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

[tophand]

Is there any info on troubleshooting an IH2 installation? I have tried repeatedly to get IH2 working on my ZC, but despite hav ing started with a clean ZC, I cannot get IH2 to install. No entry on Tools menu, no additional options on Config/Images panel.

I have checked file permissions, copied the appropriate files into my custom template folder - but IH2 just won't show up.

Also have you check that you did upload all the files and they are complete?

IH2 problem fixed: Installed to WRONG folder!

Corrupted entire ZC. Reloaded clean /includes folder, all is well. Now just have to figure out how to get IH to do what I need it to do!

This thread is losing effectiveness... it's just too big. How many times have the same support questions been asked because we can't locate the fixes in this monster thread? If we can't have a sub-forum dedicated to IH, wouldn't it be good for the mod contributor to just set up a free Google Group?

I posted a support request for this same issue back in Sept 08. The answer is somewhere in here but I can't locate it, and after upgrading ZC and IH, the problem has returned.

In IE, the large size popup window is not sized to the image, it's only about 100 px high.

Can someone please point me to the fix?

TIA!

I'm using Image Handler with v1.3.8a and am having trouble getting clear images for the small size images.

Most of my images contain a lot of detail as they are cross stitch kits, and these tend to display very blocky or fuzzy in the small size which is not good!

The medium & large images appear perfectly OK.

Can anyone suggest a solution please?

With thanks in advance.

I definitely agree with stevensmedia that something should be done to address the unwieldiness of this thread.
Organize it into something like FAQ, fixes, etc.
For example, and this is a question for yellow1912, I see that an updated version of this mod is available for download.
However, I had already updated the file (it was published on the thread), so I don't think that an update is necessary for me.
I also use tophand's version of imagehover, but don't know if this is included in new release.
Contributor has left the forums long ago, so somebody should volunteer for a Google Group.
Hint: I'm already ducking the suggestions thrown at me.

Still unable to figure out why the hover effect is not working. I installed IH2 on another server just to see if a totally clean install would work. Just loaded the standard test products and categories.
IH2 works fine in all respects - all hover/zoom effects work.

On my development site, however, despite the fact that the templates are the same, the hover does not work. The smaller image has that little box with the x that indicates IH2 is working, and the watermark appears correctly on the larger image I get when I click on the product listing image.

But no hover/zoom, anywhere. The Configuration/Image panels are identical, so that's not the problem.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

Hello there,

This thread is losing effectiveness... it's just too big. How many times have the same support questions been asked because we can't locate the fixes in this monster thread? If we can't have a sub-forum dedicated to IH, wouldn't it be good for the mod contributor to just set up a free Google Group?

I had set up a wiki with an FAQ for IH back in May, 2006 when I was actively developing the plugin. It is free to everyone and you needn't even register. It contains just one question because I had no time to scan this thread for those answered questions back then and I have even less time nowadays. Please go ahead and use the pages in my public wiki but remember, it is for answered questions, that means, the problem must be resolved before the question is put there with it's answer. Otherwise how would you put an answer to the question?

There is a zen cart wiki, too. It even sports an area for 3rd party contributions but I believe you have to register or login. It would be a good idea to copy the information from the FAQ on breakmyzencart to the zen cart wiki once there is some valuable information there or even use the zen cart wiki right from the start. Maybe someone (or some more?) will take the time after their recurring problem is solved and post the solution there but we know all how it is: once the problem is solved, another one or some wicked deadline arises (wich we knew would arive for weeks) and we don't have time for the documentation.

Cheers,
Tim
