Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[stride-r]

Never Mind - Working now just fine - the last two rows WERE added to the database - my viewer had not sorted them and I missed them when examining the resultset. Also, i had forgotten i needed to enable the permissions under Third- Party Mods for Zen Lightbox under Admin profiles in order to access the Admin for it. (sheepish grin goes here) All works fine now.

[kwright]

I really enjoy the image presentation using this contrib. Thank you!

I was hoping someone could tell me if I could us Zen Lightbox to pull-in other content (pages) such as the Shipping Estimator or something simple like the shopping cart Help page?

May be through an iframe? Any code or resource references would be helpful!

Thanks

Hello everyone,

First of all I'm a big fan of lightbox since the day I first laid my eyes on it.

I always make sure to implement it on my clients websites.

Anyways I was trying to implement this mod on one of my clients website and its a customization + zen cart.

After going through the instructions for installing this module, I thought well this seems very straight forward which I think all of you agree with.

Unfortunately, I'm that 1% who's not able to get it running right out of the box.

Now, I think this may be related to my other problem which is no popup windows work on the site that I'm working on. Just the normal popup for viewing larger images or even the shipping estimator doesn't work.

Could someone be kind enough to help me out here ?

Thanks

This may have been covered elsewhere ( i seem to recall reading a headline to this effect - but cannot now refind it - if so, sorry to repost):

Is there a way to have a link to an image that has been html hard-coded into a product's description also open using the lightbox effect?

Okay, what am I doing wrong? I uploaded the Lightbox files and ran Install.txt. How do I call lightbox in an image now? I tried adding rel="lightbox" which is what I use in WordPress, but to no avail. Help please?

I see what the deal is now...it automatically does Lightbox on certain pages. Is there a way to add additional pages to this so that images on my mainpage are lightboxed?

Hi folks,

I've been trawling through this thread to try and sort this out but I'm struggling - apologies if I've missed something obvious -

I've got the lightbox installed and it's working ok for the large product images in product listings.

However, I can't get it to work with the extra images on a product - they're still using the standard popup.

I've got all the relevant images loaded to images/, images/large (with _LRG) suffix), and images/medium (with _MED suffix).

Thanks in advance.

I seem to have this problem as well. I have picture 1 as my category image then when I am on the product info page I have a different picture. When i click on the product info image to bring up the large image with lightbox it will bring up my category image instead of the product info image which I am clicking on. Did you ever get a fix for this? Does anyone know how to fix it?

I might have narrowed it down to this file attrib_prod_info.php for me at least. Since I have installed the mod to have attributes replace main images when selected. The code inside of this file looks like this...

<?php
require('includes/application_top.php');

$products_options_values_id = $_REQUEST['products_options_values_id'];
$alt = $_REQUEST['alt'];	
$width = $_REQUEST['width'];	
$height = $_REQUEST['height'];	
$products_id = $_REQUEST['products_id'];	


$sql = "select    pa.attributes_image 
from      " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . " pa 
where     pa.products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'
and       pa.options_values_id = '" . (int)$products_options_values_id ."'";

$account_query = $db->bindVars($sql, ':customersID', $_SESSION['customer_id'], 'integer');
$products_color_image = $db->Execute($sql);

$attributes_image = $products_color_image->fields['attributes_image'];
if($attributes_image!=''){
$image = zen_image('images/'.$attributes_image, $alt, $width, $height);
?>
<?php echo '<a href="javascript:popupWindow(\'' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_IMAGE_ADDITIONAL, 'products_image_large_additional=' . 'images/'.$attributes_image) . '\')">' . $image . '<br /><span class="imgLink">' . zen_image('images/bigger_picture.jpg', 'larger image', '140', '44') . '</span></a>'; ?>
<?php }?>

And I am pretty sure this is the culprit. I deleted this part

<?php echo '<a href="javascript:popupWindow(\'' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_IMAGE_ADDITIONAL, 'products_image_large_additional=' . 'images/'.$attributes_image) . '\')">' . $image . '<br /><span class="imgLink">' . zen_image('images/bigger_picture.jpg', 'larger image', '140', '44') . '</span></a>'; ?>
<?php }?>

and everything still worked except when i clicked on the drop down menu and chose a product. Then it gave me an error. So is there a way to change the above code to work with lightbox instead of a generic java popup window?
