.
Ive read over the installation files but Im not getting a clear understanding of how this thing installs. In my template directory (on the web server where I had at least a partial working example) I just have the default folders, classic and template_default.
What Im not clear on I guess is do I just copy the files to the template_default folder in the given locations (css, jscript, images, etc) or do I create a new folder in that directory, for example 'mytemplate'? If so, the only way I can get ZC to recognize that that folder is there is to copy the template_info file from one of the other directories to it. Even then when I use it, the css is all gone. The only way I have been able to get it to partially work is to just copy the files to the correct directories in the template_default folder and as mentioned above I dont see the tabs, just the links.
I downloaded an additional template just to see if I could get it to work with that, but I guess Im just not grasping how the template structure works. Im obviously new to ZC but I thought I could work all this out but no joy so far. So I would appreciate any direction anyone would care to offer. This contrib seems perfect for me and would love to get it to work. I looked for an updated set of installation instructions but couldnt find anything and I read through the first few pages of this thread, but its quite extensive and I havent found anything in the search so far.
Hi,
Earlier in this thread you had given a link to a custom tpl_product_info_display file to show the tabs to the right of the product image. Since upgrading the to newest version this file no longer works correctly and the new tpl_product_info_display file is so totally different I can't seem to decipher where to place the table and set it up again.
Any chance you have already done this and are willing to part with the finished file again?
Thanks
Rick
P.S. I know you have already had many accolades on this mod but in my opinion it is probably the best mod for zen cart I have seen. Great work!!
Ah :) Welcome to Zen-Cart. Yes the confusion is in the template directory structure. See Zen-cart uses whats known as Zen-Magic... whereby default core files can be overridden by adding additional folder structure with the same name within the base folder. "HUH!?" :P See in your templates folder you have template_default, and classic. By default, your store will use the classic design. The Classic design has files for custom images, color schemes, and some basic layout options. Mostly CSS changes. The bulk of all the display code is in the template_default folder.Quote:

Via the use of Zen-Magic, you can follow the structure of the templates_default folder inside the classic (or any other custom theme you use) template. So you would put the tab jscript, css, templates, images stuff inside the root of the "includes/templates/classic/" directory.
In the Admin panel goto TOOLS->TEMPLATE SELECTION and ensure that classic is selected. If you want to use a different template, you will also have to copy the tab files into that template folder the same way you did the classic one.
The reason you are seeing only links is because it is not finding the CSS file in the right spot.
There is a small learning curve with Zen-Cart and the way it is structured, but after a short time you see why it is like that and why it works so well.
