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

[mrmeech]

I think here lies your problem. I always just upload images to the main directory, but if you are choosing to put them in a different folder, then I suppose your watermark needs to be in images/large/product_images/ folder? Again, I'm not too positive, because I've never uploaded them into a different folder, but I am sure that you have your watermark in the wrong place, since you use a different image folder.

Also, with IH2, you should not be uploading any large images manually. You upload the size you want your large image to be, then IH2 will automatically re-size your small and medium images for you, according to your image sizes set in your admin. But if you were doing it manually (which kind of defeats the purpose of installing IH2 in the first place), again, you have things in the wrong folder, since you are putting your images in a different folder. any large images would need to be in images/large/product_images/

If I were you, I'd make my life easier, and keep everything in the default images folder, as I'm not sure how well IH2 is programmed to work with different folders?

Jettrue, please see my response to Get Em Fast. (Essentially, I tried moving some test images to the default image folder but it still didn't work... i also cleared the cache in the IH2 control panel and updated the database product table to reflect the image path change...)

Configuration->Images->Product Info - Number of Additional Images per Row is set to 3.

BTW, I can see the additional images in IH2, but nothing shows in the catalog.

Any thoughts?

I got worried cause I never tested more than one additional image with my code fix , but its working for me. http://www.zencart137.jadetrue.com/i...&products_id=8

The images were uploaded using the IH tool in the admin.

I'm attaching my classes/bmz_image_handler.php, just in cause there was an issue with your edit.

Also make sure you've uploaded the new includes/modules/additional_images.php that comes with this mod.

THANK YOU SO MUCH JETTRUE....the file classes/bmz_image_handler.php, you attached did the work
Now I can see the other images too, must have been...dunno, anyway and again, thank you very much.

Regards,

Are you only uploading one image? Removed the _MED and _LRG files? Can you link me to a product where they are no longer in the product_images folder?

I notice line 126 and 128 of bmz_image_hander.class.php deal with large and medium sizing. Check your image heights/widths, and make sure they are not empty?

ETA: Also make sure you have a suffix in the suffix boxes:

Product Info - Image Medium Suffix: _MED
Product Info - Image Large Suffix: _LRG

Yup! That was what the probem was. I had those feilds empty...

Thanks so much

I moved the image for this product out of the images/product_images folder and it is now in the main image directory. There are no _MED or _LRG files.

and one more question...

any way to keep animated gif's working for product images?

yes, I know they are so 90's but I've got one image that works great for what I need but IH stops the animation... I tried deleting in IH2 manager and loading it via ZC categories/products but IH2 still controls it (hover)

ideas....

Has anyone succeeded having both animated gif and ih2?
It works either one of two following for me:
1. No resizing of small image then it gets animated with no zooming image hover.
2. Small images are not animated, but the hovering zoomed image gets animated. <-- this would be a better option, but so much for making animated gifs. I'd rather have animating small image that does not animate when [hovered and] zoomed.

In other words, when the small image is set to be resized, it's not animated. [although it's not actually being resized. The animated image that I'm playing with is exactly the size of small image setting].

Anyone?
Or has anyone got a good explanation so that I stop trying??

[mrmeech]

That's right, jettru.....the images need to be in the main image directory, if you want just one image.....if you want more than one image, then the images STILL need to be in MAIN "images/medium" & "images/large" folders. And so do the watermark.png's.

mrmeech.......are you wanting just one image to be resized for each product, or are you trying for 1 small image on the index page, with a DIFFERENT, yet bigger image on hover (which will be the same as on the product info page), and yet a DIFFERENT, yet larger image upon click of the product info image?
If you want the same image, just resized, then you don't need ANY _MED, or _LRG images AT ALL.

So i just noticed that the large image isn't being processed by IH2 at all (i don't think). Essentially, it doesn't matter which folder i have the image in (being either the main image folder or my images/product_images folder) once i click on the product image to zoom to the large image, i noticed that the filename of the large image never changes. Ya know how the image filename gets converted to a bunch of numbers and letters once it shoots through IH2? Well, that's not happening somehow. What could be preventing this?

For anyone that hasn't been following along with this, here's a link to the site in question: http://www.qcookies.com

Hi!
I am using Zen Cart 1.2.6d and have been succesfully using SEFU for about a year. Excellent contribution.
Today, I thought of using Image Handler 2 also with this website. Though the IH installed very well and is working, SEFU stopped working. It does not go beyond the home page.
My website is www.indiansalwarkameez.net
I have turned off SEFU as of now but I desperately need to have it working soon.
I noticed that it adds "cpath" in the URL and the file extension .html is also missing, which causes it to show up an error.

Well, I don't know how it happened, or even when! But at some point I lost the ability to click the medium image on the product page to get the large pop-up window. There is no link text that says "Click for larger image" and clicking the medium image does nothing. Everything else is working just fine. I don't know what happened, and I definately don't know how to fix it! Any help would be appreciated!

Couldn't begin to tell you why this happened, but I DID notice a type-o in your footer:
