Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[DarkAngel]

Already check the template folders and everything is put into the right place. Thanks.

did it work until you installed another addon or updated the store software or, what did you do just before it decided not to work.

list any mods you have installed please and store version

thanks

Running 1.3.8a under PHP 5.3.9
Recently remove the WordPress on Zen-Cart, and change the main page featured product width.
Good news is that if I change to classic theme, the zen lightbox works again. Think there's some override issue. Probably I should re-install the theme.

mods installed: easy populate, ultimate seo, links manager, rss feed, blank side box etc

with mods installed we need to be sure that there is no file in a new (former) mod that is with the same name as another. when I updated to 1.3.9 I had to go through all the mods to make sure that I did not overwrite one with the new files too. I use a macintosh so i have text wrangler for merging the codes into a copuy of the new file.

do the other mods still work? Glad you got rid of wordpress I hear that it is very easy to get hacked...never used it so have no clue if rumor or not.

what template are you using?

After trial and error, there's conflict with the link manager sidebox. Will try to upgrade it and see if it works out. Thanks for the help.

I don't know if this has been answered or not, but I couldn't find an answer anywhere.
The "PREV" and "NEXT" buttons on the Lightbox pop-up window doesn't show up, only when I hover over them do they show up.

I found another tread with another user who had the same problem but no answer was given that I could find.

The stylesheet_zen_lightbox.css file is installed in my CSS folder, all of the other Lightbox files seem like they are where they belong. I checked , rechecked and double checked all the files.

Does anyone know how I might correct this problem?

Thank you in advance.

I am using:

Zen cart - v1.3.8a
Zen lightbox - v1.5

I'm installing Zen Lightbox v1.5 on test site 1.3.9d. Didn't install IH2.

On tpl_modules_main_product_image.php I've got two instances of:
. addslashes(TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE) . in my existing file that are shown as" . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . in the mod file.

Both files appear to work. I'm not sure where the addslashes came from in my existing file, copied from custom template in livesite. I have same lightbox on livesite zc 1.3.8a also with IH2

I don't see the addslashes in Lightbox files, or any zc clean files.

Anyone know what gives?

You can see what I mean on the website I made http://www.prioritypetproducts.com

This is driving my nuts.

@capecodjoe

what other add ons do you have installed?

I ask cause I have IH2 and lightbox installed and the store works perfectly BUT

I just tried installing the addon to show --on the product info page--when the date of the sale is to end and it works but all my additional images from IH2 disappeared...more on that will be in the proper forum...lol

sometimes they do not play nice together

anyway try reuploading the tpl_modules_main_product_image.php

which goes to includes/templates/your template folder/tpl_modules_main_product_image.php

see if that helps

I ended up making a work around that worked for me. I do have other add on's and it seems like it had nothing to do with the Image Handler 2, as far as I can tell it had a lot to do with Fual Slimbox. I just didn't understand why it was happening since I had already uninstall Fual Slimbox but the Prev and Next buttons was still not showing up in the Lightbox image.
Any way my fix is not pretty but it worked for me.

This is what I did:, (oh, the website I made is not a separate template but a combination of added modules and a lot of file editing of the default template that came with Zen Cart, so I don't know if this fix will work for everyone).

1. I made a new folder called called zen_lightbox and placed it here: includes/templates/classic/zen_lightbox
2. Inside the zen_lightbox folder I added the images that came with the Zen Lightbox addon. They were nextlabel.gif and prevlabel.gif.
3.Inside my css folder located at includes/templates/classic/css there was a file from the Fual Slimbox addon named stylesheet_slimbox_ex.css. Open this file up and add the following code:


#lbNextLink {
right: 0;
display: block;
width: 40px;
background: url(../images/zen_lightbox/nextlabel.gif) no-repeat right;
background-image: url(../images/zen_lightbox/nextlabel.gif)no-repeat right;
padding_left:40px;
margin-left:40px;
}


#lbPrevLink {
right: 0;
display: block;
width: 40px;
background: url(../images/zen_lightbox/prevlabel.gif) no-repeat left;
background-image: url(../images/zen_lightbox/prevlabel.gif)no-repeat left;
padding_left:40px;
margin-left:40px;
}





That's it, I refreshed my browser tested Lightbox out and it worked. Basically what I did was made the prev and next buttons show up on top of whatever div was blocking the other prev and next buttons from showing up.

I tried to explained this the best I could and I hope this will help those with a similar issue with Lightbox

@capecodjoe

you did a great job, it works like it should and appears like it should too.
