Try deleting the image with the same name, or if you have already ... try clearing the image cache under Tools :: Image Handler 2 .

Hello,

I tried Image Handler on my development environment. It provides great functionalities and seems to work fine. So I would like some more information before to deploy it on the production platform :

- I download image-handler_2.0-zc13 from breakmyzencart.com
There is also (another?) version on zencart.com download site.

Are they the same? If not what is the the good version for zc1.3.7?

- I compare some modules which replace original ZC's. I feel uncomfortable to see that some of them seem older than original ones. For example: includes/functions/html_output.php

Is the current version of Image Handler fully compatible with ZC1.3.7?

- I think that image preparation "on the fly" generates overloads.

Can you give me usual limits to respect to be sure our online customers get the best response time (max number of small images by pages for example)?

- Image Handler activate the hover functionnality based on "small image size" parameters. The Index page "What's new" listing is based on "Image - New product size" parameters. For many reasons, I set these parameters (width and height) higher than "small image" :
Small Image Width 130
Small Image Height 130
Image - New Products Width 150
Image - New Products Height 150
The result is that the hover functionnality is not activated on these images.

Do you know a solution to activate it anyway? change the size is not an answer ...

Thank you in advance for your answers.

I know, this thread has 174 pages but if you spent time you would have found most if not all the answers to your questions.
But I feeling in a helpful mood so...
Newest IH --> Version: 2.0 v0916 in the Zen Cart downloads <---click

If you check it out, you see it does not even have html_output.php.
It's stated right on the page.
Also works very well with ZC1.3.7
One of the reasons to use IH is..
* Improved site performance (faster loading, faster display).
Ok, some people have trouble because they are uploading very large image files (2+MB) and if it is not IH that chokes but could be either GD libraries or ImageMagick that chokes. Work around is to upload the largest file you want displayed (large file to display is 450x450, so that is the size uploaded).
Also loading up a page with a lot of images will slow down response time no matter if you use IH or not.

And you last question --> no.
Hoover only works on small images.

Hello Tophand,
Thank you for your helpul mood. The go live of IH has been a success.
So I suggest to avoid to have to reply to stupid guy like me not courageous enough to read 198765 posts to modify the text of the mod : thi is the very last version of of IH. Instaled succesfuly by cdelab on ZC V1.3.7 with support of Tophand ;-)
Thank you.
