Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

when you copy paste the coding into the sql installer make sure you get everything.

make sure you have the right prefix--if any

if it doen't work in admin then use phpmyadmin

Thanks DarkAngel

That did the trick. I was a little squeamish about entering directly into phpmyadmin input box, but I'm over it now. LOL

Your examples showed where to add the prefix, but how does one know where a pre-fix is needed if an sql file doesn't have them and I need to do that through phpmyadmin again?

[DarkAngel]

LOL, good question

usually if you are the one that installed it to begin with then you will know what, if any, prefix you added to the database you created.

If another persone installs it then chances are they have access to your database or server files via c-panel?? and you can get the information from them otherwise just take a peek at the configuration file (includes/configuration.php) for the store and it will be listed towards the bottom.

That is why any software you install you want to do all possible to also install the security updates for a hacker can get to this file, and get access to your stuff..

1. first open the zip
2. go to your server files
3. double check to see that all files are uploaded to the correct placed---remember the best way is to reupload them to overwrite the ones you first did, just in case one or two got corrupted when you did it the first time.

make sure the folders that are marked as your_template --- those items in there need to go into the same sub folders in the template you are using. If you do not have that folder in any area it says then create one, using the exact same name as your template you are using.

does the settings show in the configuration/lightbox area?

sis you have any errors when you installed the sql?

can you clarify something for me.

When it says:
Rename the following folders to match your template folder name.

includes\languages\english\extra_definitions\YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER
includes\modules\YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER
includes\templates\YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER

Does that mean to change it to:
includes\templates\templates
OR
includes\templates\ri007 ri007(being to folder that is my template and holds my template)

The setting do show up in the Configuration/lightbox area and i can edit them.

There were also no errors when I ran the sql.

yes includes\templates\ri007 is what i mean. anytime you find either your_template or custom then that is what you do...drop the items into the folder that houses your template you are using for the store.

and make additional ri007 folders in anyother spot that the zips indicate there should be one.
