This is the support thread for AJAX Image Swapper.
I have just uploaded the module in the download area. You can also look / download it here:
http://www.webextremecustomiser.com/...&products_id=1
I am too lazy to write down the information so just read it there ok :wink:
enjoy!
Hi,
Ive just installed this module and it will be a great advantage to have on my website, once i can get it working. At present i have everything installed but i dont get any product images show up unless i have already been into the AJAX manager in the admin and setup a product image for each product?
Does this mod not do any checking to see if an image exists first, if not it uses the satcdard image? I currently have over 2000 products on my website and theres no way i can go through quickly and get all these images updated.
Many thanks
Paul
Hi Paul,
Yes, another user had also the same problem with you. Here is how to swap between AIS and standard view (if there are no images found).
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...161#post486161
By the way,
if you have this module installed, but it is not working - if you go to admin & select a category, the name doesn't show up - please check the following:
1. Have you set up your image attributes?
2. Do you use PHP 5.1 or higher version?
3. Have you shaved today? (kidding)
Hi I Installed now but I have the following SQL error
1146 Table 'ysbase.zen_configuration_group' doesn't exist
in:
[SELECT @last_id :=last_insert_id() FROM zen_configuration_group;]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.
What can it be?
Whoops.Quote:

Fixed the bug in 2.0.1
I just downloaded the application - when I go to unzip the file it says:
"The file "AJAX_image_swapper_v2.0.1.zip" does not appear to be compressed or encoded. It is advised that you obtain further information about the contents of this file from the sender or provider of the file."
This is on a MAC.
I can open other zips etc fine - so it looks like something might be up with the file?
Thank you!

Figured it out - if you open up the ZIP file with something like "textedit" on the mac.
You'll notice at the beginning of the file there is a PHP warning message that talks about "headers already being sent" and the output buffer.
This sits right above all the encoded ASCII character stuff.
Delete the portions that say:
Quote:
<br />
<b>Warning</b>: mkdir() [<a href='function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: Permission denied in <b>/home/webextre/public_html/includes/modules/pages/download/header_php.php</b> on line <b>132</b><br />
<br />
<b>Warning</b>: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/webextre/public_html/includes/modules/pages/download/header_php.php:132) in <b>/home/webextre/public_html/includes/modules/pages/download/header_php.php</b> on line <b>146</b><br />
Delete those lines and make sure there are no blank spaces at the top of the file.
The first column of the first row should start with the encoded characters.
Once this is done - save the file... don't do "save as" - just do "save" - quit TextEdit - now the ZIP file will behave correctly.
To the Developer:
On your download page or somewhere in the header even you need to put:
<? ob_start(); ?>
This starts output buffering and allows multiple headers to be requested. For example your website sends out header information and then when you click download it uses header information again to initiate the file download... this sometimes causes a warning to trip in PHP as described in the block of code that I said to remove from the ZIP file.
Hey, Thanks a lot! I have been looking for the solution to that with no luck til now. I'll try it, thanks again in advance! ;)Quote:

Let me know if you find the module useful
Jay
Hi Jaycode,
Thanks for this module. Works really well. However is it possible for this module to be used in the large image popup window rather than on the product info display page? I have some large, detailed images that would be great to use with this module but ideally i would want to display the images at upto 500 or 600px in size, maybe even bigger if peoples browsers will take it. Doing this on the product info page will obvioulsy make the rest of the site distort and look stupid.
Just wondered if its a possibility?
Many thanks
Paul
Hmm, at this moment, one of the main goals of this module is to avoid using slow-showing popup windows, but yeah, I am actually thinking of the possibility of leaving that to zen slimbox module thus let users choose whether to display them on popup windows or slimbox.Quote:

Am still busy with some projects though, and my exams at uni are coming, so I don't think I am able to do anything with this module until March (going to take a whole month off without computer - replace that with surfboard & diving equipments - in Bali on Feb :D)
Thanks for the suggestion Paul.
Hi, I was about to install this very useful plugin. But then I saw this in one of the posts on this thread:
"Do you use PHP 5.1 or higher version?"
Does that mean that if i have PHP4.x , it wont work?
I have 1.3.7 Zen Cart installed and my Host (godaddy.com) only installs it with PHP4.1..
I looked everywhere on your site, but couldnt find any kind of requirements for the installation. Please let me know if your plugin will still work with PHP 4.1
Thank you in advance
ok.. i figured it out the hard way.. installed it and it didnt work :)Quote:

what exactly do you mean, when you say:
" 1. Have you set up your image attributes?"
which ones?
thanks
Image Attributes can be set up from admin - catalog - ajax image swapper manager, these are the images you set up for your attributes, and after I read that again, it really should write attribute images :p

i must say, although a very good idea and i appreciate your donation to the zen community, i wish your plugin's limitations were clear. It appears that it's only useful when you have an item with attributes and you'd like to have different pictures for different attributes. In my shop, my attributes are just different sizes of the same item, so i dont need different pictures for attributes. and sometimes i dont have attributes at all.. it would be really useful to know this before i went into installing it.
"Can work multiple attributes, having multiple images." is listed as one of the features, but can it work with no attributes? or independent of attributes?
thx.
Good point. Should've wrote that on the readme file heh.Quote:

Hi
I have IH2 installed. Does that mean it's not recommended to be used with this AIS? How do I get them both work together easily?
Also, does anyone know how to get the zooming effect on this following webpage to work?
http://www.endless.com/Clarks-Mens-E...ES6,B000VZUO3W
When you mouse over the shoe, there is this blue box following where your mouse pointer goes and showing you the zoom-in product details. Please advise. Thank you.
This looks like a great mod,. But is there a way to change the next following attribute instead of the image?
For example in my case,
if my first attribute consist of quantities lets say (1000 business cards,2,500 business cards and 5,000 business cards) so depending on the quantity they choose the next attribute should have a bigger price.
hope you could understand my example..:dontgetit lol if so is there a way?
Hi, I have tired to view my configuration/AJAX Image Swapper and there is no information in the Title/Value/Action fields. Do you know why this may be occuring?
I also throught that I might not have installed the .sql file correctly and as a result of reading some of the past posts I have reattempted to install via tools/install sql patches ... and now have 3x blank AJAX Image Swapper sellections in the configuration menu (within Admin console)
I would greatly appreciate anybody's help in a) removing the 2 unwated menu options and b) populating the Title/Value/Action fields.
Thanks, Shaun.
If your host uses cpanel and phpMyAdmin, you can go to the configuration_group table and delete the extras there.
Click on browse for the configuration_group table and scroll to the very last listings. You'll find Ajax Image Swapper listed in the last three. Delete the two that have the higher configuration_group_id. Should be somewhere around 31 to 33 if you have no other mods installed.
I've installed the mod, but I only get the AJAX Image Swapper menu item under Configuration. There is no AJAX Image Swapper Manager unter Catalog.:dontgetit
I looked a the sql_installer.sql. there is not statement to add the AJAX Image Swapper Manager. See below:
Is there something wrong with my downloaded mod?Code:DROP TABLE products_attributes_images;

Hi jaycode, I'm trying to install the AJAX Image Swapper. Everything seems to be installed okay but when I go to the Catalog > AJAX Image Swapper Manager, the Product name doesn't load up after I select the category. I can't figure out why!
I read your previous post that said
>>>>>>>>>
if you have this module installed, but it is not working - if you go to admin & select a category, the name doesn't show up - please check the following:
1. Have you set up your image attributes?
2. Do you use PHP 5.1 or higher version?
3. Have you shaved today? (kidding)
>>>>>>>>>
but I've already made a product in the category and set an option name and option value for the product, so I don't think #1 is the reason.
Would PHP 5.1 affect the loading of the Catalog > AJAX Image Swapper Manager in the admin part? Or is it some javascript thing that isn't working?
Appreciate your help.
I really hope someone can help me. I think this mod is great, and it will really help my site. But after installation there is no AJAX Image Swapper Manager under Catalog.
The SQL patch doesn't seem correct.:huh:
Hi all, sorry for being "off" for quite awhile from the forum. I am having a holiday at my home country, and the internet is pretty damn slow here in indonesia.
Yes, php 5.1 does affect that function. The reason is I was using DOM functions that are only available in PHP 5 and above. That, and encouraging you to upgrade your php version to make it compatible with Zen-Cart 1.4 later on.Quote:

I figured out that the prefix had to be added. Many mods don't mention this. The SQL patch ran succesffully. I have the AJAX Image Swapper under Config. But that's it.
SQL statements don't add anything fro the AJAX Image Swapper Manager. Did I miss something?
BTW the folder with the JS libraries are under my website's root dir not my Zen Cart. Is this correct?
I'm in Indonesia also. What a coincidence?
thanks for your help.
The JS files are normally to be put under includes/modules/pages/product_info, except you know what you are doing.Quote:

my admin/includes/javascript/ only has the calendarcode.js and dependent files.
The thing that puzzles me is that the SQL doesn 't create any AJAX Image Swapper Manager. What does that mean?
I'm still having some problems with the mod.
please see

As you can see the image never loads.
I have my photos in the standard locations:
images/
images/medium/
images/large/
I still have not AJAX Image Swapper Manager under Catalog
I have not configuration tool under Admin > Catalog.
The sql statements doesn't add this

Does anyone have a working example ?
Many thanks Andrew
'tis working on one of our developing sites BUT does not share well with lightbox (using the fual slimbox). Workaround is to add the default image twice and let the customer use the swapper AND click on the larger images at the bottom of the product description to activate lightbox.
Working on getting the image call in Swapper to work with slimbox. Otherwise, loaded fine and works well.
I love your setup, Dealbyethan,... anyone know what this is done with: IH2, or combination of IH2 & AJAX IS?Quote:

My recommendation to all is to unload till this can be fixed. Too many folks out there have been browbeaten into loading IE7.:cry:
Hi All
Is there any way to hide the attributes section, i understand is needed but could be hide?
Thanks for this great mod
You can hiide anything several different ways....BUT
How would the customer be able to select the proper attribute?
:dontgetit
Hi
Really i don't like my costumers select anything,
I only need to show the pictures....
Thanks
If there are no attributes to select (size, color, etc) then why have ANY at all? It looks like you may have put the model number in an attribute? Not necessary and, as you found out, not helpful either.
If you could give us a look at the site, we might be able to understand better.
I think I dont understand how it works, probably becouse of my poor english :wink:
Here you can see my site, all products are in tests mode

Iam get this when I try to setup the admin/catalog/ajax swaper manager
404 Not Found
The requested URL /store/admin/FILENAME_AJAX_IMAGE_SWAPPER.php does not exist.
Also now my litebox does not work . Does this work with litebox.
Hey, Im back!
@rjspomer: This module don't currently work with litebox. Try to copy paste the files inside the folder again, for some reason your zen-cart doesn't read the files inside includes/extra_datafiles folder. What version is it?
@Scrat: Working example can be seen at my site - I use ajax image swapper to display the image pictures.
1.3.7.1 I removed all the ajax files and will reload.Quote:

I have two different versions. I want to be able to swap between the two. I set the two attribute with their image. What I'm I doing wrong?
The image swapper installed succesfully, but the Image Swapper Manager does not show any products after choosing the category.
So I can select a category, but nothing happens.
What goes wrong?
Please help.
Bram:dontgetit
I have a big problem with these so called addon modules. The author should state right up front that this does not work with this or that module. In the case of theses .
IE7
Light Box
IH2
and who knows what else
I am removing this one. Oh and one more thing you want people to donate for your work come on there is a lot of people helping out here for just the thought of helping someone else. I wish I knew enough to help but all I can do is let others know the issues. And doner beware.
In deference to those who do the mods, we're all subject to the fallacies of the various browsers, the changes to PHP5, etc.
So much of how Zen cart operates is directly effected by forces outside the software. AND... I am continually amazed at the number of folks who will blithely add a mod to an online site.:shocking:
We had tested AJAX ONLY after determining that 1.3.8a would only work with IH2 and Fual Slimbox under OUR operating parameters. Lightbox would not work under OUR setup.
At first, AJAX seemed to work fine on both firefox and IE7. We do extensive tests with firefox as it will give a more accurate representation of css and xhtml. When we tested AJAX with IE, we first used IE6. No problems were found so we took a cursory look with IE7 to make sure nothing wound up on top of itself. Thinking we had a solution, we then, and only then, incorporated into a working site.
Our fist indication of trouble was when the customer went to a friend's place and said "take a look at my new site." IE7 and the Image Swapper have combined to make our life miserable, once again. The fact that Zen is primarily PHP generating html, it falls under different rules when combining html code with JavaScript. PHP prefers JavaScript to be loaded outside the code. Firefox doesn't care and loads the images. Html validators don't like the <script> tag with out the style option. AND... Worst of all, IE7 has decided to resurrect the "I won't work if you try to run a script inside the <body> tag." Sometimes the browser will present the page but, hitting F5 will give some scary results. Sometimes IE7 simply says it is not able to load the page.
All this is said for two reasons.
First, a mod developer can't possibly be expected to test all possible environments for their mod.
Secondly, it's our responsibility to try to "break it" under a TEST environment.
If you do these things, there may be the occasional :eek: but, you can't fault the developer for trying.
We are working on a solution for OUR situation. If we are successful, we will post a workaround.
Don't get me wrong I understand and don't expect all mods to work with every other mod or browser with out some issues, but when a developer is out there selling a service and a mod then he should make his potential doners aware that there are issues. And then go and make it known in the forum. In to many of these forums you have to go thru 100's of pages to find the issues. They should make it clear in their read me file.
I have learned the hard way that before adding mod that looks and sound good read thru ever page of the support forum first.
Thanks
I just installed; One weird thing, is I now have 3 links under configuration to "Ajax Image Swapper!" The first two do nothing, and the third one brings me to correct page.
Can I fix this? Thanks.
Sorry, last week I have been busy, but no worries, I will reply to your questions, one by one.
Especially to rjspomer, I can understand how frustated you were trying to get this module to work. If you wish to, and if you trust me enough, feel free to drop me a private message with access to your website admin and the problem you were having.
I'll be more active in this thread from now on since the problems with my visa has nearly finished.

This question has been asked several times (and answered), you need to set up the attributes for your products.Quote:

Heaps thanks to make this clear, dbltoe. As an addition, I developed this module to help with my own client project, and since I thought it would help other zen users, I posted it up (well and frankly, at first I thought I could make some extra bucks with it :) - but that is no longer my aim).Quote:

Yes, and I am very sorry about that (oh the frustration :frusty:)Quote:

I was aware of this fact, which was a reason I made this module not touching any of the core files, so you can just remove the files to uninstall it.
Good luck with your shop rjspomer.
Hmm, you installed the sql files several times didn't you?Quote:

It's fixed now, but would be easier if:(1) this was a class, not style, that was controlled by css sheet; (2) it was automatically updated from configuration page.
Great app! Thanks.
Anyone want to easily change from 'Clicking' on images to 'Rolling Over' images in small menu (like ############.com shoes does), simply go Includes/Modules/Pages/product_info/jscript_imageViewer.js and do a find/replace from all instances of "onclick" to "onMouseover"... works great here.
as my 11 year-old granddaughter is want to say...
Snot! Kid talk for it's not.
Yours is not working when you click on the shoe for a larger image.
:no:
Yeah, I'm still cleaning it up...clicking on large image doesn't work due to absolute positioning & z-index's on my site. Might turn the feature off altogether. I wonder how many people really click to see larger images..?Quote:

- New installs are bombing because the first command is to drop a table that might not even exist. Adding "IF EXISTS" stops the mysql error.
- zen_ is a common prefix that is added to the beginning of database table names when initially loading ZenCart. It was in the one spot and NOT in the others. That caused yet another mysql error.
- If you DO NOT use a prefix, search and replace "zen_" with "".
- If you DO use a prefix that is different from "zen_" (like "mystore_"), then search and replace "zen_" with "mystore_".
Hope this will help some of you out. The only disclaimer I have is that I NEVER use the admin to upload mysql. I use either a commercial program or phpMyAdmin.
I'll leave my comments on the installation file setup for another post.
Is it possible to have two IF EXISTS's ...one that adds to the table only for the databases w/ 'zen_blablabla', and the other that adds to the table for databases labelled 'blablabla'? That way this discussion is never an issue in the future? (not sure if this is even possible, just wondering?)Quote:

UPDATE configuration_group SET sort_order = last_insert_id() WHERE configuration_group_id = last_insert_id();
SELECT @last_id :=last_insert_id() FROM xyz_configuration_group;

You can omit the first DROP query since it doesn't do nothing for fresh installation.Code:SELECT @last_id :=last_insert_id() FROM xyz_configuration_group;
Good luck
Hold on, I don't think the IF EXISTS is of any issue to this, since even while it generated an error, it doesn't stop the query from running, if you install it from admin page. Just follow the installation steps from readme file, its already working(isn't it?).Quote:

The admin panel's Install SQL Patches MAY take into consideration the prefix but I haven't found where the configure.php setting is saved in the database. Also, I can't help but think that the mixture of prefix - no prefix could possibly help. Not trying to cast dispersions on anyone's ability. Just letting you know what we've had to do to get this working.
Not done looking but certainly open to those much smarter helping with the problem.:yes:
When the sql upload fails under the old method, you often wind up with two listings under Configuration. If you delete the wrong one, the ID will not match the setting in the configuration-group table.
Things only get worse from there.
Things known for sure:
The list of things still not known is too long for here but we continue on.
- This will NOT work without attributes on EVERY product as products without attributes just sit and spin waiting for an image.:no:
- This will NOT work without PHP 5+:no:
- The existing file structure does not put some of the files where they are needed. (web images folder is wrong):oops:
chuckienorton,
In reference to the onMouseover versus onclick, I would only change the one at or near line 36 in the script-imageViewer.js.
Changing all of them may frustrate the customer when they hover over the "lightbox effect" close box by mistake.
I would say the two at lines 492 and 493 would be optional.
good call! Your right, it would be a bad idea changing all of them. I disabled the larger image part, so I didn't even think about it. Thanks!Quote:

How to uninstall AJAX IMAGE Swapper thoroughly? IH2 cannot work with it:frusty:
You may have made an installation mistake OR you are not using php 5.2.
We've found that the two work well together except for the AJAX centering problem with its lightbox feature and that is strictly a JavaScript fix for that area.
It works if the opening browser is not set too small and the customer doesn't resize the browser window during viewing.
Still hoping someone will com up with a fix for that:( jaycode?
Anyone have an idea for how to zoom 'in-screen' on an image? Are there any modules that might make this available? Preferably, just hovering over the image would bring up a larger image w/in that image box (so a user doesn't do any clicking to start it, or leave it).
Think it's possible?
It can't be helped can it? Okay then I think now is the time to work on this module again...
By the way, I have uploaded the new version, if you have any problem with images not appearing, try the new one!
To uninstall, revert back everything you do during installation, and run the DROP query in the sql_installer.sql. It doesn't change any of the core files so uninstallation shouldn't be that hard.
I haven't thought of anything for zoom in...
Yo jaycode, I tried to install the newest version (2.0.3) but it seems like the image is not displayed. Weird.
All I wants to do is to make the additional images swappable.
BTW, why too many js files? Have you tried xajax? I think it would make things easier.
Regards.
Throwing my two cents worth in........
The actual image swapper portion works under 2.02 with the exception of the lightbox/slimbox try at enlarging the images. Haven't tried the new one yet.
Why not consider adding connectivity to the FUAL slimbox INSTEAD OF trying to perform both functions at once in Image Swapper? That would eliminate the conflicts with anyone who has lightbox or slimbox already installed AND eliminate the drawbacks of a non-resizing enlargement in Image Swapper.
I do have fual slim box as well, and I want to list my additional images in a nice box (swappable :d)
I have thought of an idea tho, this wont be too hard with the help of xajax.
Regards

I have a shoe store and I need to be able to show "views" of each shoe - back - front, left/right side and bottom.
Looks Like a great mod, but I want to be sure its really what I need before installing.
Unless you only sold black shoes, you'd have the color attribute. Use Image Swapper to show front, back, side, top etc of each color.
Be sure to set up the attributes something like:
Color -- Please Select a Color -- default color images
Color -- Black -- black images
Color -- Brown -- brown images
Color -- Pink -- pink images
Make "Please Select..." Default and For Display only. That forces the customer to make a Color selection.
You wouldn't need to add images to the size dropdown but you would want a "Please Select Your Size" default.
Not displayed? in which part was it? Can you provide me with links?Quote:

Exactly like dbltoe said.Quote:

I actually spent some time to write a total new module to be used just for additional images. It also has the scrolling effect just for fun, hehe. I will pack the code and post it when I have the time.
Is that a yes? I just want to use the banner mod because I currently use image handler 2 which I still enjoy using. Will their be a conflict if I use both.Quote:

Well, because my post was not to answer your question. Also, the one of walmart uses Flash, not js. Of course js can be used to do that as well.
I wasn't addressing you I was speaker to the creator of the thread.
I apologize that didn't sound right. I wasn't snapping at you.
Hey, sorry for the late reply @ctcentralinfo.
Should be possible to make it like those on walmart except for the play function. You will need to have it custom made though... You can either post for commercial help or pm me for a quote for this.
@yellow1912: Awesome! you might want to make it work for products with no attributes and can be used with image handler 2, that would be a good complementary for this module. Good luck with that and let me know when its ready.
