Yes, that is way i wish to go. It takes me a long time to locate images in the image folder, as i have not put them into sub folders.Quote:

That is going to be a bit more difficult, isn't it? Is there an easy way to do achieve that? A work around or some program i can use?
Many thanks for your assistance

Not for nothing, but this support thread isn't really the place to discuss this.. That said I'll say this very briefly.. there are a TON of free file renaming software packages out there.. Google "free file renaming software" and you will see what I mean.. and even with a renaming software, it will still likely take some manual work on your part depending how your files were named in the first place..Quote:

I don't know that it's going to be more difficult...but could definitely be time consuming if you have a lot of images.
I don't know of a program that will automatically rename your images for you...but if you've been using extensions on your file names like image1_LRG.jpg (with the _LRG part being the extension)...you're going to want to get rid of the extension anyway. So as long as you're dumping extensions, you can rename the files as you go.
I know that doesn't really help you cut down on the amount of work there is to do, I'm sorry. I'm afraid there's no fast easy way to organize/re-organize a lot of images that have been allowed to pile up in a single folder. That's not a criticism...I've been where you are so I really empathize.
I think you're going to have to take the long road to solve this one. Please don't let that deter you though....the results will be well worth the effort in the long run. The alternative is to leave it as is, and it will only get worse :(

Big respect to you for not mentioning that this is an open source add-on to an open source product and if people do not like their free ( in all senses of the word ) readme files then they could just go and write their own. You know that I believe that IH is unduly complex but the readme files are very good and that should be noted and I am sure that what people intended to say was ' thanks for putting all that work in without any reward ' --- and that it just came out sounding like they were being foolishly critical.
Hey Niccol.. Thanks!!:hug: What a nice thing to say!!! I can't take full credit.. ScriptJunkie and Nigel did their fair share in helping to shape the readme document into what it is today.. We're all pretty pleased with how it turned out..
I do know how you feel about Image Handler :laugh:.. Thanks for the CONSTRUCTIVE critic.. :smile: Image Handler isn't for everyone, but I have mad respect for those who can articulate clearly why versus just throwing out the "it just sucks" type of comments.. I know you are exploring putting together an image management add-on of your own.. So hopefully soon there will be another choice for image management for those who want to do it differently if you decide to submit your solution.. (I will certainly be looking out for it to test as well..)

Hello everyone! After upgrading from IH2 I keep getting warnings with this debugg log:
I've used kaboom to convert the coding but this didn't help. The log is created like every minute so it's pretty annoying. But IH3 works fine. I'm using the latest version of ZenCart.Code:PHP Warning: htmlentities() [<a href='function.htmlentities'>function.htmlentities</a>]: charset `windows-1250' not supported, assuming iso-8859-1 in .../includes/classes/bmz_image_handler.class.php on line 690
Any suggestions how to fix this? Thank you for your responses.
It is a character encoding issue, which isn't really to do with IH at all.
If your character encoding is set to windows-1250 for your site, which the error suggests, then there is a lot of docmentation out there about issues with htmlentities.
The character encoding is set in the file languages/english.php ( or it's override ). You are looking for a line that looks like this:
That is the default setting for Zen Cart -- iso-8859-1. It looks like you or someone else has changed this and you need to decide why. Or alternatively other changes have been made to your site that have messed up the character encoding.Code:// charset for web pages and emails
define('CHARSET', 'iso-8859-1');
As always it is actually a heck of a lot easier for people to help you if you give people a bit more information - like a URL for example.....
