Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

Actually your site suffers from this very badly, your site takes a very long time to load. As such your users will experiance this problem.

But I would be suprised if anyone makes it to a product info page. Ive not sat around long enough to wait for a full page on your website to load so I could not really comment on your design - but you really should consider less is more!

Perhaps if you cleared your cache or have a look at your site on a different computer you would see that you have a lot of hard work to do! We are not all on 8mb broadband!

Alex if you sorted this problem I think this module would be awsume!!! Ive just put it on my test site and it really is classy - adds so much to it. I will owe you big style if you can fix this.

Thanks for your hardwork -


Every second that a your website takes to load you lose 10% of internet surfers.

i clear my cache constatly to make sure css changes take effect, so im not sure why its loading slow for you.

and i test my site on three diffrent computers, one w/ XP, two with osX, personally and i have a few people that i call to test it too, none of which have any issues pulling up my site.

i HAVE had issues with my host being slow, i have had to call and ########## at them more than once because my site slowed down to a crawl...

Alex,

Were you able to take a look at my site? Any suggestions to changes that need to be made in my CSS to fix the bottom not being covered?

The way I am using the two is I am letting IH2 create my thumbnails. Then I have lightbox pulling the original large image for the blow up. So IH2 isn't creating the enlarged image on the fly. Plus I had to modify it to work with 1.2.7. But that was easy. Only had to modify a couple places.

Ah this is wonderful I was just about to start building a lightbox plug to my site and here we go.. thanks for you guys making it happen.

Anyway wanted to ask from gearstudios or whomever how to get this working with 1.2.7 I'm not using ih at all.

many thanks

This is my first post so please bear with me. I love this mod. The only problem I have is it locks up when trying to open 2nd or 3rd images on the page. Hereis a page that I am talking about. If i have too I will remove Extra images. I do like this MOD!!

Glad that you're enjoying Zen Lightbox!

Did you install it correctly? Also, what other mods/contributions have you installed?

And finally... what verson of Zen Cart are you running?

[brylees]

I have ZC 1.3.5. I have added the folllowing MODS

News_Box_Manager
Printable Price List Ver 1.2
LOGIN Box 1.4.1
Flash Banner
Some Payment Modules/
Oh and a ask a question module

It is still pretty stock. I was just about to try to install IH2 and see if that helps. I am just wondering If I did something wrong?
Thanks In Advance.

I would recommend installing Image Handler 2.

See if that helps.

Also, when the lightbox appears on your site it is displayed under the flash banner (at the top). To work round this simply place your flash code (in your header file) inside the following tag...

<div class="flash"> your-flash-code-goes-here </div>

Also make sure that the class flash doesn't exist in any of your css files.

This will basically tell Zen Lightbox to hide any elements with the 'flash' class.

Hope this helps! :)

OK I will do that. Thanks for the quick help. Again I think this is a great mod. I will inIH2 and check the tags and let you know what happens.

[brylees]

OK I tried that. Now my computer is smoking and the server blew up. Just kidding.. The IH2 fixed the problem and the Flash tags hides my flash banner. Everything is gravy. I appreciate all your help.
