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

[tophand]

Thx for hanging in there with me crabdance. I saw that too when I loaded the files and place a copy of the script in both places. Unfortunately that didnt work either.

Maybe some background will help. I loaded one set of large files (510 x 439) and let the mod take care of the sizing for the smaller images. The Small Image is set to 127 x 110 and the Product Info image set to 255 x 220.

How are you naming your image files?
It looks like you are adding "_LRG" to the file name.
Looking at your product list and product display pages I get the same image file name.

If you are doing this, you are turning off IH for that image.

Hi,

Someone's posted this problem already, but couldn't find a fix for it...

When I turn watermarks on for all images (small, medium and large), only the small watermarks work.

Someone recommended changing the large and medium files to a GIF file instead, but this didn't work either.

Any ideas please?

Cheers!

PS - As a note, when I go to admin/image_handler.php?page=preview no images are showing up. When I view the image properties, they show as shop/shop/admin/images/ih-test.png instead of shop/admin/images/ih-test.png

Hi OJM,

I had the same problem about the dup directories. I had to re-install to get things to work right.

If it was me.
I would just uninstall from the admin after clearing the image cache.
Then upload fresh files then from the admin again install.

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling but this didnt solve the problem. I also found out another problem. One of the products has more than 3 pictures. It has pictures that are from other products.

Thios means that you have not named your additional images correctly and Zen Cart is confused as to which products they belong to. There's a FAQ entry which explains in detail how this works.

Hi Kuroi,

Thanks for pointing that out. This could be the problem. But how did it happen as did not insert multiple images for this product. This product is supposed to have only tee.jpg as its only product image. However, in the IH2 manager, this product has the following images associated.
tee-back-view.jpg
tee-basic.jpg
tee-bynight2.jpg
tee.jpg
tee-chicago3.jpg

I thought additional images will only be inserted to a product when we name the filenames the following way using underscore. Does hyphen work as well? If it does, I might have to manually dissociate the irrelevant images.
tee.jpg (original)
tee_01.jpg
tee_02.jpg
tee_whatever.jpg

No and no. Additional images are any that share the same beginning as the base product name (i.e. less the extension) for a product. So in the case of a product with the image tee.jpg, absolutely any image that starts "tee" will be treated as an additional image for that product.

Hyphens, underscores and so on are just for good naming practise as they help to identify to you which images you intended as additional images.
