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

[Berserker]

Hello again,

I got it the way I want it to be but does it have to be done 1 by 1 and thru the IH2 admin only? Any quicker way to do it?

All the best...

Hi
I am fairly new at this so please bear with me. I have latest version of ZC and IH2. I want to use multiple pictures which are about 1600 X 800 and 800 X 800. Some are 190 kb in size. I used these on Auctiva and Ebay and really don';t want to redo all the pictures. How much will these slow the site down if I use them in this size? Am I better off to resize them smaller so pages load faster and how much difference would it make. What is the best size for pages to load reasonably quick?I will be selling, tokens, medallions, notes, etc and want people to be able to see the item and details clearly for both sides of the items. Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.

John,

IH2 will automatically make smaller versions of your images. This allows your pages to load quicker but still allows visitors to click on them to see the larger versions as well. The specific sizes are determined by the Zen admin, as I recall.

Not sure if this is me, thats missed something.......

IH2 and Lightbox installed, and if i do something like have an image thats too large (say, 1200 pixels) or have an image thats in CAPITALS or a space in it, then it seems to break the site

(breaking it the right hand side column and the footer don't show)

Should all images be altered to say 600 and named in lowercase to avoid this? (as this what it seems like)

Hope you can help

Image names are case-sensitive, you can name an image in all caps, but then you have to stick with that to call it.
No spaces in image names.
If your image is too large, yes it will break your page layout, depending, of course, on what that is.

I am currently using 1.3.8. I loaded IH2 and the admin portion appears to be working; however, I have encountered problems on my product page. The product main image has disappeared and the additional images are not showing. However I have also loaded the Cross Sell module and the IH zoom function is working for those images on that section of the page.
The strange thing is when I "view source" on the page the code is there for both the main image and additional images.

I checked that my bmz_cache and images folders have the same permissions (755) which they do. I think it has something to do with my custom template. I copied the contents from custom into my custom folder. I'm not sure I merged the popup_image_additional/tpl_main_page.php correctly.

Any ideas on what I've done wrong would be great.

You can view a page on my beta site that shows the errors.

My image handler has suddenly stopped working

Starting this morning, it's kind of crap shoot as to whether the additional images will show or not.

I can add the additional images in admin as always, but sometimes they're not showing on the product page. I haven't made any db changes or anything else.

Here's a product page for example, in admin this actually has 2 additional images but they're not showing up.

Here's a product that I also added today, and the additional image is showing!

h-e-l-p

PS to the above - I just added this product, using the same additional images as the one in the post above where they don't show, and there they are!

What the heck???

Your hover on additional images is not working either.
Check if all IH files are there, most of all imagehover.js.
IH installs this in template_default/jscript/.
If there is any javascript in the jscript folder of your CUSTOM template, imagehover will not work.

Sorry, it does work.
It is how I roll.
What you have to watch for is any of the scripts is not using the same function name.
This goes for either template_default/jscript/ or CUSTOM/jscript/
