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

[samad64]

are you adding the images in the admin panel? give that a shot.. Tools > Image Handler2.. and click "new file" for the product you're adding it for. Maybe that will work instead.. not sure

[BlessIsaacola]

maybe i missed it, as there are so many posts....

when ih2 IS installed i do NOT have any addtional images, as soon as i remove ih2 from the database.. i HAVE addtional images...

anyone else having this issue?

i have the latest ih2 and the latest zencart w/ all updates

If you're adding your images via the admin like the previous post instructed, you will have no problem. To directly upload the images to the server make sure you use the format:

image1.gif (or jpg or any other extension you're using)
image2_01.gif (or jpg or any other extension you're using)
image3_02.gif (or jpg or any other extension you're using)

You will obviously need to substitute image1, image2, image3 with the actually name of the image files.

This instruction only applied if you want to upload additional image directly to the server and have IH2 automatically load them.

thanks for your reply.

like i said in my post when ih2 is NOT installed my addtional images show up just fine. as soon as i add ih2 to my database they *poof* are gone.

the images are uploaded as you stated (they wouldnt show up when ih2 isnt installed other wise) i just can NOT get them to show up when ih2 is in the data base.

ill try deleting the extra images for one of the products and seei f uploading them through ih2 works that way. i was hoping not to have to do it that way since sooo many of the products have more than one image

I have coople smally tiny problems. I have installed the Image Handler 2 to my zencart 1.3

I have my zencart in a folder called /store folder.

1. test images showings as http://www.arthq.com.au/store/store/...es/ih-test.png. How and where can I fix this

2. Need a clarification -

When I add a new product and its image, there is an option to add an image of the product 'Products Image:' 'Upload to directory: ' etc . SO do I add the product image there OR after the product details are added I go to the Image Handler 2 to add my images?

AND If only one image is needed to be added and Image handler to handle the other two small and medium images, why is there three upload image options with small/med and large?

Which upload option should I take if I want to upload one image but Image handler to handle the small and the medium images?

3. Where do I configure the 'Watermarks' ?

[lamz]

how do i define the image size for the small/medium/large?

Totally newbie to ZenCart and IH2. I have searched this thread and I need step by step instruction for installing IH2 onto a test site so I do not break the primary one. I have tried twice to install IH and I believe I take all the files from IH and copy them into admin then admin/includes and so forth. But every now and then IH has the same file as Zen Cart do I overwrite or do I let ZenCarts file stay in tact. I need help. I want to use IH

I don't think it overwrites any files.. maybe since you uploaded it it asks you again to overwrite it.

You also have to go into Tools > Image Handler2 and click on "Admin" in there, and install it into the DB. it will not function until you do that

Hi there,
This worked for me. Go to Admin-->Catalog-->Product Type-->Product General (edit layout)-->Show Product Additional Images --set this to 1

to enlarge them, change these:

Product Info - Image Width 150
Product Info - Image Height 120

to the specified height. note that this will change it on the product info page too.. as the hovered image is the same size as the product image on its page

not sure how to do your other thing though, probably a change in the tpl_product_info.php file
