Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[Danielle]

This mod is not working with my template for some reason. I have spent hours trying to figure out why! If I switch to classic template it works perfectly. I have used WinMerge to compare the mod files and the template files and just don't see where the issue is. However, if I view the id and class details using FF developer tools, I can see that the lightbox css is not showing up for some reason. The lightbox css file is in the correct place. It seems like the file includes/classes/zen_lightbox/slimbox.php is not being called for some reason. I am using a purchased template and am just not sure where to go to make the template use the slimbox.php file for images...

I really appreciate any help!

TIA!

make sure you have uploaded all the files correctly...especially the ones that are labeled as YOUR-TEMPLATE-FOLDER

those need to go into your template that you are using for your store.

@pink leopard:

yes it will work just remember to merge any files that are shared by voth the store and any other addon you have installed and of course lightbox

Yes, I've checked and double-checked and all of the files are in their correct spots. It's something that has been customized in the template that is causing the issue. When I look at the css on the product page, I can see the lightbox css in the css file, but when I view the id and class details for the image itself, the lightbox classes and ids aren't there.

Ah finally found it! It was a bit of javascript that was hard-coded into the tpl_main_page.php file. The lightbox now works, but there are no close, previous, or next buttons.

It was a template that my client purchased somewhere. I got the buttons to show up using a fix posted a few pages back in this thread :) It's all working great now!
