Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

[deadeye]

not sure if answered questions - but it sounds like people are trying to make changes to images thru FTP into directories and it isn't going to work that way (easily anyway)

I actually still upload my additional images through FTP...seems to work ok for me with those. Dunno though. I got it installed/working and it seems very good to me. I'm on 1.3.0.2.

I stand corrected - the first time I tried it, it didn't work for me - now it does.

I guess I better know what I'm talking about before explaining something....

thanks

Before IH, I had uploaded 140 product images the conventional way. Everything worked just fine, including the "large images." I assumed IH would take over the management of the images and I would only have to install it and make some changes to the image configs.

I'll revisit IH when I have time.
Thanks for all the help.

I found how to change the medium image. It's the Product Info - width and height parameters under admin-->config-->images

Bad news is I have to re-do my template if I want my medium images to be larger :) Guess it uses the same on the IH zoom as it does in the product images space on an item's listing. Which blows out my template. Oh well :)

I'm rebuilding my shop in 1.3. I did a fresh install of zencart and imported all of my products from my 1.2+ and had to ftp the pictures. I've installed image handler but I can't see any additional pictures. Even when i uninstall it via the admin, i can't see any additional pictures.

I understand that this was meant for you to add items and pics via the admin, but there is now way I'm going to re-do that for 1500+ products.

I see that this seems to be a common problem. Any one solve this?

Not sure if this is best placed here or in the css flyout thread, guess I'll try both.

Since installing IH2, my flyout css categories show up underneath the pictures...see here: http://www.divaknitting.com/testzens...cPath=18_65_66

How can I correct this so that the menu shows on top?

I have the same question posted...
I checked your site both in IE & FireFox, the menu is ONTOP of your images..
How did you fix it ?

Re: Css Flyout Categories Menu troubles

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In your stylesheet_menu.css, you have a line that says:
Code:
div#nav-cat li {position: relative; list-style: none; margin: 0;simply add this on the next line:

Code:
z-index: 1;

Ok, I fixed my problem. Apparently there is a switch for additional images. I've looked far and wide for it in the admin, but I couldn't find it. But here it is the tpl_modules_additional_images file.

<?php
if ($flag_show_product_info_additional_images != 0 && $num_images > 0) {
?>

So I removed it and the closing part of it at the bottom of the tpl file and wah-lah it works. I feel sheepish for not finding the problem when it was just caused by a switch, but I cannot find it in the admin to save my life (and i have the reference mod installed).

Anyways, maybe this can help someone else.

Thanks.

okya, first i had issues with the two lines delimiter thingy, and so i uninstalled ih2 and it fixed things (of course), then i read through this thread and did some of the fixes. (i didnt find any white space at the end of the file)

well i reinstalled and had issues so i went in and turned OFF (yes i said OFF) the proportional images and BAM! no more errors.

WAIT WAIT i still have a problem - now all my images look like crap!

any ideas on where to look to see if there is something i have done wrong?

this is the second install of this i have done, the first time i must have gotten distracted (the 2yr old is good for that) and didnt upload all the files cause it was allll screwy, so i reinstalled and this time made sure i installed ALL the files as the directions said.

so im stuck


also can someone please explain how this works w/ easy populate? when i connect the files in the ep file do i THEN go in and upload EACH one via ih2?
