Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[DarkAngel]

Hey Dark Angel,
Maybe you can help me again. I had lightbox working perfectly, then I added a new template. I went in and added the lightbox folders to all the new template directories like I did the first time. Now Lightbox works, but it doesnt show the additional images. Just the main one. Any suggestions?

Is it a paid theme from somewhere else? It kind of depends on the theme...I found that some paid themes won't play nice with this lightbox due to their own jscripting throughout.

What theme is it?

Actually, it is a paid theme. You can view it here:

Yup it does look like the ones that I was speaking of. They also had that flash type of item on their main page. There is a lightbox that works with it and what you need to do is uninstall the one you have now --- uninstall the SQL also --- remove all files associated with it.

Then download the lightbox zip. I do not know if linking to is permitted since it is off site so pm or email me

I can get you the link.


ALSO: you can try this...go to the configuration in admin and the lightbox controls....set it to NOT show the main image, see if that helps since you do see the lightbox effect with the store right now.

Thanks. I will send you a pm. Also, how do you run the uninstall again?

you delete all the files for lightbox you uploaded, then you use the uninstall sql to remove the lightbox totally.

See the main reason that some of those themes don't work is that they are custom made and mixup the code to suit their purposes. They also have no idea what add-ons a person has installed so sometimes the files they send are overwriting the files that have the coding...like in this case the lightbox files.

that is the only hard part of this software...the add-ons and playing nice with custom themes.

Just wanted to say.... GREAT MOD!!!

Thank you so much for all your work. Instructions were easy to follow and it worked like a dream.

For interest sake... this was installed on a TemplateMonster template and there are no problems with it running at all.

Cheers.
