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

[hara]

I think I found the problem. IH3 requires must add/upload the small image first, then the option either large or medium. And still need to follow ZC original rule to add _MED and _LRG for the option images.
Am I right?

using IH3 I upload 1 image.

myimage.jpg which is say (500px x 500px)

IH3 will now handle creating the small and medium images for me.
small images (125px x 125px) medium images (250px x 250 px)

no need to add any _MED or _LRG options at all.

If I want an additional image for that product I use IH3 to upload an image and IH3 creates myimage_01.jpg for me.

Yes, I understand. My point is I have to upload an image on Default image file box first when I want additional image. If you upload additional image on the option box first, the error appear. Moreover, I try to add 2nd additional image but it looks like replacing the first additional image. (only myimage_01.jpg alone, myimage_02.jpg not appear). Only one additional image appear. So far I can't find where to setup from.

ok you are right in doing it that way.

you DO NOT add the additional image in the same button that you did the main image.

This is the way I do mine since occasionally I forgot and took out my main image also

If you upload to the main images folder (server/store folder/images (where included in located)

1. if more that one image is for the the product then create them all prior to uploading to the server.

product = red hot textures

primary image name= redhot.jpg
additional images= redhot_01.jpg and so forth until you have them all named with numbers

2. upload to the server

3. in product description area of admin go to the bottom where you would have normally entered the image....in the "Or, select an existing image file from server, filename:"

then choose from the drop down menu "main directory"

in the box next to filename: write the name of the main image... redhot.jpg

3. click preview

on the next page if it shows up then click update...if there is a problem then hit the back button to fix.


or if you use the images area of IH3:

after you enter the first image then click on the "new file button to navigate to the second image for that product

using the "new file" button for each new image for that product. IH3 will do the renaming on its own and wll show you each image.

If you click the edit then you will remove the one you added and replace with the next one.

I hope that makes sense
