Zen Colorbox

stiggybaby:

I've put off installing lightbox or colorbox, but now need to do it, and have since upgraded to 1.5.3, so...

Is Colorbox 1.5.3 compatible? (either officially, unofficially, or should be)
Dunno.. haven't tested.. you can install, test, and report back

Re: Zen Colorbox

DarkAngel:

excellent question. I have been asked by some viewers if the nex and previous buttons at the top are not working...the little ones at the bottom are not easily seen and I do not have it set to do the slideshow thing.

Why not... just a matter of editing the css and changing the images... not my code or idea, just modified the existing css ... sample 3 from the colorbox site. it's the way I changed my site to... I couldn't see the small buttons.

Oh... colorbox works on 1.5.3 too...

Re: Zen Colorbox

I need a bit of help please. I am installing the colorbox plugin, and I already have the jscript_jquery.min.php file in my template (avonlee contempo). I don't understand about merging these or if one should replace the other:

colorbox:

<script type="text/javascript"> if (typeof jQuery == 'undefined') { document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E")); } </script>

avonlee:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="<?php echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'jscript') . '/jquery.easing.1.3.js' ?>" type="text/javascript"></script>

Re: Zen Colorbox

DivaVocals:

:yes: Yes, keep the latest greatest version... upgrade to meet the needs. The latest will have bug fixes... however... delete the jscript_jquery-min.js file.... why duplicate min when your loading it from Google! also, only keep one call to get min... don't need to duplicate the load, it will only server to slow your site down.

personally, I like to get the version of jquery I want to use and drop it into the script folder with the version within the name like
jscript_jquery-1.11.1.min.js, remove the calls to get it. old habits... if I can't read the code, I don't use it..

the down side to this, I'll have to go get the bug fixes myself... the upside, it's available to anything that requires it... let your template load jquary and comment out colorbox call...

colorbox works with jquary-1.11.1.min too... forgot I upgrade to it.... tested with jquary-1.11.0 on ZC 1.5.3

Re: Zen Colorbox

DivaVocals:

Nothing.. (which is why it's not mentioned in the readme..)

I saw the difference in version that you highlighted, BUT I do not understand the language and therefore do not understand if there is a difference in what is being done in the way the code is written (the 2 APPEAR to be completely different, so therefore I do not know if different things are being done)

OR are you basically saying that if I change this:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/**1.8.2**/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="<?php echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'jscript') . '/jquery.easing.1.3.js' ?>" type="text/javascript"></script>

to this:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/**1.10.2**/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="<?php echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'jscript') . '/jquery.easing.1.3.js' ?>" type="text/javascript"></script>

that it can be used WITHOUT even uploading the other?

OTHER QUESTION PLEASE:

When I use the default pop-up (colorbox false), the pop-up large image window closes upon clicking anywhere on it.

Should the colorbox close in the same way, by clicking anywhere on the image?

It closes upon clicking off the image area (overlay).

I take that back... when I click on the medium image from the product info page, the browser window changes to a window displaying the large image, with the image shrunk to fit the window/page size. When I click on the image it goes from fit to full size with a magnifying glass from - to +.

To return (close the large image) I must click on the back arrow on the browser (setting: Close on Overlay Click = true)

Esc also does not close it. Tried 2 different browsers too.

Re: Zen Colorbox

OHHHHHHH Divaaaaaaa!!!!!

I figured you would know better than me...does colorbox work with IH4 in 1.5.3?

I know that the Zen Lightbox does due to the shared file but was wondering if this mod would work too and if so what to do with the shared file. I don't think the colorbo file includes the needed info for IH, does it?

Re: Zen Colorbox

Hi Fellow Zenners

I really like the look of this addon and it installed without a glitch or so I thought... I have no tried to add additional images i.e. picture (Main) picture_2 and picture_3 and they show up in my products page as expected but for some reason only the main image "picture" open inside the color box. The two additional image open in what looks like the standard Zen Cart browser kinda thing. Please help

probably something in your install that was MISSED.. OR you have other modules also installed which overwrite some of the SAME files that this module modifies.. posting a link would help.. otherwise we'll all be guessing..

Re: Zen Colorbox

g2ktcf:

works for me!!

if you missed editing/installing the additional_images.php file or didn't setup additional images then it won't work. You can test additional images by turning off scripting in your browser and reloading the page. If during the test you still don't get additional images to work, then it's not colorbox...

I figured you would know better than me...does colorbox work with IH4 in 1.5.3?

I don't use IH so can't say if it works or not...

interesting....I verified each and every file in each and every directory yesterday and it did not work. Today, I simply uploaded the files again and it works like a charm. This sort of thing is really aggravating when you do not know what was actually wrong. Corrupted FTP???

Thanks

Since you STILL have not posted a link you are leaving us to GUESS what might have happened, but if you have IH4 installed and did not follow the instructions in the readme for installing both, then I MIGHT expect the issue you reported.. but again since you are making us GUESS.. shrug

Re: Zen Colorbox

well, I fixed it lol. So a link now does not help! :)

I had the link posted in the thread...then said to myself "why don't you transfer the files one more time just to make sure you are not missing something?". Then it worked.

http://radiant-holidays.com/radiant_holidays/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=185 is the example I was working with.

I mentioned the link because it's not just about helping YOU, others read/research the support threads to find answers for their own issues.. Details posted help us help you, and it helps others who read the support threads as well..

As I suspected you DO have IH4 installed and I will GUESS (since you didn't say..) that you installed IH4 AFTER installing Zen Colorbox.. The readme files for both modules have clear instructions for installing both Zen Colorbox and IH4 together... A re-install of Zen Colorbox would resolve the issue..

Re: Zen Colorbox

Ah, now I know what happened! My original IH4 install was incorrect! So IH4 did not actually install at that time. Zen Colorbox was installed after IH4 but that was BEFORE I corrected the IH4 install issue! I then found my IH4 install error which got IH4 installed. But this was AFTER Zen Colorbox was installed! And as I said right before this, I reinstalled Zen Colorbox one last time and that did indeed fix the issue. :)

In the interest of fully documenting this issue, I would like to address the contents of the readme files specifically.

I remember reading the below about Zen Lightbox in the IH4 readme....but I was not installing Zen Lightbox! :shocking:

If you are using Fual Slimbox or Zen Lightbox with Image Handler4 you MUST read the "Misc" tab.

I did fully review both readme files. Neither readme file specifically mentions each other by name. IH4 is fully 100% clear on installing IH4 with Zen Lightbox per the quote above. I did finally find a reference in the Zen Colorbox credits saying that Zen Colorbox was based on Zen Lightbox but that is not mentioned anywhere else I could find. But this was not until AFTER the my installation. Would it not be prudent to add Zen Colorbox to the IH4 readme by name and vice versa? I am not sure it would have helped me with my issue. But I am sure that I will not be the only one to miss this important connection.

Thanks
Chris

Would this mod work for the various popup pages eg info_shopping_cart. Struggling to work out which files to edit with what. Thanks

Not part of the core code.. Images only.. There is a BETA version in the authors Github repo which is in response to this issue: https://github.com/daniel-hopkins/zen-colorbox/issues/9.

Be advised that the code is UNTESTED and INCOMPLETE, and there is NO SUPPORT for it here really. In order to have continuity across a shop using this module, the plan was to address ALL the popups in the list. 3 remain outstanding, and the author has been busy and has not been able to do any further work on this feature. ANYONE who wants this feature fully functioning to fork his repo and pick up where he left off on this feature would be a hero! SHARE IT with the community!:smile:

I will be submitting an update to Zen Colorbox soon. The updated code is in my Zen Colorbox Github fork of the Zen Colorbox repo.. I submitted a pull request with my modifications to the master repo, but because the author has been busy he has not yet approved and incorporated my changes into his master repo.. So just know that IF you decide to install this version with this code and you also want the LATEST and greatest version, there will be discrepancies between my fork and the author's repo so you will have to merge them together..
