Image Handler 3 Support Thread (for ZC v1.3.9)

lingerieholic:

Yes, I have recently installed Simply SEO URLs, that maybe the reason. If that's the case, how do I fix it? ThanksI'm afraid this thread is not the place to resolve issues with another mod. I do suggest turning off SSU to confirm that it is indeed causing the issues with your images. Then you'll need to check in on the SSU thread and see if one of the community experts there can offer help getting SSU to work correctly with IH3 (the SSU mod author no longer offers support for his mods on the Zen Cart forum)

lingerieholic:

I am so scared to upgrade to 1.3.9h myself as I got quite a few addons. Can someone do it for me? of course with a fee is fine.This support thread is not the place to solicit help with a Zen Cart 1.3.9 upgrade.. (the forum admins frown upon open commercial discussions being conducted in the forum) It's not an issue for you to PM folks to ask about this though.. There used to be a commercial forum here for making these kinds of requests.. I believe that was replaced with the recommendation to use oDesk. (see: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=137)

lingerieholic:

RE your comments about IM3, I did clean the bmz_cache by clean it from admin area. Tools->IM3->Admin->Clean image cache. but not too sure what to do after...

ThanksI think you need to verify whether or not SSU is the cause of your issues by doing as I suggested previously and turning off SSU from the admin to see if the issues you first reported go away..

That said I believe you have a combination of issues not the least of which may be an incompatibility issue as IH3 was NEVER tested in a 1.3.8 environment. It's very possible that some of your issues may stem from the differences between 1.3.8 and 1.3.9. I would need one of the community experts here to confirm this of course as I am at work and do not know off the top of my head if this is indeed true.

Have you had a chance to try IH3 with 1.5.0?

I haven't yet, but it's in my plans for the upcoming weekend.. Maybe nigel has tried???

IH3 is NOT compatible with ZC v1.5
Several changes will be required, including admin changes and several other file changes. Lots of merging and rewriting needed.

Hi Nigel

Thought I'd posted a reply but can't find it

No errors in the cache file and I can't find any problems in terms of contention

In fact I am running it locally in XAMPP and it is working perfectly

what the problem ?

Hi All,

Got a slight problem with IH3.

Just installed this onto a new zencart 1.3.9h and the large images are not being created/reference properly.

This is a test site waiting to go live: test.swallowhealthydiet.com

The preview in admin shows the 3 images correctly.

Looks like it's linking to the images/large folder but i thought it was supposed to use the bmz_cache folder?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Looks like the issue relates to the darkbox js.

Any clues how I might be able to fix this?

Thanks

Ummm looks like you have SAFE mode on... IH3 won't run in SAFE mode

You need to direct your questions to the developers of your Darkbox mod.. Or disable the Darkbox mod and use something else that has been tested/developed to work with IH3..

Hi,

This is a dreaded Template Monster template that uses a js file in template/jscript.

I fixed this by removing the jscript_xdarkbox.js file from the template and installed the zen_lightbox. This now seems to be working fine!

Hi,

I notice some images are being generated without the watermark and are being pulled from the bmz_cache: http://test.swallowhealthydiet.com/index.php?main_page=specials

Not seeing what you are referring to.. all images look watermarked to me..

Try again now, I had replaced the specials page.

rickcj:

I don't know what it is you are asking here.. Now the images are not watermarked.. What exactly is the issue you are reporting??

This has a slightly different layout, and is using the bmz_cache images but they are not watermarked.

I wanted to know how it can use the correct image location but not the correct watermarked images and why non-watermarked images exist in the bmz_cache?

I wanted to know how it can use the correct image location but not the correct watermarked images and why non-watermarked images exist in the bmz_cache?How watermarks work is all based on having the correct image settings to begin with.. this is all explained pretty well in the IH3 readme.. Versus me posting verbatim what is already in the readme, can you tell me is there a particular section of the explanation in the readme which you are not clear on??

Also if your small image sizes for specials does not match your small image settings, IH3 has no way of knowing that your specials images are your small images.. (and therefore cannot apply the small image watermark)

I know we've been through this a million times, but I can't get watermarking to work.

What I've done:

• I've set ALL my watermarks (small, med, and large) to YES in Configuration>Images
• I've checked to be sure that my watermark images are in the following locations:
  images/watermark.png
  images/medium/watermark_MED.png
  images/large/watermark_LRG.png
• I've deleted everything except .htaccess and .keep and let Image Handler reload data.

Watermarking is still not working.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Likely reason as I just stated in my post earlier today is that you do not have your image size setting correct.. in particular ALL of the small image sizes. Please see the readme for more details..
