Images zoom perfectly on the pages. I'm trying to upload a small JPG, does the reference to a GIF in the address have anything to do with it?

Thanks for the help.

Use large images as Image Handler makes small and medium from your large images.

I'm not sure why Gif would be in the address if it's a jpg but sounds like there might be a problem there.

You can go into your admin, configuration and images and change the filetype if it is a gif and it'll then work with Gif files.

Regarding your error message. Check the file image_handler.php is installed and in the correct folder.

Clear the image cache and set permissions on the images folder and bmz_cache to 755.

Make sure there are no image files in the medium and large folders as otherwise Image Handler just won't do it's job.

Thank you for your help, but, unfortunately, it still doesn't work...
The problem isn't in the cache directory but in the fact that the image uplaoded is set to CHMOD 600 instead of 755 (as when you upload image through categories/products).

Any other solution?

I can easily do this if someone could direct me to the file and line that uploads/moves the files to server. Does anybody know where this is?

I was able to find the answer to this question. The file to edit is /admin/includes/ih_manager.php. In my version, I changed lines 166-212.

Change the following (old code):

Code:

    if ($check != 1) {
      // check for destination directory and create, if they don't exist!
      // Then move uploaded file to its new destination
      
      // default image
      if ($_FILES['default_image']['name'] != '') {
        io_makeFileDir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES.$data['defaultFileName']);
        $source_name = $_FILES['default_image']['tmp_name'];
        $destination_name = DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES . $data['defaultFileName'];
        if ( !move_uploaded_file($source_name, $destination_name) ) {
          $messageStack->add( TEXT_MSG_NOUPLOAD_DEFAULT, "error" );
          $check = 1;
        }
      }
      // medium image
      if ($_FILES['medium_image']['name'] != '') {
        $data['mediumImgExtension'] = substr( $_FILES['medium_image']['name'], 
          strrpos($_FILES['medium_image']['name'], '.'));
        $data['mediumFileName'] ='medium/' . $data['imgBaseDir']
          . $data['imgBase'] 
          . $data['imgSuffix'] . IMAGE_SUFFIX_MEDIUM
          . $data['mediumImgExtension'];
        io_makeFileDir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES.$data['mediumFileName']);
        $source_name = $_FILES['medium_image']['tmp_name'];
        $destination_name = DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES . $data['mediumFileName'];
        if ( !move_uploaded_file($source_name, $destination_name) ) {
          $messageStack->add( TEXT_MSG_NOUPLOAD_MEDIUM, "error" );
          $check = 1;
        }
      }
      // large image
      if ($_FILES['large_image']['name'] != '') {
        $data['largeImgExtension'] = substr( $_FILES['large_image']['name'], 
          strrpos($_FILES['large_image']['name'], '.'));
        $data['largeFileName'] = 'large/' . $data['imgBaseDir']
          . $data['imgBase'] 
          . $data['imgSuffix'] . IMAGE_SUFFIX_LARGE
          . $data['largeImgExtension'];
        io_makeFileDir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES.$data['largeFileName']);
        $source_name = $_FILES['large_image']['tmp_name'];
        $destination_name = DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES . $data['largeFileName'];
        if ( !move_uploaded_file($source_name, $destination_name) ) {
          $messageStack->add( TEXT_MSG_NOUPLOAD_LARGE, "error" );
          $check = 1;
        }
      }  
    }

to (new code):

Code:

    if ($check != 1) {
      // check for destination directory and create, if they don't exist!
      // Then move uploaded file to its new destination
      
      // default image
      if ($_FILES['default_image']['name'] != '') {
        io_makeFileDir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES.$data['defaultFileName']);
        $source_name = $_FILES['default_image']['tmp_name'];
        $destination_name = DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES . $data['defaultFileName'];
        if ( !move_uploaded_file($source_name, $destination_name) ) {
          $messageStack->add( TEXT_MSG_NOUPLOAD_DEFAULT, "error" );
          $check = 1;
        }
		else
		{
			chmod($destination_name, 0755);
		}
      }
      // medium image
      if ($_FILES['medium_image']['name'] != '') {
        $data['mediumImgExtension'] = substr( $_FILES['medium_image']['name'], 
          strrpos($_FILES['medium_image']['name'], '.'));
        $data['mediumFileName'] ='medium/' . $data['imgBaseDir']
          . $data['imgBase'] 
          . $data['imgSuffix'] . IMAGE_SUFFIX_MEDIUM
          . $data['mediumImgExtension'];
        io_makeFileDir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES.$data['mediumFileName']);
        $source_name = $_FILES['medium_image']['tmp_name'];
        $destination_name = DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES . $data['mediumFileName'];
        if ( !move_uploaded_file($source_name, $destination_name) ) {
          $messageStack->add( TEXT_MSG_NOUPLOAD_MEDIUM, "error" );
          $check = 1;
        }
		else
		{
			chmod($destination_name, 0755);
		}
      }
      // large image
      if ($_FILES['large_image']['name'] != '') {
        $data['largeImgExtension'] = substr( $_FILES['large_image']['name'], 
          strrpos($_FILES['large_image']['name'], '.'));
        $data['largeFileName'] = 'large/' . $data['imgBaseDir']
          . $data['imgBase'] 
          . $data['imgSuffix'] . IMAGE_SUFFIX_LARGE
          . $data['largeImgExtension'];
        io_makeFileDir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES.$data['largeFileName']);
        $source_name = $_FILES['large_image']['tmp_name'];
        $destination_name = DIR_FS_CATALOG_IMAGES . $data['largeFileName'];
        if ( !move_uploaded_file($source_name, $destination_name) ) {
          $messageStack->add( TEXT_MSG_NOUPLOAD_LARGE, "error" );
          $check = 1;
        }
		else
		{
			chmod($destination_name, 0755);
		}
      }  
    }

As you can see, I added 3 chmod functions after each upload. You can change the permissions from 0755 to 0777 or whatever you want. If you want to check the version, the top of this file has the following:

Finally it works!

Thank you so much, gonsman! You saved my life (and my small brain...)

You can go into your admin, configuration and images and change the filetype if it is a gif and it'll then work with Gif files.

Regarding your error message. Check the file image_handler.php is installed and in the correct folder.

Thanks. I found what was wrong. When I was setting it up, each time FTP'ed the bmz_io_conf.php file to the admin directory, my admin interface went blank. I installed it without that file, and forgot to transfer it again. I put it in the directory and that problem is solved.

I have one more small problem. In the categories/product section, the new icon wih the "i" is missing from between the copy and attribute icon. What would cause that to happen? Thanks in advance.

**Scarlet** · 23 Apr 2009, 06:13 PM

I must not know how to use this mod - I installed everything and nothing has changed on the storefront. The images don't popup when hovered over, even though it says to do so. It looks just like the regular additional images before I added the mod. Anyone know what I might have done wrong? I triple checked I uploaded all the files.

I have looked and looked, and I can't see how to upload images. The directions that tell me to go to admin/images/logo.gif. I know where admin - configurations - images is. but I don't see a logo.gif. I know that I am missing something basic.

Thanks,
