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

[Justwade]

Mine does look different,

himmmm...

There a lot of posts here so forgive me if the answer is obvious or was already addressed,

That image of Elfboy' post looks different than mine too. That image shows "Version 2", mine does not show any version. I went to breakmyzencart, and his demo image has "Version 2.0-rc1".

I use IH2 with Zen 1.37, my images on the site are working properly so I am a little concerned with breaking IH when I can leave it alone for awhile longer, I got others problems right now. But my admin is giving me trouble and if I add new images I will need to address that.

Was there some fixes that I don't know about that I should just upgrade into?

The most up to date version of IH is the one available in the Downloads section as the author of the mod is no longer able to support it.

Just a note for when people refer to "about page 100 in the thread" - you can change the number of posts displayed to you through your UserCP, so it would be helpful to say what posts per page you are viewing yourself.

Do you upload a small medium and large, or only one image?

Yes I just upload one image (about 900 px wide), the "default", and let IH do the resizing. In fact that's the main reason I use IH.

The most up to date version of IH is the one available in the Downloads section as the author of the mod is no longer able to support it.

Good info to know. The Downloads section description says "Make sure, you always get the newest version by visiting http://breakmyzencart.com/image-handler"
Maybe someone can change the description?

I downloaded both and compared modification dates and used the most recent (I think it was from the Downloads section!)

I think I'm starting to piece this together....let me know if I've got this right:

The reason I'm seeing "delete" buttons on the med/large images is because the old version of IH created different sizes and saved them (I think with _LRG and _MED suffixes) whereas the new version creates the other 2 sizes "on-the-fly" and puts them in the cache directory.

Sound like a good theory?

OK, its not working. Only the one I added after installing IH2 is showing up.

As you can see the multiple images for Sphalerite are not showing unless I disable IH2.

I agree, it may also be helpful to say "about post 100 (or whatever) in the thread" so we dont have to think about reseting our UserCP to search the area just because our math abiltiy is kind of fading away.

What am I missing? Every so often I get all these number images as additional images for a product with only one image. How do I prevent this from happening? Not all my products will have the same number of images and deleting them one by one is time consuming.

Thanks!

Please correct me if I am mistaken. Read somewhere that stating the image height and width attributes (i.e. the img tag) would help browser to "process" images faster.

If that is true, perhaps IH2 can be tweaked to automatically add the height and width attributes since it already has fields in the Admin for specifying these info. for Small, Medium, and Large images?

I'm a PHP-newbie with an idea. Any advice and/or taker? Thank you.

For some reason, the IH2 is making all sizes 500 x 500, even though I have different sizes set in the admin. I installed it, then installed a product info display mod which may have messed it up, but I can't figure out how. I am pretty sure I've deleted all the files from that template mod and replaced the ones it would have changed, but I still am seeing only 500 x 500 sizes when I look at the image in the image handler.

Help?

Thanks!

Okay, I FINALLY deleted every file and folder of the original install, reuploaded them and installed again and it works. One question, though...I want an additional image on the product info page to display at full size. Right now, it's showing up as the small size with the hover and large image options working. Can I make it default to the large size there?

Thanks!
