or

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=273

both do the same, but i'd suggest setting up a test site and trying both... for me, i like zen lightbox the most

hope it helps and good luck!

Thank you for the reply.

I'm new to ZenCart... which modul would you recommend to achive a feature such as this one: http://www.huddletogether.com/projec...tbox2/#example

With the "next" and "previous" image feature?

thanks.

I'm happy to reply provide feedback if you start a new thread on the topic.. A general lightbox discussion is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY off topic for this support thread.. In the README file, we (ckosloff and myself) make suggestions on lightbox contributions we tested with the current version of Image Handler.. Please read throgh the README that comes with Image Handler, and then take a look through the free downloads for lightbox contributions which work with Zen Cart..

PLEASE start a new thread or checkout the support threads for the modules you are interested in if you want more feedback/discussion from the community on this topic..

Thank you for the reply.

This is covered in the readme BTW... Here is the LIKELY problem.. If your main product image and your additional images are not all the same filetype, then your additional product images WILL NOT DISPLAY. Image Handler DOES NOT KNOW the difference between a JPG or PNG file.. It merely uploads the files you select and re-names correctly them to follow Zen Carts rules for additional product images.. IF your images are of all different filetypes (Main image is PNG and additional images are JPGs for example) then your additional product images WILL NOT WORK

All of my images are in jpg. format.

They are all already named properly as well because I originally had them all working (additional images to) without using IH2.
ie:
PI5038 (main image)
PI5038_01 (second image)

When I installed IH2 I removed all of my images from my server that I had originally uploaded so that I could upload them using IH2.

I uploaded my main image via IH2.

Then I clicked on (Click to add a new image to this product) to upload the additional image for my product.

It is showing under IH2 but not under the products more information page.

I also have ADMIN > CATALOG > PRODUCT TYPES ... Product - General (Click Edit Layout button), setting for: Show Product Additional Images

... is set to 1.

Do you have any other ideas as to why it would not be showing up?

A link to your site would be helpful so we're not all guessing here.. Especially since I am not exactly sure of what you mean by a "more information page". Additional images show on the product detail page in the Additional Images section..

Ok sorry here is a link to one of the pages on my site: http://passionsignite.com.au/index.p...ex&cPath=96_97

If you click on GATHERED HALTER DRESS fourth from the top the "more information" page with be displayed.

I have uploaded the main image (white dress) along with two other images through IH2 (brown dress & pink dress) for this product. But the other two images are not showing.

for some of my own images this happened too and what I did was open them in photoshop then just do a "save as" to resave the image. For some odd reason the image got corrupted enough to mess with ih2.

after doing that they behaved like they should.

if your other products are supposed to have additional images then they do not show either.

question, did you make sure you put the IH2 files from includes/modules into the main modules folder or did you add them to a new folder named exactly like your template you are using?

you might try reuploading them again just in case something went wrong.

also in that same modules folder did you put the ones in the pages folder too?

Just found out the new forums are in effect ;-) Here's the new support thread for Image Handler 2 picking up where the old support thread left. I assume you have read the IH2 documentation already.

Cheers,

I would like to know if this handler lets you show images like
http://www.noahsclassifieds.org/v8ecomm/cars/4_Audi_TT
here the images can be looked at like a slide show one after the other
Point me in the right direction because I'll wind up spending hours looking through tall the posts before i even find what i am looking for. thanks.

I had uploaded all the files twice to make sure they were all there but for some reason when I uploaded the additional_images.php (under includes >modules) file for the 3rd time it seems to now be working.

I'll add in all my other additional images and let you know if they work or if I have any further problems.

Thanks for the help.

Hi All,

After I changed my Small image (Width & Height) in Admin/Configuration/Images... The image Hover stops working on those images!!!
I need to make my small images a little bit larger and I still want the hover to work.

How can I do that?
Has anyone figured this one out yet?

Best Regards,
