Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[soxophoneplayer]

You're welcome ! Let me know if you find something interresting about .htaccess management in this case...

I got a response from Dr Byte about this:

Yes, you're creating a security risk by allowing php files in /includes/.htaccess

I guess if push comes to shove I can just reinstall Lightbox 1.5, but I'll fiddle some more with 1.6 for a while first.

Thanks for your response ! Maybe later I wil try another way to do the same result without .htaccess issue...

Yes old files removed, sql update installed, new files put in or merged.

Images are in main store and my_temp/images; also in my_template/buttons/english/ and my_template/buttons/french which is how I got it to work within lightbox 1.5. The french buttons have the same filenames as the english buttons, but are located in the french folder and the actual graphics of the buttons are in french. I can't do this in the main store/images or my_template/images since english and french filenames are identical.

In the Lightbox 1.6.2 install, I AM getting the 'quantity of images' showing up in french with my minor substitution of 'de' for 'of' - so I know the copy of includes/languages/french/extra_definitions/my_template/zen_lightbox.php is indeed being accessed when a visitor has selected french language but the 'next' 'previous' and 'close' buttons being called up are from the english folder (or the main or my_template folders).

So I guess I'm trying to figure out how to call the graphic files from buttons/french/ when extra_denfinitions/french is in play.

I'm groping in the dark here, and wondering why this worked in 1.5 simply by adding the buttons/french ;o)

Hi Soxophoneplayer,
can you attach your french graphics for me.
I'll play around with it and see where they need to be added.
In ZLB 1.6.2 there are 2 places where the prev/next images live.
[images/zen_lightbox] & [includes/templates/your-template-folder/images/zen_lightbox]
I had to add this for the "Always show prev/next" feature that some users requested.

Hi Soxophoneplayer,
Here are the mods you'll need.
1.
As stated earlier you must load your french images to [images/zen_lightbox] & [includes/templates/your-template-folder/images/zen_lightbox]

Now, since your images are NOT the same size as the originals, you need to make some minor tweaks to the css.

2.
edit [includes/classes/zen_lightbox/autoload_default.php]

replace the echo statement at the bottom with this:

echo '<style> #lbPrevLink, #lbNextLink {display: block; position: absolute; top: 0; height:33px!important; outline: none;} #lbNextLink {right: 0; width: 87px; background: transparent url(images/zen_lightbox/nextlabel.gif) no-repeat 100% 15%;} #lbPrevLink {left: 0; width: 106px; background: transparent url(images/zen_lightbox/prevlabel.gif) no-repeat 0 15%; } </style>'; 

3.
next edit [includes/templates/your-template/css/stylesheet_zen_lightbox.css]
modify the #lbCloseLink tag width and height to

width: 89px; height: 33px;

These three mods should load french buttons for you.

Hi Soxophoneplayer,
I was looking back at your OP and realized that you are not trying to use french as the default, but rather be able to use that switch on your site.
The fix I just gave you want to switch to french all the time.
I'll try to look into what happened with the switch from 1.5 to 1.6

the file listed in your warning is not a file that ZLB modifies.
I googled that warning and there are several forum posts related, maybe one of them will help

Thanks Daniel.

I managed to track the issue down to missing some files from my admin/includes folder.

For some reason application_bottom.php, application_top.php, autoload_func.php and my .htaccess files were missing ...

Attempting an other install of ZLB now ...
