Problem Solved...

I didn't realize I had to take the gif images out of the images/zen_lightbox folder before I installed them onto my server.

Actually, I didn't solve my problem. I was able to see the rotating circle as well as the close button for one image but then they disappeared again. Same issue as above. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Brad

It's me again. I solved my problem again by copying the zen_lightbox directory to includes\templates\custom\images\ [B]and[\B] by putting the gif imagesin that same directory inside includes\templates\custom\images\ separately. Is this necessary?

You'll need to rename two folders within the 'includes' folder (from the zip file).

Then you should upload all the files within the 'includes' folder to your website (keeping the file structure the same).

Did you follow the instructions in the readme file?

If someone still has problems with ZenCart 1.3.7.1, ImageHandler 2.0 and Zen Lightbox 1.4 here is what i did to fix it:

locate the file "additional_images.php" it should be in your includes\modules\"template_name_dir".

Go to line 23 and remove the ". '$'".
The line should look now like this:
$products_image_base = str_replace($products_image_extension , '', $products_image);

Thats it. Hope it helps others.

Thanks for posting this find Climax. I'll review the code change for the 1.5 release.

If anyone wants an easy way to remove 1.3 prior to installing 1.4 and have shell access, make the needed changes and run this from the root of your zen folder:
