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

gilby:

I am having a small issue with IH3 on zen-cart 1.39h
When I clear the cached images if always leaves the folders 0, 3, 4 and f and all their files intact
All the other directories are erased as expected.
I can remove these directories (and their files) with ftp or cpanel's file manager.

It isn't causing any problems as such, but it leaves me curious as to what actually going on?
I have checked (and played) with permissions but it makes no difference.
No errors are being generated either

Anyone have an idea as to whats causing this?Not off the top of my head.. but it was fixed in IH4.. For now manually deleting the "remmnants" is the only solution..

Nah.. It's not you at all..

I can't remember off the top of my head what was done to fix this in IH4, I just know it is fixed..:smile:

v1.3.9h
Hi - I just moved a site to a new server and everything is fine (followed the procedure correctly) however image handler 3 now doesn't want to load 'additional' images. I have re-installed IH3 and Zen Lightbox and double checked the suffix naming of the additional images.

What else should I look at? Looking forward to some help here.

cheers,
Shags

Mine did the exact same thing. I finally had to go into admin/tools/ih3 andthen go into its admin to uninstall it totally...this will just take the code out and not mess with the images at all.

Same thing for lightbox---bear in mind mine did not work at all for either add ons...I had no lightbox and no ih3 just their controls.

If yours is functional then try to just uninstall IH3 from admin, then go into the server via ftp and reupload all the files for IH3 and this one from lightbox that goes into includes/modules/your template/additional_images.php

go back to admin in store and re-install IH3 and see if it does what it should when you refresh the browser page.

If lightbox also is misbehaving then use its uninstall sql script to uninstall it from admin too then do the same thing by re-uploading its files and then run the install sql script again.

sometimes everything works as it should when we move then other times the gremlins have other ideas.

a link also is helpful so we can see exactly what is happening at the store.

We have been informed of a minor XSS flaw that exists within the IH3 code for v1.3.9.

Mitigation for the flaw has been posted to the IH3 code in the plugins. Please go to the plugins page to download and update your store..

thanks to PaulM for notifying us about the flaw.

Thanks will do.

Installing this mod is beyond my capabilities and I've been quoted $150 by my host for the installation which I thought was really steep. What is a fair price? How long should this take? I am interested in this mod only to speed up my site.

Thanks.

I can do it for you. I am zc expert.

I have copied a site to then launch under a different (additional) url and obviously am changing content text enough that it will offset any 'duplicate content' issues however the concern is now images files 'names' as generated by IH in bmz_cache.

To create image codes different from original site do I delete all bmz_cache sub-folders (1,2,3, a,b,c etc) and also all images from the images folder then re-upload images?

many thanks, Mike

clearing the cache is part of the IH admin

thanks - will that serve the purpose I inquired about, change image codes?

I have a problem. I have no error file in the cache folder pertaining to this problem. I was fixing my paypal block and acciddently add a extra";" which took out the entire center section and the paypal block but I fixed it and now the store is as it should be ---- however -----

IH3 has stopped working on the main central pages. Up until the part disappearing it was working. Now the images there just do not have the popup images they just sit there when hovered.

I have changed image size settings/ uninstalled IH3/ cleared cache/ removed the files/ cleared cahe and history and cookies in browser/ downloaded fresh zip and reuploaded fresh files and still it refuses to work on the main page center blocks anymore. Prior to doing it all fresh it did work in the side boxes so not sure what happened. I can live with it that way but would rather have it back to full fuctionality if you please.

Any ideas?

My watermarks are not showing up on any images.

I made sure the watermark files were in the 3 image folders, with the correct names.
I made sure I renamed the admin folders and also the template folders correctly.
The permissions for bmz_cache are set to owner read write execute, the same as my images folder
The install seemed to go fine.
I have cleared cache an cookies and also tried 3 different browsers.

Where would you suggest I look to fix this problem. My site is sewchacha.com if you want to look at it.

thank you

You might start with turning Image Handler ON...

LOL, okay thank you. I thought that was only to "resize" the images and I didn't want my images resized. I remember turning that off because my images weren't showing up that on.

So that brings me to another question.

Either my "medium size" image isn't showing up, or my "large size" image isn't showing up. After some trouble shooting I have figured out that it depends on if I uploaded the image to my medium or large folder when I added my product. If I uploaded it to my large folder then the medium image doesn't show and if I uploaded it to the medium then the large image doesn't show up.

Is there a way to just add all of the images at once for both the large and medium image instead of going to each product and adding an image that is already added?

Thank you again!

The wonderful thing about this modification to ur stores is ---- YOU only upload the original size to the server...not lrg not med just the one original size.

If you have more than one image per product then upload them renaming them as such: nameofimage.jpg with the others appending _01.jpg, _02 etc until you have all of them for the one product uploaded.

Then tell the product what the main image is called and IH will do the rest. All images in the image same folder (main or a sub directory)not in the LRG/MED at all.

Then with the resize turned on it will be as efficient as it is supposed to be

Thank you very much, I just put all of my images into my main images folder and it worked! You all are great!
