Image Handler 3 Support Thread (for ZC v1.3.9)

Check if you have different owner id's for the bmz_cache folders and the subfolders which are created form zencart!

If they are different folow this:

Problem number 1 resolved!

The problem consist in the ID that "owns the rights" for the subfolders in bmz_cache which are created by zen_cart...

The solution is: Just copy all the contents of bmz_cache to your computer ... delete the files on the server and upload the downloaded ones again! After that set the permisions to all folders and subfolders to 777

And you should be ok!

One question from me about IH3 and Lightbox...


I see that Lightbox changes the file aditional_images.php in which IH3 also has code

When I install Lightbox what should i do with that file? Overwrite? Merge somehow?

Thanks!

The answer to your question is in the READ_ME file. Have a look at the tab "Misc" - specifically the first section that talks about using IH3 with Zen Lightbox.

I am having trouble with zoom on hover. It works ok for products in the side boxes but not in the product listing, new products, or featured products.

My site is http://www.thehookahstore.com/

Places where the zoom on hover DOES work are.

Sideboxes for featured products. and when viewing a product, the section for "Customers who bought this product also purchased" works. Nothing else will zoom.

look at the readme for the settings and make sure yours are set right then post them if you still have trouble

also which browser are you using and its version number. I have an old mac with OS 10+ and the hovers are working in the sections they are supposed to work, even the also purchased place.

you might also need to add that jscript_zen_lightbox.php that you put into the modules/pages and several folders into the products_all, featured and products_new folders

Will IH3 compress my images in a similar fashion to the option "Save for Web Devices" in Photoshop?

good question, that part of IH ahs always eluded me so someone else will need to chime in. I have not used it and only edit my images with Photoshop and the save for web feature.

Yes, compressing and displaying images in various sizes is the primary function of IH3. You can also tell it (via the settings after installation) which image format you want your images displayed in.

Suggest you download the installation package and review the READ_ME in it's entirety to understand everything IH3 will do for your cart. It's awesome!
