Image Handler 4 (for v1.5.x) Support Thread

nevermind....figured it out....smh

I have IH4 installed on my cart and working perfectly - AMAZING addon, it saves SO, SO much time with my images!

The only problem I've noticed (maybe it's a bug?) is with my 'reviews' sidebox. I have mine on the right column. All of my IH4 hover images pop up to the right. When I hover over my 'reviews' sidebox image, it tries to pop up to the right but hits the edge of the screen, and then pops to the left. Sometimes it shows two images on hover at the same time. It then has a 'ghost' effect where it leaves an imprint of the image on the screen until I scroll past it, or use other pop up hover images that cover it and wipe it out (if that makes sense).

This ONLY happens with my reviews sidebox on the right column.

I am testing this in Google Chrome. I have the current version of zen cart.

You can see my page here: http://meljensdesigns2.com - it's a test site until I have everything running.

It's interesting to see that someone else experiences what I did until recently.

I had the right column turned off on my index (main) page and the new items rows were displayed in the space of the middle and right columns. There were four thumbnails per row and, when I hovered over the rightmost image in any row, I had the same effect as that described by meljen: Hovering on the right side of the image caused the medium size image to appear, then, if the mouse cursor was moved slowly to the left of the same thumbnail, a second medium image appeared to the left of the first and remained there. If I hovered over another thumbnail, this extra "ghost" image remained there and did not go away until I scrolled up or down the screen so as to move its thumbnail outside the screen.

This only happened with Chrome and I thought it was something wrong with my setup. I turned on the right column again, meaning that the new items are now not very close to the right side of the template and the issue disappeared. It wasn't a "big" issue but annoying nevertheless.

I visited meljel's site and saw what the issue is. Perhaps this is something that could be investigated by the developing team and, in my humble opinion, it has to do with the Google Chrome rather than with IH.

Thank you for replying, I am relieved to hear that I am not the only one that has experienced this.

I double-checked in Firefox. It does not happen there. Instead, an image pops up to the left or right when hovering over an image to the far right of the screen. So it self-corrects there. I'm glad to see that.

I do hope that it might get fixed for chrome, but I agree... it might just be a browser issue that can't be addressed.

If it's the configure.php file it's a Zen Cart setup issue and NOT related specifically to IH4.. Your configure.php files are found in the "includes" folder.. The extra slash would tend to indicate that you have a slash in your configure file that doesn't belong..

I am having the same problem, IH4 won't allow me to see the image on the admin page. Could someone tell me what the line looks like that might have the 2 //'s. I would like to edit it out. I have been working with IH4 and those broken images. It still works fine, but it would be nice to see the images as I work. Thanks for your help.

@meljen
It is stranger than that in that I don't see what you are seeing on Chrome on linux. So, it is even more specific a problem than just being a Chrome thing. I would guess that it is something to do with how your browser defines the window, and that definition messing with the javascript that creates the popup. But that is just a guess. The thing is that many people think that these popups are not core functionality of IH so I would guess that there is going to be little enthusiasm for code wrestling a arcane browser problem for this particular feature. Just a guess again though...

@Golden Synergy
There is a 'clean' version of the configure file, called dist-configure.php in the downloaded version of Zen. It will show you which lines should have '/' at the end of them and which should not.

I can't replicate the on image hover issue with Windows 7 and Chrome..

I have been using IH4 for a few weeks now and it's working great. Today I decided to try out the "additional images" feature and uploaded a few sample images. However, they are not showing up on the product page.

I searched through this thread, and even tried to do some advanced troubleshooting making sure all the files that needed to be updated were indeed updated. As far as I can tell, all is well, but I am still not seeing any of the additional images show up.

Can anyone provide some guidance as to where I should begin to look?

Installation fails if Admin is not in English.

I have a shop with Finnish language pack installed (English completely uninstalled).

In file admin/includes/init_includes/init_image_handler.php there is a SQL for installation:

$sql = "SELECT configuration_group_id FROM ".TABLE_CONFIGURATION_GROUP." WHERE configuration_group_title='".BOX_CONFIGURATION_IMAGES."' LIMIT 1";

With Finnish translation string BOX_CONFIGURATION_IMAGES is "Kuvat", while in database configuration_group_title is "Images"

Thus the installation fails as it doesn't find the right group.

Also, the configuration_title field in the configuration table is left blank (need to have the language files present in Finnish during the install?)

Can't find the specific posts right now, but if you search through this thread, installation in languages other than English is covered in this support thread.. (look for Gerjan's posts)
