Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

As always we need a link to your site and SPECIFIC PAGES where you are having issues (don't make us fish through your site..)

That said specific links to your site would help us to understand specifically (versus lobbing GUESSES) what you mean by "not in the mainpage". Post a link to this page and it will be easier (and CLEARER) what the issue is..

Thank uou for you response!

Its the mainpage: /index.php?main_page=index&cPath=23_24

were all the products of a categorie are listed.
Normally with my old shop if you go over the images in that page every products image is hoovering but now its only doing that in new products side box

That looks like a sub-category listing page to me, vs. the main page (which would be the front page of your store).

At any rate, the URL is incomplete. We can't possibly locate your site from what you've provided. Please provide a complete URL beginning with http://www.

It's gonna be next to impossible to help you without seeing the site.. Some folks may not mind lobbing guess at problems, but for me with out specifics I don't like entertaining guesses.. Any way you can re-create your development store on a sub-domain so that the community can better help you troubleshoot your issue??

hello,
my additional images only display if named _1, _2
but IH2 uploads as _01 _02
what file or setting do I need to change so that _01 _02 displays instead of _1, _2
I am using IH2 2.0 rev8. with Zen Cart 1.3.9h

If this is the case, then something is wrong with your install or setup, or maybe even the images.. Links to specific pages and your image settings info would be a big help..

Okay looking at this really quick it doesn't look like IH2 is "managing" any of your images.. You need to re-read the IH2 readme and make sure you have correctly configured all of your image settings correctly (the readme has detailed guidlines with images to help make it easy to see how things should look), and you also need to make sure you have the correct permissions for your bmz_cache folder. (again see the IH2 readme for guidelines)

Next you need to change the way you have your images organized.. You currently have uploaded separate medium and large images images to the "medium" and "large" image folders. IH2 appears to ignore images when structured this way.

As has been stated many times here (and in the readme) IH2 creates the small and medium product images from your large image. Meaning you only need to upload the LARGEST of your product images to your images folder and let IH2 do the rest. My suggestion is that you remove all the small product images from the "images" folder, delete delete all the product images from your "images/medium" folder and then move all the product images (and/or the directories) in the "images/large" folder to the "images" folder.

So this path:
images/large/pandora_exclusive/bloem_LRG.jpg

becomes this path
images/pandora_exclusive/bloem_LRG.jpg

BUT

Before you do ANY OF THIS, please please please review the readme to make sure you have IH2 configured correctly..

ITS WORKING !! THank you!!

What I did:

I removed the small images , the _LRG and the _MED images. moved the _LRG images to the images folder.
uploaded the products again but then with the largest image
So it became as you told: images/pandora_exclusive/bloem_LRG.jpg

result: not working

Then i checked again the IH2 configuration: found a mistake there and put in the correction

result: not working

uploaded the products again but then with the smallest image
With FTP uploaded the _MED and _ LRG images

Then it was like before like this:

images/pandora_exclusive/bloem.jpg
images/medium/pandora_exclusive/bloem_MED.jpg
images/large/pandora_exclusive/bloem_LRG.jpg

result : WORKING!!!

I hoped that it would work like you say that you only need the largest image and that IH would do the rest.
It would save me a lot of time to make every image in 3 sizes.
But that option is not working now?

I it maybe that I have to remove the _LRG and _MED form this lines in IH configuration?:

Product Info - Image Medium Suffix _MED
Product Info - Image Large Suffix _LRG

Anyway its working so at this moment and Im happy already !

Thanks again

I looked at your site and actually IH2 is not working as it should at all..

The ONLY thing working is the on-hover image effect (and it's not working as expected on all of your small images), but IH2 is not doing it's job at all.

Again, IH2 will take the largest product image (which you should have uploaded to your "images" directory) and from this file it generates optimized small, medium and large images and put them into the IH2 bmz_cache folders.. This is not happening for your site at all..

ITS WORKING !! THank you!!

And this would not work.. Part of the issue is the way you have your images structured and NAMED... You DO NOT use a suffix in the image name. If you do IH2 will ignore the images and default Zen Cart image management will apply.

Your file: "images/pandora_exclusive/bloem_LRG.jpg" SHOULD HAVE been named "images/pandora_exclusive/bloem.jpg" (Please note there is NO suffix in the image name)

What I did:

I removed the small images , the _LRG and the _MED images. moved the _LRG images to the images folder.
uploaded the products again but then with the largest image
So it became as you told: images/pandora_exclusive/bloem_LRG.jpg

result: not working

Then i checked again the IH2 configuration: found a mistake there and put in the correction

It's actually not working at all. NONE of your images are being optimized and generated in the bmz_cache folders as they should if IH2 was doing what it's designed to do. You DO NOT NEED images in the "images/medium" or "images/large" folders. You simply create your product, add a product image (the LARGEST image) and then let IH2 do the rest. All of the optimized images (small, medium, and large) will be generated and placed into the bmz_cache folder.

uploaded the products again but then with the smallest image
With FTP uploaded the _MED and _ LRG images

Then it was like before like this:

images/pandora_exclusive/bloem.jpg
images/medium/pandora_exclusive/bloem_MED.jpg
images/large/pandora_exclusive/bloem_LRG.jpg

result : WORKING!!!

It does work EXACTLY like this if IH2 is configured correctly (settings correct, permissions set on the appropriate folders correctly, images uploaded to the correct locations (and named correctly), etc)

I hoped that it would work like you say that you only need the largest image and that IH would do the rest.
It would save me a lot of time to make every image in 3 sizes.
But that option is not working now?

No you do not need to remove this.. This setting tells Zen Cart (not IH2) how to identify your medium and large images. If you use medium or large images using these suffixes, then IH2 will ignore ALL your images and Zen Cart's default image management features will identify them as the large or medium images.. If IH2 is configured correctly you do not need to use these suffixes in your image names at all..

I'm glad you are happy, but IH2 is not doing what it's designed to do at all, and based on what I can see in your store it has EVERYTHING to do with the way you have set up your images..

I it maybe that I have to remove the _LRG and _MED form this lines in IH configuration?:

Product Info - Image Medium Suffix _MED
Product Info - Image Large Suffix _LRG

Anyway its working so at this moment and Im happy already !
