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

Image Handler is being re-developed for v1.5 too..

It won't happen overnight.. Goodness gracious...

If you need it SOONER than folks in their free time can deliver, then INVEST in paying a developer to get it Zen Cart v1.5 ready for you.. In the meantime.. patience is a virtue..

Rinse and repeat..

Just to say you are a saint among developers - looking forward to this and if you want a tester give me a shout. This is my favorite zen cart mod so thank you very very much for taking this on.

ZC v1.3.9h
IH v3.0

I have been working with IH for over a month now every thing seems to work great until recently when I have to update product pictures.
The old picture deleted fine, but when trying to upload the new pictures, the system would just hang up (progress bar starts and just sits there). Would this be an issue with IH or my server? If it's IH where would I start looking? Many thanks.

It's likely an issue with your server or you've reached the file upload limits set for your store.. Neither of which is an issue caused by IH3.. How big is the image?? Zen Cart has settings which limit the size of file uploads.. If your image exceeds your maximum settings this could be a cause for the system hanging.. Again, this would not be an IH3 issue though as much as it is you would need to either adjust your file upload maximum settings (not recommended as the defaults are okay) or reduce your image file size..

Just out of curiosity, are you uploading the new picture in the IH3 administration manager or on the product page??

I've got a lot on my plate, so I have to do this when time permits.. Can't (won't) give an ETA..

Checked with server (Bluehost), they indicated no bottle neck or settings issues. The max file upload size is left at default (just under 2 Mb), never touch it since ZH install. My images range from 90K to 150K. I am using the IH admin (under tools) page to perform the upload.

The hang up is completely random but frequent, every 2-3 images uploaded will be interrupted with this timeout. Frequent enough to be a real headache.

Honestly I don't think this is IH3 or we'd see more reports of this.. In all the IH3 installs I've done, this has not been an issue.. Perhaps someone else might weigh in with more insight than I..

Sooooooo, is the 1.5.0 version ready yet???? :P

JUST KIDDING! :laugh:

Seriously though, I just installed the 1.5.0 ZC version for the first time and was installing the addons I typically use on previous versions and came to IH and wondered. That's how I wandered over here to see if there was an update.

Hurry up! But take your time ... no mistakes buster! :wink:

snickers Sorry, am in a bratty mood today.

Thank you for providing a wonder addon. Can't wait for your next version. I know it will take you a bit to get all the coding squared away - we'll be here when you are ready. :yes:

socks beyre in the eye

:laugh::laugh:

JUST KIDDING!!

Thanks for the laugh.. You know I am good about posting updates when I have one to post.. Just periodically check in..:smile:

Awesome Diva :) Super excited that you are working on IH for 1.5.0. You're a legend :D

Is there a way to link directly to a thumbnail when IH3 is installed? I have a product export as a pricefile which I send to shoppingagents but the only imagelink I can get to work in there is to the full image.
So in this file I would rather have a link to the thumbnail.

Is this possible and how?

Hi, I wish to edit my images to display like this;

If you could point me to the correct CSS code I can get to work. This is the page I wished to be edited

http://tubebackgrounds.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3

Thanks.

And HOW does your question related to the IMAGE HANDLER add-on???

Because if you are asking a GENERAL "how can I do this" question, you are in the wrong part of the forum.. This is the support thread for Imaged Handler 3. If you have other image related questions you need to create your own thread and ask you question there..

Sorry if this post isn't allowed, but I'm wondering if it's worth upgrading from Image Handler 2 to number 3, if it will solve my problem I'm having? This what I posted in the other support thread and I'm wondering if upgrading will resolve it...

Dothra:

Not sure if anybody will see this thread but I'm having a problem and I really need some help, I need my mum's site up asap and this is stopping me. I'm using 1.3.9 and using Image Handler 2, but I'm having a problem... whenever I create a product and upload a photo from her camera (usually called something like "014.JPG), it uploads fine. However when I go to Image Handler2 in the tools section and select the product, nothing appears underneath it, whereas it worked with a different product which was called "vernon something.png"... This is what I see:

Any ideas why this is? I'd love some help asap please, this is really frustrating me... Many thanks^^

ps- I think it might have something to do with the file extensions but I'm really not sure

Thank you

It's related due to the fact that the Image Handler 3 mod on my site is linked to the size of my pictures and also has the answer to fixing it!

Also, no need to get your nickers in a twist with the caps lock button, I don't really think you'll shout out certain works at me face to face...

If you are asking how to get your product listing page to look like the image you posted, you still are in the wrong thread.. Image Handler has nothing to do with the layout of the product pages. (it only mangaes the small images that appear on the product listing pages) Also Image Handler will not support the large sized product listing images you show in your example.. If you want this kind of customization you will need to post our question in it's own separate thread in the forum..

No nickers in a twist as you ASSume.. Your question was vague and it was unclear that it was a IH3 issue.. (still is..)
Tweezy:

I don't really think you'll shout out certain works at me face to face...I wouldn't?? Really?? Hmmm thanks for letting me know this..:smile:

The caps are emphasis, not screaming. It's not a personal attack. Relax and keep the rude comments about nickers to yourself.

Your question is not related to IH3 and needs to be posted elsewhere on the forum. Here's why:

IH3 makes re-sized and optimized copies of your original images (leaving the originals untouched) and stores them in a cache folder called bmz_cache. When a page on your site is called by a browser, these re-sized and optimized copies are loaded quickly, thus reducing loading time and bandwidth used.

The kind of edits you're talking about making to your images have nothing at all to do with IH3 or it's functionality. The editing you want to accomplish must be done by you (or a graphic specialist that you hire) before you ever even upload them to your server and long before IH ever copies/shrinks/optimizes them.
