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

[Ryk]

You're missing the whole point of Image Handler. All you do is upload your best quality image to images/ and all the rest is done automatically with resizing done on the fly.

I understand it right. But when you want to import a batch of products, more than 2000, you don't want to upload every image seperately. I want to organize these images (more than 3000), like the way it should be, where the folders images/small and images/large are meant to be for.

[Ryk]

Of course you can mass upload the images, but you only need upload the one image per product (rather than 3) and you upload them to images/(and to subcategories if you wish to organise them). You don't need medium and large versions at all.

But if you're insistent on having small (incidentally, there isn't an images/small directory in the standard ZC), medium and large variants that you create yourself, then you have no need for IH anyway.

You're right Ryk. But then I mis the nice zoom

Personally I hate that as it always seems to pop up at the wrong moment!

But at least I understand what you're reasoning is now. I vaguely remember someone else offering some sort of zoom facility, but I wouldn't know where...or when.

I've just installed IH2 over a zen-cart upgraded to v1.3.5 and generally I'm very happy with the features and implementation of IH2. Its clean, simple and straightforward - particulalry if installed first time straight into v1.3.5.

I have just one query at the moment. I've read back through the various forum threads and visted breakmyzencart.com/ih-doc but i can't find any reference to the handling of images destined for categories and attributes. The interface seems to be oriented towards product images and for me that works fine. However adding images for the other purposes seems to be out of this module's scope. Am i right? In which case do i need to get my hands dirty with the SMALL/MED/LRG directory stuff?

I don't know what I've done wrong, I've removed and reinstalled twice now! Everything is working great on the admin side, but on the customer side, the product image no longer shows on the product info page. It shows everywhere else, like on the category pages. Also, when you click the larger image link for both the product image and the additional images, just a blank screen comes up. Can someone help? Here is a link: http://www.qtpiekids.com/index.php?m...products_id=16

I've read through both threads but haven't found anything with this exact problem

Thanks!

@lucidlee - If you look in the images directory, you will see sub-directories for a variety of things like categories, banners & attriobutes

Those images have their sizes set in admin>configuration>images and there's only one size for each.

@danielle - have you set the bmz_cache permissions to 777?
