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

[nigelt74]

ummmm how to make image handler disable popup on hover and replace it with zoom on hover? popup on hover is blocked by most browser @.@

Huh, no idea what you are on about

post a link to the effected page

are you meaning

1) on the product information page where you click the link for larger image pop-up or
2) the category listing pages where the larger image appears automatically on hover.

What exactly didn't work? normally there will be an error message

and again is there anything in the
/cache folder
as this is where a lot of errors are stored

The images wont work, that´s what I meant.

I tried to upload a medium image. And the cach-folder now created 0,1,3,7,c,e,f -folders with the image I uploaded but in different sizes. But the images still wont show on my webstore =/

1) I want to know about the /cache folder, not the /bmz_cache folder, as the /cache folder is where php error messages are stored and hopefully there will be error messages in there regarding this problem

Okay

Now regarding the /bmz_cache folder,

from what you have said

i am assuming the following
Images are being created in the bmz_cache folders, and are visible when viewed via your hosting control panel, BUT the image can't be viewed when you try to view them on the site OR via a direct link in the browser?

Try this
try deleting the .htaccess file out of the bmz_cache and see if that makes a difference,

If it does make a difference, copy the ,htaccess file out of images into the bmz_cache (the 2 files are identical, but for some bizarre reason this has fixed some peoples problems)

on the product information page ^^
i'd like to change it into zoom mode when we hover the image
i think it's better than popup but i don't know how to do it >.<

There is alot of files in there.

No. The image could not be viewed from admin control panel eather.

Try this
try deleting the .htaccess file out of the bmz_cache and see if that makes a difference,

If it does make a difference, copy the ,htaccess file out of images into the bmz_cache (the 2 files are identical, but for some bizarre reason this has fixed some peoples problems)

This worked. I can now see all my pictures in admin and on the webstore. Thank you so mutch!

thank you nigel for the help. I went back to IH2 support forum, did some searches, but came up dry. That thread is really long! Still no luck getting my images to work properly.

[davalf]

Nigel, you say the .bmp's are not being handled by IH, is that why in the source it shows <img src="images/2.5x6.bmp" and for the .jpg it shows like you stated earlier "><img src="bmz_cachecc6a1bd6a8e4647b323b723816f16e890.image.100x78.jpg

But, I uploaded the .bmp through handler? Thank you again for the help.

Like Nigel, I am not exactly clear on what it is you are asking either..

but IF you are asking about replacing the large image popup (the one which brings up the large product image in a popup window when you click on the "Larger Image" link underneath the medium image)

THEN...

You apparently missed the LONG detailed explanation in the...

--yep you guessed it--

in the IH3 README regarding hover on medium images and WHY this feature is not included in IH3 and WHY it won't be included anytime soon. It also includes instructions for implementing medium image hover with a TON of caveats for using that method because the method used creates a host of other issues.. I will not re-post all of this here.. it's ALL in the readme..

Diva- do you have any idea what would cause the forward slashes / to be removed from here: img src="bmz_cachecc6a1bd6a8e4647b323b723816f16e890.image.100x78.jpg

Off the top of my head no..
