Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[Jay76]

tried installing this again, no luck. Does not work!

there is a php file included in the download files that is outside the includes folder...where the hell does that go as there is nothing in the instructions that mention this file?

Is there anyone that can help with this please ??

[DarkAngel]

the read me tels you that the loose file is for adding to some folders.

when you installed it did you make certain you installed the files from the folders in the zip to the exact same folders in the server?

a link would be really helpful too but if you let me see i might be able to help

Darkangel.... unsure where you gone?

I have installed the faul slimbox version with no probs, uploaded the sql file and this uploaded as it should rather then a 404 page error on this version?


The only thing I need to do now is work out how to add additional images or a gallery of images so customer can click next / previous etc.

After a few trials I've managed to install the SQL patch correctly and also installed all the files in the right folders. However, when I click on any photo on my site I only get a white window and has to reload the page to get rid of it.
What have I done wrong ?
My site is www.PUREchocolatetruffles.co.uk.
Any help would be very welcome. Thanks.

I found the error. Had to delete remains from a mootools_on_product_info installation. Sorry to have bothered you.

For all those with jquery issues......mootools has a dollar safe mode now http://mootools.net/blog/2009/06/22/...lar-safe-mode/

question...

I use a updated version of Slimbox 1.7 so I could use it with a higher version of Mootools.... is there a desire to have this mod upgraded to Slimbox 1.7?

Next, Slimbox 2.0 use the jQuery 1.3 or higher library, is there a need for this one as will?

Both are easy to setup in the current Zen Lightbox mod.

Just wanted to ask before spending the time on it, the longest amount of time would be setting up the install instructions...

I would very much appreciate if you can instruct me on how to upgrade lightbox to use slimbox 2.0. Jquery and MooTools is not working correctly together.

Slimbox 1.67 is what's in zen lightbox which uses mootools library. If your site is using jquary library, the two don't mix well. I think there was a walk around back some posts.... not sure why. Best answer is to upgrade Slimbox to version 2.0 which makes use of the jquary library instead of Mootools.

I just wanted to confirm that it is a jquery conflict. I removed the jquery libraries from my template and it zen lightbox started working instantly. I'm having trouble applying the suggestion to use slimbox 2.0...what files do I need to replace?

thanks
