Image Handler 4 (for v1.5.x) Support Thread

[DivaVocals]

Just installed IM4. And I am SO HAPPY!
I previously unbeknownst to me, installed an older version of IM2 on a ZC1.5 and nothing, nada. It didn't crash it, but i didn't see it, but then again i was pretty new to ZC at the time. So, i installed Image Manager in hope of finding a good image management tool with watermarks option. Nope. That was still in alpha i think. More work needed.

Then I decided to come back to IM and found v4. WOW! The install was very well documented and all things said for ZC open source model, IM guys really did a great job of taking away as much pain as possible (they even did backup of your files they over write).

The install manual is tabbed for easy to follow instructions.

I had installed Zen Lightbox first so I had to take several extra steps, which in the end turned out only precautionary, as the core files (to my knowledge) were not changed from my original. I did a DIF on the files and found no changes. If you're on a MAC, text Wrangler is great. It has a sweet arrow button to transpose your DIFs to the newer file.

Anyway, I am SO HAPPY now because I've been searching high and low for a loooong time now (tried Gallery3 - sweet project but little in terms of robust plugins like watermark and digital goods shop cart handling).

Thank you ZC and IM!!!!!

Wow.. what a nice post!!! All thanks needs to go to Tim Kroeger for developing this little gem way back when to begin with, and to the BEST volunteers in all of Zen Cart land who have helped keep the documentation tight and the add-on working ever since (nigel, ScriptJunkie, ckosloff, derr mano (sp), torvista!!!

I am so glad you are happy about the auto installer.. We took a little flack for fully automating the IH install code (graciously developed by the venerable niccol), but I think it was step in the right direction as illustrated by DECREASE in the number of support question surrounding the IH installation..

Anybody have any ideas for me?
