    Default Additional Image Titles [support]

    Additional Image Titles is now available in Free Addons.

    This mod allows you to add titles to product additional images on the product info page.

    Define the title text in the new file included, following examples given in the file.
    If a defined constant is found for an image, the title will be displayed.

    You can globally set the titles to display above or below the image.


    This is the result of the Adding text to additional images individually thread.

    Thank you,
    I installed the Image Titles but it's not working yet....
    I'm wondering does it matter the format of the image?
    and also does it matter the name of the image?

    Would there be a way to combine your Title addition feature onto the additional_images.php file that is included with ImageHandler2. That is, have the titles and also have Lightbox effect for the larger image?

    It would probably be possible, but I don't expect to work on that combination at this time. If anyone wants to have a crack at it, go ahead.

    Mimi - Sorry I missed seeing your question when it was new. The image format or name would not matter, as long as you created the define correctly to correspond with them. You need to make sure there are no spaces in the names.

    Default Re: Additional Image Titles support

    I would like to use Additional Image Title on this site http://peterfasano.com/zen/ but can not get it to work I had to delete the additional_image_titles_defines.php where I had some sample titles from the extra definitions folder because of getting blank pages which I thought were blank lines at the bottom of php files, but could not find....

    In additiion to having this work so that the titles appear above (or below) the additional images I need the titles to carry into Slimbox which I have installed so that in Slimbox (an addon) someone can look through the main and all the additional images and know what they are looking at...

    I am using the additional images for the various different colors that each product comes in and it is important to have the exact color and code appearing whenever anyone is looking at an image.

    So, I have two issues - one is to get the Additional IMage Titles working and two is to get the Additional Image Titles into Slimbox Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.

    I forgot to add in the post i just made --- a question - does the Additional Image Titles add on work with Image Handler.... I am looking at this and I asked a fellow web developer to look at it also and we both think that there is some type of conflict that is causing the Additional Image Titles not to work?

    I would need to see what your additional image names are and what constant names you have used in the defines.
    When looking through the prints, I don't see any additional images to use as examples of naming.

    BTW, I noticed that while paging through the products, every new page shows only the header/nav and it is necessary to scroll down to see any of the product image. This seems like poor ergonomics - you want to make it as comfortable as possible for customers to leaf through the patterns. You might consider an alternate product page header configuration that takes less height. The header design is beautiful, but function has to come first.


    IH2 could indeed be causing a problem, since it renames the resized files into long strings and saves them in a separate cache. I think it's not so much a conflict as bypassing systems that don't work together.

    The lightbox/slimbox mods probably do conflict, as in trying to modify the same files to do their job.

    Just noticed in loosefast's post that IH2 does have an additional_images.php file, so this would preclude simply loading the Additional Image Titles copy. The titles code is short, and may be able to be dropped into the other mods' versions of the file... unless they modify the same area of the file, which would make it tricky.

    For an example, under Fabrics, in Prints, there are two test products I set up with additional images - Avondale and Key Biscayne. The direct link for Avondale is http://peterfasano.com/zen/index.php...products_id=17

    For avondale, I uploaded avondale.jpg as the main image and then
    avondale_01.jpg, avondale_02.jpg ..... to avondale_05.jpg as the additional images

    Then in additional_image_titles_define.php I put the following:

    define ('ADDIMG_avondale_01_jpg','Avondale Cedar');
    define ('ADDIMG_avondale_02_jpg','Avondale Cypress');
    define ('ADDIMG_avondale_03_jpg','Avondale Dune');
    define ('ADDIMG_avondale_04_jpg','Avondale Heather');
    define ('ADDIMG_avondale_05_jpg','Avondale Heron');

    I followed the uploading instructions for Additional Image Titles AddOn but immediately was unable to access the site because of blank pages, I checked all the php I had just uploaded for blank lines at the bootm, there are none, I had to delete additional_image_titles_define.php from the server to get the site appearing again....

    Now I see that the image link for the avondale additional image shows as:

    <img src="bmz_cache/3/39600fa8926b9993799b2a562959d941.image.150x170.jpg" alt="Avondale" title=" Avondale " width="150" height="170" />

    instead of avondale_01.jpg its 39600fa8926b9993799b2a562959d941.image.150x170.jpg

    Do you think this is image handler conflicting and interfering.... I'm going to go now and see if I can uninstall Image Handler....


    Not only do I want and need to have the Additional Image Titles working, but I need to have them carry into Slimbox...


    Also, thank you for your coments about the header, I have thought about that, I am hoping, maybe you can tell me -----I am now using the Smart Background addon for the header and I see that you - Glenn- wrote this also .... Thank you for these great addons, you see that they are useful, they are the very ones I am using here.... My question is and I was about to try this out With Smart Backgrounds for Headers can I have headers with different heights specified for different pages?

    PHP constants are typically written in uppercase, so the code looks for an uppercase version of the filename, as well as converting characters like / into _ so they don't break the constant name. So

    define ('ADDIMG_avondale_01_jpg','Avondale Cedar');

    would be

    define ('ADDIMG_AVONDALE_01_JPG','Avondale Cedar');

    except that the IH2 filename may be making this irrelevant.


    Smart Backgrounds lets you specify the styling for the element in a particular page/category, so you should be able to set the height that way. It may take some reconfiguring of your header output, or it might be straightforward - can't tell without looking into it.
