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

It was recommended that I utilize this module in order to speed up my site. I read through several of these postings, and to be quite honest, was hesitant about loading the module. HOWEVER the module loaded very easily and everything went smoothly. I like the added features it provides for my site and appreciate not only all the work you put into programming the module, but put into monitoring and responding to the people in this thread.

Loading this module did not speed up my site, but added an effect I was looking for.

Thanks again

A link help us to help you.

On this page I have the hover: index page, except for at the bottom for Featured Products.

But here I don't: subcategory product listing page

The index page category images are not being served by ZC, I'm linking to them. Not sure if that is a clue to why it works with them & not with the others or not. I actually don't want the hover there, I only would want it for the small images in the listings.

HI there I just wanted to know if Image Handler 2 was the right addon for us.

We have 3 images on each product page. All of them show at 100x100px. When you click on them they show at their original size which is 400x400px

What we are looking for is for:

2 images to show at their standard size 100x100px which is happening now.

--
But the 3rd image we want to show at its original size on the products page which is 400x400px.
--

Is this possible with Image Handler 2 or should we be looking at some feature in the control panel or even playing with the script.

Cheers
Mal

admin-->Config-->Images
Just change to the size you want displayed on the product page.
You don't need IH for this.

Thanks for your reply Tophand.

If I do this through configuration - images, I am under the impression that it changes all images to the size that we nominate.

We have 3 images for each product and wanted to see the following result.

images/img_1.jpg = 100x100 px
images/img_2.jpg = 100x100 px
images/img_3.jpg = 400x400 px

If I change the size in configuration - images I can only nominate 1 size for all 3 of them which would mean;

images/img_1.jpg = 100x100 px
images/img_2.jpg = 100x100 px
images/img_3.jpg = 100x100 px

Is the 400x400 image your main product image?

[malhyp]

Sorry, im not 100% sure if I understand your question.

Lets say I have 10 products in the whole website. Each product has 3 images.

The full size for all three of them is 400x400px.

When you are in the product page, you can see 3 images. The 1st one or the main image is; img_1.jpg which shows at 100x100px and expands to 400x400px when you click onto it to see it.

Then below that we have two other images; img_2.jpg = 100x100 px and when you click onto it you see a pic that is 400x400px.

The 3rd image; img_3.jpg = 400x400 px and we would like it to show at 400x400px.

Did that answer your q?

Trying to find out where you have your 400x400 image at.
So we are talking about Additional Images.

You might want to start here.
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9114

In a nutshell you will need to create a small, medium and large size file for each of your images. For your Additional images create a small and large file.
For your 400x400 image, just create it at 400x400.

Image Handler does not do this as it get the info from Zen Cart via Admin--.Config-->Images

See link.
The hover is based upon the size you set for small images.
If you don't want the hover, then make the size is different from the small images setting.

Might need to move your category images to the correct folder.
(/store/images)

Hello,

Is there a image file size limit for IH2? A client of mine uploaded some images on his own and now the site shows up broken.. The product image (which he uploaded) won't show up. I looked at the files and most of them are over 1MB. Is that the problem? Also, some image file names content "space" (such as "kk2 8.JPG") Is that a trouble maker as well?

Please help. Thank you!
