    I had the link posted in the thread...then said to myself "why don't you transfer the files one more time just to make sure you are not missing something?". Then it worked.

    http://radiant-holidays.com/radiant_...roducts_id=185 is the example I was working with.
    I mentioned the link because it's not just about helping YOU, others read/research the support threads to find answers for their own issues.. Details posted help us help you, and it helps others who read the support threads as well..

    As I suspected you DO have IH4 installed and I will GUESS (since you didn't say..) that you installed IH4 AFTER installing Zen Colorbox.. The readme files for both modules have clear instructions for installing both Zen Colorbox and IH4 together... A re-install of Zen Colorbox would resolve the issue..

    Ah, now I know what happened! My original IH4 install was incorrect! So IH4 did not actually install at that time. Zen Colorbox was installed after IH4 but that was BEFORE I corrected the IH4 install issue! I then found my IH4 install error which got IH4 installed. But this was AFTER Zen Colorbox was installed! And as I said right before this, I reinstalled Zen Colorbox one last time and that did indeed fix the issue. :)

    In the interest of fully documenting this issue, I would like to address the contents of the readme files specifically.

    I remember reading the below about Zen Lightbox in the IH4 readme....but I was not installing Zen Lightbox!

    If you are using Fual Slimbox or Zen Lightbox with Image Handler4 you MUST read the "Misc" tab.
    I did fully review both readme files. Neither readme file specifically mentions each other by name. IH4 is fully 100% clear on installing IH4 with Zen Lightbox per the quote above. I did finally find a reference in the Zen Colorbox credits saying that Zen Colorbox was based on Zen Lightbox but that is not mentioned anywhere else I could find. But this was not until AFTER the my installation. Would it not be prudent to add Zen Colorbox to the IH4 readme by name and vice versa? I am not sure it would have helped me with my issue. But I am sure that I will not be the only one to miss this important connection.

    Thanks
    Chris

    Would this mod work for the various popup pages eg info_shopping_cart. Struggling to work out which files to edit with what. Thanks

    Not part of the core code.. Images only.. There is a BETA version in the authors Github repo which is in response to this issue: https://github.com/daniel-hopkins/zen-colorbox/issues/9.

    Be advised that the code is UNTESTED and INCOMPLETE, and there is NO SUPPORT for it here really. In order to have continuity across a shop using this module, the plan was to address ALL the popups in the list. 3 remain outstanding, and the author has been busy and has not been able to do any further work on this feature. ANYONE who wants this feature fully functioning to fork his repo and pick up where he left off on this feature would be a hero! SHARE IT with the community!

    I will be submitting an update to Zen Colorbox soon. The updated code is in my Zen Colorbox Github fork of the Zen Colorbox repo.. I submitted a pull request with my modifications to the master repo, but because the author has been busy he has not yet approved and incorporated my changes into his master repo.. So just know that IF you decide to install this version with this code and you also want the LATEST and greatest version, there will be discrepancies between my fork and the author's repo so you will have to merge them together..

    Thanks for the headsup. I will look into it over the next few days.

    FWIW, I just downloaded the Colorbox repository and installed it on a Zen Cart v1.5.4 demo site without issue.

    Cool.. BUT there's a caveat.. Can you test some of the popups to make sure they work.. when I tested the code from the main repo, Daniel had started working on code to make the popups work inside a lightbox.. (See: https://github.com/daniel-hopkins/zen-colorbox/issues/9) It's not ALL popus, but the issue link I posted tells you which ones.. I tested it BRIEFLY, and got some errors (details of which escape me.. I just rolled back the popup code..) Let me know if the popups are working for you..

    Sure.. and if you look at the date Zen Colorbox was submitted, and the last IH4 update, you'd know that Zen Colorbox was submitted AFTER the last IH4 update..

    Submitting an IH4 update JUST to add this to the readme wasn't IMHO a compelling reason to submit and update.. With the recent v1.5.4 release I will be submitting an IH4 update and I WILL update the readme to INCLUDE Zen Colorbox, and also to suggest that folks NOT install Fual Slimbox OR Zen Lightbox anymore in favor of this module..
