Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[GearStudios]

Either of those might be my problem - but I can't find where to turn off the resizing option in IH2! I've been to configure, but just can't see it.

Can't wait for the updated version with IH2 support :)

The way I am using the two is I am letting IH2 create my thumbnails. Then I have lightbox pulling the original large image for the blow up. So IH2 isn't creating the enlarged image on the fly. Plus I had to modify it to work with 1.2.7. But that was easy. Only had to modify a couple places.

Hi Alex,

I just installed your lightbox on a zen cart 1.3.5 (without IH2). I found it working on other websites linked in this forum, and was amazed. Really nice work!

Unfortunately it didn't work on my site. After testing around I found out, that it depends on product type. All my articles are of document_product, because these are ads, and there's no shipping. If I create a new item as "Product General", it just works fine.

I've tried to find anything in the scripts that looks like "product type" or something, but there seems to be nothing like that.

So Alex or anyone else: Have you an idea, where the difference might be?

Keep up the good work!!!

I had the same problem, all you need to do is copy jscript_lightbox.php from
zen_lightbox_1.2.rar_FILES/includes/modules/pages/product_info
into includes/modules/pages/documemt_product_info/ or any other product type you wish to use the lightbox with.
Hope this helps.

I think what Lala_G_Clef_Jewelry mentioned points to the problem. Light Box seems to read large sized images from the images/large folder. IH2 places large (and other) images in the weird bmz_cache folder using a filing system I'm not too familiar with.

Unless either Light Box can take images from the IH2 folders, or unless IH2 can place large images in the images/large folder, I don't know that these two would be able to work together.

Don't worry people... I'm not dead! (just really busy with work at the moment).

I've been working on adding support for IH2 and feel that I need to rebuild the contribution from the ground up using different core jscript files to create the 'lightbox'.

This shouldn't take too long and I'll try and get something uploaded before next week.

After fiddling around for hours with code and reading 115 posts I found my answer. Thanks Springfield

Ah this is wonderful I was just about to start building a lightbox plug to my site and here we go.. thanks for you guys making it happen.

Anyway wanted to ask from gearstudios or whomever how to get this working with 1.2.7 I'm not using ih at all.

many thanks
