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

Problem Installing Image Handler 2 into the zox Module.
Site: http://montereybayimages.com

I have Zox installed and working in XOOPS. I am having a problem getting Image Handler to work after installing it in Zox. Specifically, Image Handler does not show up under the Admin-Tools menu in ZC.

The Store_Root folder is installed in the Zox Module's root folder, zox, where the index.php file is located. I renamed admin to reflect the proper name for the zox admin folder. I renamed include/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE folder to include/templates/ArkiTEC-HD Black, which is the template's name that I am using.

Then I installed the contents of the Store_Root folder into the zox store root, where index.php is located.

Problem:
In Admin, under Tools, I do not see see a new entry for Image Handler 2, which I can click on to "Install Image Handler". It appears that Image Handler 2 is not installing into zox, which is the Zen Cart Module for Xoopz 2.4. Fual Lightbox is working wonderfully under the Zox module. So, perhaps, I am installing into the wrong folder or template, I wonder???

firsst thing is you really should upgrade to zencart 1.3.8a for security reasons.

also in IH2...in the templates folder did you remember to also upload the files for the classic and default templates? they need to be uploaded regardless of what template you use.

make double sure you uploaded all the files correctly too

This is not completely true.. If you are not using the classic template, not installing the IH2 files to the classic template folder will not affect whether or not IH2 works...

Not familiar with how XOZ works, but if the core folder structure of Zen Cart is the same, you should just install IH2 to where ever your Zen Cart store is.

If that does not work, you may have to work with the XOZ module's author (I believe that is Hira), to see if there is some conflict with IH2 and XOZ.. This is possible given this particular author does have a track record for modules which do not play well with others.. (See WordPress on Zen for an example of this in action..) Hope I'm wrong, but given that you are working in a XOZ environment, it is hard to not factor in the posssibility that XOZ is the cause of the issues you are experiencing..

That said I would double check the install 1st and make sure you didn't miss any of the files in the upload. If you cherry picked files out of the install package, it's very possible that the module is installed incomplete..

I am using Image Handler 2 with Zen 1.3.8 for some reason when I click on the larger image, in the pop up box there is extra space on the left and right of the image. So you have to scroll to the right to see the whole image. Does anyone know where I can fix this?

TIA :)

Not likely an issue caused by IH2 at all. Image Handler very MINIMALLY affects the layout and look of images on pages. It's probably a stylesheet adjustment, which is not on topic for this particular support thread... Post your question in the forum with a link to your page so others can see your site and offer help..

Hi,

Image Handler2 helped my site pages load much faster, but
sometimes it changes my image permissions back to 666 in the bmz_cache directory. Then the large image zoom feature stops working untill I change permissions back to 644. Is there a way to stop this? Anyone else have is happen? I'm using 138a and have permissions set at 755 and 644.

Thanks.

the cache folder should be set to 755 or 777, i believe.

Image Handler could NOT possibly affect your folder permissions.. You need to work with your host and find out why your folder permissions are changing the way that they do.

I had similar problem. I found a fix in post 3809 of this forum and it did resolve the problem for me.

Is it possible to modify image handler2 so that an arrow would appear to let you scroll to the next image on the page?

or wait a few weeks/a month and upgrade to 1.3.9 lol

I have already tested IH2 and Zen Lightbox, both seem to work nicely. (so far LOL)

firsst thing is you really should upgrade to zencart 1.3.8a for security reasons.
