Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

[beyre]

I just installed the latest version of this contribution.

Am working on this product:
http://www.theironhorseman.com/motor...oducts_id=4794

When I installed the contribution - the popup stopped working ... in that no image shows when the popup appears.

Yes, all files have been installed correctly.

Second problem:
I went into the Manager for IH2 in the admin and tried to add a second image (the back view of the jacket) and I get the following error:

Error!

Unable to determine the page link!

Function used:

zen_href_link('', '', 'NONSSL')

How do I fix that since it won't let me upload additional images?

I don't know why the attibutes and the images sections are STILL a problem with both Osc and Zencart .... they are so anti-tutive. Other carts, you can upload additional images normally and you can add options easily.

I know I shouldn't complain - am just frustrated that we have been moving from x-cart (which has a great product loading setup) to zencart ... over 4000 products ... and can find no easy way to do the additional images since x-cart named them: d_5000.jpg, d_5001.jpg, d_5002.jpg ... Thusly, I'll have to rename all of them (if and when I can find the approprate ones) and pray they load correctly. Some products have upwards of 12+ additional images!

rename all of them...

You don't have to rename anything: IH renames additional images for you.
Example: you load your main image named Zeke.jpg.
Always load default largest image, not medium, small etc.
You load additional image named Pete_SideView.jpg (also default, same procedure).
IH renames additional to Zeke_01.jpg, etc.

But that's the problem ... these are imported, with x-cart's already altered file names as I referenced. These are already in zencart in the /images/ folder. We have to copy them into both medium and large folders and then rename them accordingly so we know which ones, while in IH manager, to grab. Right now, we can't tell the difference between d_2500.jpg and d_2501.jpg ... don't know if they are two different products or part of the same product.

There is no problem with them being in the images folder.
You don't need to copy them into medium and large folders, IH takes care of sizes for you, please don't do that.
Now, if you don't know which image goes with what product, I can't help you there, it's something that you will have to sort out.

hmmmmm so additional images do not need to be in /medium/ or /large/ folders ..... everything can be lumped into the main /images/ folder .... ok.

Now, I'm back to my original problem about the error message I mentioned in my first post above, when all the IH files have been uploaded correctly.

And ckosloff - thanks for helping out! I appreciate it immensely.

If it's not there, IH will put everything there, in the root of the images folder.
The additional image is renamed and placed there, no matter where you took it from, it can even be a network location.
For the rest of the problem I'd rather defer to tophand, he's the expert on that kind of errors and will check your site if you post an appropriate URL.
Quick check: if you are certain that you uploaded all files, check permissions on folders, bmz_cache needs to be writeable (777).

[beyre]

Yes, I did the 777 when I uploaded that folder. But I'll double check.

Edited: yes, bmz_cache is 777

Have you tried other additional images?
Is this just the one product you are having a problem with?

A few things to look into.
The main image as become corrupt. Delete and upload a fresh copy.
Clear the image cache
Image has spaces in file name.

Well, I'm confused.

After everything I did last night, I got it to work on this product:
http://www.theironhorseman.com/motor...oducts_id=4794

Now I do the exact same thing on another product and I'm still getting the same error message:

Error!
