Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[DivaVocals]

The post may be 5 years old, but the screenshot is less than 15 minutes old. This is the latest version of this module. If I haven't made it clear in the previous two posts. I want to override the default image size of 250x250 and have a larger image size.

And as has been pointed out by niestudio and DarkAngel, in order for the image to display at a size larger than 250x250, the image you upload must be larger than these dimensions. ZLB will not enlarge your images.

nine hours...that is what i spent researching this problem IN THIS THREAD and in testing. and is not because i assumed it was the mod, but my own error and I don't have that kind of time. I'm not paid for this.

I feel your frustration, and I understand it because I've been there myself. Pretty much everyone in the community has been there. But you need to understand a few things my dear.

1. Nobody is paid for this. All of the people who have built zen cart, all of the people who have built the mods, all of the people who support the mods whether or not the mod is their's to support....nobody makes a dime. It's called open-source.
2. One of the frustrations of open source software is that there is often a learning curve and a whole lot of DIY. However, this is also one of its greatest blessings, because you learn as you go - and nobody was ever harmed by learning something new.
3. If you had to pay for zen cart software, you could count on paying at least a few hundred bucks. Then add anywhere from 15-150 per mod, depending on complexity, and you could easily spend thousands. My site would likely have cost me 1500 bucks or more, plus labor - if not for zen cart and the kind people in the zen cart community.

You have to balance out the time you spend with the money you spend. Want it free? Spend a lot of time. Want it fast? Spend a lot of money.

You just can't have it both ways chica, and a little gratitude goes a long way when people are providing free software and free support

I know it probably sounds like I'm chewing you out, but I'm not. Just trying to help you avoid making the same mistake that so many folks who are new to zen cart make: getting testy on the forum because they're frustrated and then having their requests for help ignored because nobody wants to help someone with an attitude.

So let's be friends and not get into a pi$$ing match over it

that is not me you are talking about...but this is someone with a problem: attacking someone who is doing their best to communicate their processes to help benefit the community and assuming they are just wasting everyone's time but their own. your assumptions were cruel and unjustified of someone who has posted as many pleas for help as you have. You feel my frustration...right.

OWN IT.

I've just downloaded Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 and under this new browser, Lightbox doesn't seem to work.
Have anybody else noticed this ?

no idea this was happening goo you brought it up and if you are using image handler also then go to its support thread becasue there is a fix there for it...has to do with the .js file it has.

Nigels new JS fixes the on-hover function in IH2.. Would not fix IE9 issues with ZLB..The fix for ZLB likely requires fixes to ZLBs own JS files..

I think its the same problem as chrome and FF4, your ZLB site is not working in those browsers either.
try backing up and update to ZLB 1.6

Hi everyone,

I'm running zencart version 1.3.9h and I was using lightbox version 1.5 then I upgraded to version 1.6 and the EZ-Pages stopped showing me the lightbox effect on photos and images I would like to show a larger view of.

Did everything by the book, added the jscript_zen_lightbox to the appropriate folder but no lightbox display.

Any help would be appreciated.
