Zen 1.3.9 h
Came across an issue and curious how to go about fixing.
when adding products of similar names such as
31001FRW
31001FR

the later one to be added image handler auto-populates the product with the first product images and if I remove the images from the second product it removes it from the first.

These are in two different categories and each consist of 4 images each but are different images.

As I am filling in thousands of products Im bound to run into this more and more often. Any help is deeply appreciated.

Not really an IH2 created issue rather this is how Zen Cart identifies/manages additional product images.. My guess is that based on the behavior you are describing you have product images with the similar names and Zen Cart is interpreting them as additional images for another product as per these Zen Cart FAQs:
Why am I seeing images for other products on my product pages?

How do I add multiple images to a product?

How do I add more than one image of a product? I want to have a main image and also one or two other images that show more parts of a particular product. How/where do I add additional images to a product page? Thanks!


IH2 is meant to ease the work required to setup images for your store.. It works WITH default Zen Cart functionality, it does not replace it.. Here's some additional FAQs which discuss how product images work in Zen Cart..
Image Preparation - How-to

My images are distorted/fuzzy/squished, help?


Check out these FAQs and see if they help clarify how Zen Cart works with product images..

Any luck on my issue?

IH2 has been tested on all browsers and nigel did a LOT of hard work to ensure that the IH2 javascript is cross browser compatible.. What's going on with your site site now is probably a CSS layout issue, and not an IH2 issue.. Have you posted your question on the CSS/layout section of the forum??

[joyjoy]

Nope, I'll head over there now. Thank you!

[DivaVocals]

Thanks for the kind words Diva. We certainly went to a lot of trouble with this site, even taking our own product photos in a lightbox.

My problem is fixed. i had to change the write permissions for the bmz-cache directory, plus all subdirectories and files.

Cheers,

Scott.

Cool!!!

I just tested both of those pages and the larger image opened for both of them. I'm not a great expert with IH, so I don't want to give you bad advice, but I would clear the IH cache and the browser cache for starters, though, as it seems to be something specific to your computer that might be causing one to not open for you.

Thanks for looking at the site but that not the problem at all. The second page should have 4 images,not just the one. Thanks again,but it looks like it will never work correctly.I guess you get what you pay for. $10 for first person to figure out this problem. Paypal waiting.

I need help with IH2 as some of the catagories will show the extra images on my site but other will not. The picture upload without problems and I can see them in admin they just dont show up on the online catalog.
Any help would be great,Thank you

And if you look in the IH2 readme there is all kinds of helpful information to help your troubleshoot your site.. The USUAL reason for additional images not to show is that all of the images are not the same file format. If the main product image is a JPG, then the additional images must ALSO be JPGs too.. This is the only case I know of where IH2 will display the additional images as being there but the store will not display them.. (and I do include this info in the readme) A screenprint of what you see in IH2 would be helpful..

Not true.. IH2 works successfully for many people, and most problems are caused by incorrect installs or incorrect usage.. Suggest double checking your images as I suggested above..

Hi, when you say 'extra images' are you talking about 2nd and 3rd images for the product? Is the main product picture showing?

[DivaVocals]

Yep.. he posted examples of where it works and where it doesn't:

Well the most obvious thing I can think of is the naming conventions..

For example, product image; F1_Chassis_Corally.jpg - additional images should be;

F1_Chassis_Corally_02.jpg
F1_Chassis_Corally_03.jpg

etc.

Also, the Fual Slimbox is a great mod that works just fine with IH2; http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=830 - The product photos would look great in a lightbox. (Just a thought!)
