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

So is the issue with the broken image thumbnails on the admin site a .htaccess file issue??

I won't make this sweeping statement since I cannot replicate this issue in any of my installs. shartlesville posted that this resolved HER issue..

BTW, .htaccess "issue" means the directive she removed from her file is probably not supported by her webhost.. (hence why removing it "solved" her problem)

I tried everything listed in this thread and couldn't' get any of the thumbnails to show up in my admin, but I finally figured it out.

SOLUTION FOR ME I originally installed zencart using my hosts (Bluehost) control panel and when it installed, in both of my configure.php files somehow double slashes were added. I deleted the extra slashes in DIR_WS_CATALOG' and DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG and now it works. I had to change the permissions also to get it to save. Hopefully that helps someone.

I just thought of one other question though: Is it possible to easily add a suffix to all of my image names, maybe by running a sql patch or something? I want to add some keywords and didn't think about it before uploading all of my images...what would be the easiest way to do this?

Thanks for sharing your fix. This is a Zen Cart configuration issue and not an IH4 "issue".. This is why it's always better to NOT use your hosts "auto-installer".

Find a file re-naming program, rename your images, delete the old images form your site, then upload the new files.. but afterwards you will need to run a SQL patch to update the products table to point your product to the new image names.. This isn't related to IH4 support so if you need to open a longer discussion on this then you need to start a new thread and hopefully other community members can weigh in..

I used the thread's search function but didn't see my problem.

I'm aware of the product red/green on/off bug caused by IH4 and applied the fix for that.

However, I am experiencing the same problem with my Specials in admin: red/green on/off button does not work.

Fresh 1.5 ZC install with IH4 yesterday on my main site: prommart com

I have another fresh 1.5 cart without IH4 and the Specials on/off button works there, so I suspect IH4 for now.

Anyone experienced the problem with the Specials button and know of the fix? Thanks.

EDIT: Just noticed the same Specials button problem on my sister's 1.5 site with IH4

Similar issue.. different cause.. The issue with the product red/green on/off required a fix to a file that IH4 modifies (admin/includes/modules/category_product_listing.php).. The issue you are experiencing with specials is NOT caused by IH4 as IH4 makes NO modifications to the specials listing at all..

Thanks.

Hmmm, since I have Specials problem on two 1.5 sites I wonder what it is. Do you know if anyone else has experienced it in 1.5?

Only 1.5 site I have that Specials button works is the one without IH4.

I wish I could help.. I'm not entirely sure what the issue might be either.. I can say it is NOT caused by IH4 or related to the IH4 install.. The fact that you are having issue with sites that happen to have IH4 installed is merely a coincidence.. Try posting a new thread in the forum and see if the community has some feedback for you on this..

Thanks. You're probably right: it isn't IH4. I just looked at two more of my 1.5 sites with IH4 and the Specials on/off button works.

I'm now suspecting the very latest version of Ultimate SEO I just installed on my main site. The other sites have a slightly earlier version of Ultimate, so the latest on my main site I think is the difference. I'll see. But not sure how or why it would affect the Specials button in admin.
