Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[rvagrrl]

I've searched for hours and have tried innumerable fixes, so figured I'd go ahead and post here.

I'm running 1.3.6 with IH2 and Lightbox 1.3. So far, I've tried the site on four different hosting situations and it works on two of them (my business VPS on A Small Orange and my personal hosting account on HostMonster), but can't get it to work on my client's hosting (first HostGator and then HostMonster since it worked on my HM account).

It's a photography site, so I've rigged Lightbox to work as a sort of gallery. Except, the page stops loading as soon as it tries to load the additional images, both on the site and in the IH admin. I'm totally at my wit's end trying to figure out what's going on. I have no idea why it would work just fine on two different hosting environments and then not on two others.

Anyway, here's where it's NOT working (click the gallery links):

Here's where it's working just fine:

I'm sure I'm forgetting to give some crucial information. =/

Any hints or tips would be amazing. Thank you!

excellent Design
Listen I think ( I am not a designer nor a programmer) you have an issue as stated before with additional_pictures.php
The same issue I had before. Is just one file is messing up.
back up and try to upload that file. The patch is the one I pointed out before in this thread. Like I said as soon I 'd overwritten this file all additional images popped up like pop corn

Thanks so much! Unfortunately, I've tried that file and I've tried all of the additional_images.php fixes that I've seen so far (on the default Zen file, the file that comes with the mod and the patched file). Nothing has seemed to help. =(

I just downloaded zen light box and all seems well.
I found it in admin/configuration but the images load just like they used to. Do I have to do something else to make it work?
Thanks

Hi peggy,

just an idea, did you also uploaded the images and jscript folders from template_default to YOUR_TEMPLATE?

regards,

Thank you for pointing that out to me.

I only changed the name of the includes\modules\YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER and not the includes\templates\YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER and it works fine now.
Somehow I missread it

Thanks a lot

hi there im a complete newbie using zencart, i just installed this addon which is excellent but i have a problem

i have added additional pics in the format like this
abc.jpg
abc_01.jpg
abc_01.jpg
....
....

now when i clicked the main pic it display in lightbox no problem, it shows that its the 1 of 7 pics, and all next, close, etc buttons, but when i click next to view the 2nd pic, it shows the loading icon but doesnt go to the 2nd pic at all. if i click direct on the additional pic instead of the main one, lightbox comes up but doesnt show pic at all. what have i done wrong or need doing? i have rename template name and followed the instruction already, thanks very much for your help

I've got lightbox and imagehandler2 installed and I'm trying to make some changes that will allow me to have two different links under the main picture, each link would load a different size of popup.

So clicking the pic or 'larger image' would popup at say 500x500 and clicking 'supersize' would cause the popup to activate at say 1000x1000.

I had hoped that changing the values of large image height/width in tpl_modules_main_product_image:

document.write(\'<a href="' . zen_lightbox($products_image_large, addslashes($products_name), LARGE_IMAGE_WIDTH, LARGE_IMAGE_HEIGHT)

would have done the trick but no luck, does anyone have any suggestions.
