Image Handler 3 Support Thread (for ZC v1.3.9)

[mek113]

I know I'll get some grief over saying this, but it would have been appreciated if a notice had been posted in the Software Add-ons that IH 3 is not compatible with ZenCart 1.5. I had used this add-on for an earlier shopping cart (prior to 1.5 upgrade) and checked the add-on section to see if there was any newer version or issues with compatibility to 1.5. Seeing none, I went ahead and installed it and now it doesn't work and I'll need to back out the files.

I will be subscribing to this forum now to get notice of new update. Had no reason to before.

But the add-on is named Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x and it is stated that it is compatible with Zen Cart™ Version: v1.3.9.

Isn't that enough?

The name of the mod in the Software Add-ons section is "Image Handler 3 for v1.3.x" which should serve as a notice that it is only good for 1.3.x versions of Zen-Cart. Additionally, under the Z.C. Version heading, it says 1.3.9h, so this would be another indication that it is not compatible with 1.5.0.

Adding to what the others have said, there is also a support thread which lists the mods which have been confirmed to work with and/or have been updated for 150 compatibility. It is the responsibility of all users to do their homework before installing any addon to their cart. A search of the forum or this thread (or even a closer look at the IH3 addon description) would have saved you the time and grief of an unnecessary install/uninstall.

Yes you certainly did get some grief now didn't you..

Adding to what everyone else has stated there's been MORE THAN ENOUGH published information, file naming, mod naming, support thread information, and general talking going on to have informed you that IH3 is NOT compatible with Zen Cart v1.5.

I had used this add-on for an earlier shopping cart (prior to 1.5 upgrade) and checked the add-on section to see if there was any newer version or issues with compatibility to 1.5. Seeing none, I went ahead and installed it and now it doesn't work and I'll need to back out the files.

tsk tsk tsk.. the reason for the version numbers with the add-ons is to give you an indication as to what version of Zen Cart it works with. While some add-ons required little to no changes to be compatible, Image Handler is not the kind of add-on IMHO that you would want to assume was one of those add-ons that required no modification to be compatible.

PLUS as ScriptJunkuie pointed out, you should research and review your add-ons to ensure compatibility before upgrading. The support threads are one source, but there is an entire upgrade topic that is another good source. Bottomline is DON'T ASSUME..

Great idea..

We're on the home stretch. Readme file is being reworked and updated. Then one last pass to QA final package. This weekend is looking good for a submission to the downloads section.

Also quick note please stay tuned here for updates. We post all updates HERE. I can't respond to PMs asking for personal updates on the status.. (sorry...)

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Need a hand? I have a new installation with only 3 test products setup. No big loss if it blows up.
