No worries Clark.
If you need a stripped down version without the features, feel free to give me a shout & I'll zip it up for you.

The features are nice, but for the site i'm working on right now, I wanted to have the sideboxes static (Trying to Keep It Simple). Also the collapse feature was not working correctly with a hacked up sidebox that I have. This is because the sidebox is not created properly (it was nothing to do with the collapse feature itself) I'm currently working on fixing the sidebox.

Love this but can't get the lightbox to work with Image Hander.

Any idea how to make this work?

I presume you mean on the product_info pages? If so, it should be easy enough, I'll have a look later and post a solution for you.

yes the product_info pages, what seems to be the problem is its pointing to /images/large/5006020804f_LRG.jpg but it needs to be /images/5006020804f.jpg, I been trying to find where to change it but getting no where,
I will try to leave it there for a while so you can see http://bgwatches.co.uk/index.php?mai...&products_id=1
but I am working on the site at the moment so it may change.
Thanks for the help.

It will be another few hours before I can take a proper look, so I will post a fix then. I see you also need it for the extra product images, I'll post a fix for that as well.

Hi Alray10,
I just had a quick look and ImageHandler seems to work perfectly with the template without any modifications.
What issues are you having?

alray, what is your small image size set to in Admin>Configuration>Images? IH will ONLY zoom on the small image, using the product info image settings for the zoomed image.

Try setting your small images to 100 X 100, and your product info image sizes to 250 X 250. See if it will zoom in on 'em then.

Hope this helps.


Also, my apologies to Ant. I wasn't trying to change the thread topic, just resolve this issue, because I really don't think it's anything wrong with the template. I think it's just the image sizing that's the issue, as 90% of the time when IH shows the images, but won't zoom, that's the problem.

No need to apologise, good to see someone jump in with help & advice.
I hadn't played around with image handler much before today so was unsure of how to get it working with my jQuery themes at the start but didn't find any real issues.
I have it working on a new jQuery template here, http://zencart-jquery.com/zj-black
The only thing I don't like is the way ImageHandler names the images, I'd prefer them to be named with the product titles for SEO reasons, I might look into a solution to do this in the next week or two.
That template will be released as soon as jQuery UI comes out of beta next week.

I don't use image handle to zoom and don't like the way it does it, I use it because I have a lot of products with more than one image and its the easiest way to handle them.
Resizing the images does not help with the lightbox not working.
Thanks but you misunderstood what I am trying to working.

Yep. You're absolutely right. I re-read your post, and I DID misunderstand. I could have SWORE it said you couldn't get IH to work, AND when I went to your site, your images have the "plus" icon in the corner, but wouldn't zoom. Uhhhh.........my bad. Forgive me???
