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

[sadr1an1]

I have looked everywhere, but i didn't find how the link name of the large image is generated. I have $products_image_large, $products_name but i need the large image generated by ih2 with watermark on it.
Thank you.

I've looked and searched all through the docs and can't find answers to these two questions. I have IH2 installed and everything works fine. My issues are these:

I have small zoom on and it works fine(image pop up on small image rollover) in firefox but in internet explorer the rollover images do not come up if the rollover image box is going to be off the browser screen. I know someone in the thread brought his error up a long time ago but i couldn't find a response or fix to it and am just wondering if there is one and where it is.


My second issue is that i want the small image rollover zoom to work on the product page where the small images are the additional image thumb nails but i do not want to the zoom to come up on the home page where Featured Products use the small images or the Category pages which display the small images. Any one know how to accomplish this?

Thanks.
Paul

Hi all, this is a VERY long thread, I must ask to be forgiven if I missed this - but does anyone else have a problem in the admin side, where you have trouble overwriting the main image?

Basically the problem is this:

A product has 1 main pic, and 2 additional views, if I delete the main pic, the other views disappear. If I re-upload the same main pic, the other views re-appear.

A product has 1 main pic and 2 additional views, if I edit the main pic by uploading a new pic, the additional images disappear from admin and the site.

So it seems I'm stuck, if I want to change the main pic, the additoinal views have to be deleted too?

Seems to me that this is counter-productive, as sometimes the client wants to change hte main pic without touching the additional views. Any workarounds / others have had this same problem?

Are you replacing the main pic with a different image with the same name, or are you changing the name? If you are changing the name, you would need to also change the names of the additional images so that they remain associated with the base name to which you have changed the main product image.

Hi Kuroi - thanks for the note - I've done some more reading into this, mostly from this thread, and that each set of additional images for a product is tied to the main pic's filename. I've figured out that if you upload a pic of the same filename, it will not delete the additional pics.

So, a sub-question for you - since you brought it up, is how am I supposed to access the additional pics IF I do change the main pic's filename? In other words, I'm uploading a new main pic with a different filename, then how am I supposed to edit the additional pics to match up with the new filename if they are gone from IH2? Unless you are talking about going to the raw JPG files and editing it there through FTP, which my clients can't do.

The additional images aren't deleted - they're just no longer found as the base filename no longer matches how they start. The only way to see them again if to edit the actual filenames. Or upload new files that follow your new naming convention.

After long time spending on searching on codes, i finaly found how to generate the large image links with ih2:

$imagemedium = new ih_image($products_image_medium,$ihConf['medium']['width'], $ihConf['medium']['height']);
$linkm = $imagemedium->get_resized_image($ihConf['medium']['width'], $ihConf['medium']['height'], 'medium');

$imagelarge = new ih_image($products_image_large,$ihConf['large']['width'], $ihConf['large']['height']);
$linkl = $imagelarge->get_resized_image($ihConf['large']['width'], $ihConf['large']['height'], 'large');
