ONE PROBLEM: WATERMARK is now showing on the medium and larger pictures? can someone guide me?:)
Guide you to what?? You DON'T want the watermark?? (not sure I understand what it is you are asking here) If you don't want the watermark, then turn it off in the settings (see the readme file if you need guidance)

Sorry Spelling mistake!
Watermark is not showing on the larger pictures.
And additional pictures dont add as well with some products on the product page on live site.
The pictures are showing in the admin area for IH as attached pictures.
Can you tell me what is the problem?
Thanks.

you have lightbox and image handler installed...did you happen to remember to merge--I think it is the additional images file...
there is a file that needs to be merged which both share so that could be the problem...compare both zips folder to find out for certain which file is the matching one then merge them together by adding the lightbox code to the IH2 file.
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
This must be the largest thread on the forum. I must admit I have not looked at every post. There is obviously much interest in this contribution. I personally want to be able to use this tool.
I seemingly had no problems with the install. I am using the most current version with Zen cart V3.1.9h. I had all of the default Zen cart Demo files installed along with my own template, files etc. I adhere strictly to the override system to the extent possible.
I have a few mods but most all the files are stored in my-template folders.
Several Image handler install files are Admin so they have been installed in my default Admin files. I have a new folder, Uploads installed in Host/Htdocs/Zencart/.
Before the install of Image handler 2.0 I had no product images except the default Test/demo images and icons.
I installed. The zoom feature works. I uploaded about 100 product images.
Here is where I am confused. most of the test/demo files are neatly organized in their respective sub folders. I could only install my product images in the main images directory. The images now appear except there are no files in the med or large folders and I have no Large image display, only the path and a red X. I am now also missing most of the Zen cart test/demo images and some icons.
Something either did not get installed correctly or there is a problem with the program.

I ALWAYS suggest reading/search through any module's support thread.. Great way to know all the ins and outs of the module..

Sounds like something was not installed configured correctly and without the usual compliment of information we ALWAYS ask for in this support thread (link to the a specific product where the issue you are reporting can be seen -- don't make us dig through your whole site :smile:). Without seeing this issue it would be nothing but wild guesses to know what the specific issue was..
I've quoted other posts in this thread with information you might find useful to troubleshoot the issue and to help you understand how IH2 works (and why it does NOT use the _MED or _LRG folders)

In fact a shopowner doesn't have to worry about this at all.. If they upload a main product image named flower.jpg, and three additional images named tulip.jpg, daisy.jpg, and rose.jpg, IH2 would correctly rename all the additional images to the proper naming convention required for them to be recognized as additional images by Zen Cart. So using my example, IH2 would rename tulip.jpg, daisy.jpg, and rose.jpg to flower_01.jpg, flower_02.jpg, and flower_03.jpg.
IH2 takes the name of the main product image and then appropriately names the additional product images so that they are linked to the correct product.
The MOST common reason for additional images to not appear on the product when they appear in the IH2 admin has EVERYTHING to do with using mixed image file fomats for the main and additional product images.. You cannot have a main product image be a JPG while the additional product images are another file format (say GIF or PNG for example)
So the way for this to work correctly is that you must make sure that the main product image and all additional images uploaded MUST be the same filetype.. (I do believe this is covered in the IH2 readme documentation..)
and by the way you cannot "fool" IH2 by simply changing the file extension of the additional images.. If the main product image is a JPG, then you must convert any additional images that are not the same format to the correct matching format.

Thank you for your response.
Yes you are right, I have both programs installed.
What code DO I need to copy and where to put? OR I need to copy all code to one of the file of IH2?
i dont have any background of programming or etc..

You don't need to know how to PROGRAM.. but you will need to understand how to merge the files that both IH2 and the lightbox have in common so that you have the code BOTH modules required to work.. It isn't about picking one over the other.. You need the code that BOTH modules required merged where the two share common files.. You need a file comparison program like Winmerge or Beyond Compare..
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
one of the file is in:
includes>modules>your_templates_folder>additional_images.php
what I did was open them both and compared the files then when I came across the zenbox cod I copied it to the IH2 file....saved then reuploaded it to the folder on the server.
remember to work off a copy of the file NOT the original and I try to put a ~ at the end of the original ones name [additional_images.php~] on the server to have it there should the edited one misbehave the I just remove the ~ after deleteing the edited one...that way I don't kill my store too much
